Answer 1 Week 8: Tutorial 7
Organisation structure has an important implication over the formation of the organisational strategy and accomplishment of organisational goal (Mallen et al. 2016). Generally there are four types of organisational structures such as functional, divisional, matrix and flat structure. Based on the type and the work culture of the organisation the structure is adopted. Safrodin, Abdullah and Luddin (2018) have discussed that there are various factors that contributes to the success or failure of the organisation. The factors that contribute to the success of the organisation are performing the surveys of the customers from time to time. This will help the company in understanding the position of the organisation and the manner, in which they are rating. 
There are many stakeholders of the organisation, which are both internal and external. The stakeholders are employees, managers, lenders, vendors, investors and the contractors. While asking and taking note of the perception of the stakeholders will help in analysing the factors that are working in favour of the organisation and the factors, which need to be improved.

This can be a negative aspect because most of the time it does not align with the real purpose of the organisational function. Sometimes the decision making process is also not taken with respect to the organisational need, which could cause to the failure of the organisational function.
