CompTIA Project+ (PK0-005) — Question 333

A project manager does not have the power to reward team members when they accomplish something or penalize them when they fail to perform well. As a result, the project manager is having issues with team members. Which of the following describes this organizational structure?

Answer options

• A. Flat
• B. Projectized
• C. Organic
• D. Functional

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, Functional, because in a functional organizational structure, project managers typically have limited authority and rely on department heads for team member management. Options A (Flat) and C (Organic) suggest more autonomy and flexibility, while B (Projectized) indicates that the project manager would have greater control over team dynamics.
