I think matrix organization structure is most ideal for collaboration projects. To break down what a matrix is, it is an organizational structure that distributes responsibilities among two or more dimensions. A matrix organization structure takes multiple perspectives into account and makes one head person to run more than one group. The quality of decesions can then be enhanced because different perspectives are taken into account. Resources are utilized more effectively since each organization have different specialists needed in various other departments. It is more expensive to have duplicates throughout the collaborated project. Therefore, using a matrix structure will give the opportunity of sharing resources.
