Strategic Planning and Organizational Restructuring 

• • Imagine you are the HR director of a growing international staffing organization that services both North America and South America. The CEO has realized that the HR group, which is currently decentralized, is in need of restructuring to handle the expected growth of the business. The CEO has asked for your opinion on how to best restructure the firm. Based upon your knowledge and research, recommend an organizational structure (e.g., functional, matrix, or projectized) that will provide for the growth of the firm. Also, assess the influence that this project will have on the HR group’s customers who are located throughout the Americas.
