DEFINITION OF TERMS
ORGANISATION STRUCTURE
Mintzberg (1983) defines the organizational structure as; “…the sum of total in which its labour is divided into distinct tasks and then its coordination is achieved among these tasks.” There is no such thing as a best organizational structure. One needs to carefully consider the reason for why the organization is there and Mintzberg (1983) means that the structure should be selected to achieve an internal harmony, as well as alignment with the organization’s situation (Hatch, 2006; Mintzberg, 1983).
FORMALIZATION
Formalization is defined as the emphasis placed onfollowing rules and procedures when performing one’s job (cf. Pugh et al. 1968).
Formalization reduces confusion because staff know what they are expected to doduring product development and this helps coordinate effort, and facilitate productiveexchanges between managers (Thompson 1967). Further, formalization establishesmanagers’ role expectations and expected information flows from their counterpartson product development projects (Moenaert and Souder 1990a).
