Organization Structure Benchmark

Slide Content

The slide compares two business models: the Subsidiary Model and the Distributor Model, explaining various functional areas within an organization. The Subsidiary Model includes "Subsidiary General Management in a New Market" and functional areas like Commercial, Finance, Marketing, Customer Service, and HR. "Support Functions of Parent Company" complement it. The Distributor Model includes "Distributor Organization in a New Market" with the same functional areas. Each functional area is paired with an icon that illustrates its role, providing a visual representation of the organizational structure within two distinct business approaches.

Graphical Look

• Two vertically aligned side-by-side sections titled "Subsidiary Model" and "Distributor Model".
• Each section contains a vertically stacked list of functional areas accompanied by icons.
• Icons depict a ship for Commercial, a money bag for Finance, a megaphone for Marketing, a headset for Customer Service, and three figures for HR.
• Both models share an identical structure and iconography but have a unique top-level label and explanatory note.
• A centered circular icon with a bridge symbolizes the benchmark, or comparison, between two models.
• The design scheme uses a gradient of different colors for each functional area. The slide presents a clean design with sharp segmented sections representing each model. The use of color gradients and meaningful icons makes it both visually appealing and informative.

Use Cases

• To compare the organizational structures when expanding into new markets during a business strategy presentation.
• For educating employees about the different operational models the company might deploy.
• In management training sessions discussing business setup and structure varieties.
• As part of a presentation to stakeholders to highlight the advantages and support mechanisms of each model.
