Answer to Question 1
Mintzberg has five designs with five elements common to all designs. Simple structure is small, informal, and with centralized decision-making. The strategic apex element dominates this form. Machine bureaucracy has a highly complex structure and formal climate with clear lines of authority. Work is highly specialized and it works in a stable environment. The technostructure element predominates. Professional bureaucracy consists of highly trained specialists. Complex decision-making and authority rests with the specialists, and it is dominated by the operating core element. Divisional structure is a large organization form where sets of autonomous units are coordinated by managers. The middle-line element is crucial here. Finally, the Adhocracy, another simple structure, is highly informal with decentralized authority. The support staff element is key here.
