There are different types of structures including centralization, formalization, sales growth, integration, differentiation, autonomy, administrative component, delegation of authority, adaptiveness or adaptation, production, efficiency and job satisfaction.

The population of the study comprised 4, 575 employees of Globacom at junior, senior and management cadres. Out of the 368 questionnaires administered, 327 copies were returned, indicating a response rate of 88.2 %.
The findings showed that employees unanimously agreed that their organization has satisfactory performance in the areas of profitability, sales growth and market share. The opinions of the respondents reached a consensus that the organization is centralized, formalized and complex.
On the premise that the probability value of the estimated coefficients of the independent variables is less than the standard 0.05, the following alternative hypotheses were accepted. Centralization has significant effect on profitability position of Globacom Limited; Formalization has significant effect on market share of Globacom Limited; Complexity has significant effect on sales growth of Globacom Limited.
