O que é Matrix Organisation? | Glossário de RH | BambooHR
A structure where employees report to more than one manager across functions and projects.
A matrix organisation is a structure in which employees have more than one reporting line — commonly a functional manager and a project or product manager — rather than a single, linear hierarchy. It is designed to balance deep expertise with cross-cutting delivery.
The approach suits organisations that run complex projects or serve multiple markets, allowing specialists to be shared flexibly across initiatives. It can improve collaboration and responsiveness compared with rigid silos.
The trade-off is complexity: competing priorities between managers, unclear accountability and heavier coordination. Clear role definitions, agreed decision rights and an accurate org chart that reflects dual lines are essential to make a matrix work.
