Under what conditions would it be advisable to use a strong matrix instead of a dedicated project team, or vice versa?

Answer

The strong matrix should be recommended when the organization cannot afford to have people work full-time on the project and when the culture of the organization supports the dual authority structure.

Explanation:

The two structures have their respective uses.

Dedicated project teams are recommended when speed is essential to success and there is not enough project work to warrant a formal matrix structure. Dedicated project teams are also recommended when the prevalent culture within the organization does not support collaboration and innovation.
