Organizational Structure of Yahoo

Yahoo! Organizational structure:

The link above provides an organizational structure of Yahoo! After looking at the ten diagrams on organizational structures from the PowerPoint, it would seem that Yahoo appears to have a rather tall hierarchical structure consisting of the CEO, CFO, eight directors and other managers in charge of different departments and also of bureaucracy, in which orders are passed down along the chain of command. They possess major responsibilities and the authority of the delegation of tasks to their staff for the daily operations of the company. However, it would also mean that they would have a high level of accountability and would be held responsible for the success or failure of tasks. Furthermore, since Yahoo operates in many countries in the world, their structure could also be based on geography, as a result, it would allow the company to become more aware to local differences and consumer needs.

Yahoo also seems to have a more decentralized structure in which different decisions are made depending on various departments by the department director. It would result in a narrower span of control which makes communication between departments more effective within departments in the company.
