Does your marketing department have a solid infrastructure? Do all of your company’s marketing
professionals understand their role/function in the organization? Is the chain of command easily
understood or only loosely communicated to marketing staff?
Organizational (org) structures provide a framework within a company that ensures all employees
are aware of their role and how they fit into the ecosystem of the business. Org structures present
themselves on a spectrum anywhere from a traditional, top-down approach to more collaborative,
flexible approaches. Org structures vary by company size, industry, and business needs. Ideally,
each company will create its structure based on their specific requirements, and continue to update
the org structure as changes occur, both internally and externally.
As marketing departments become more complex, with new technologies and initiatives appearing
all the time, it is important that Marketing builds and maintains an org structure that will enhance
their current and future plans.
This How-To Guide was designed to help you understand what the common org charts look like,
the pros and cons of each structure, and how to select the best org structure for your company.
