For a list of organizational structures in Project Management, and a small comparison, please check the link below (on the side).
An individual reporting to two or more managers typically works in a matrix organizational structure. In this setup, employees have both a functional manager (responsible for their skill development) and a project manager (responsible for their work on specific projects). This allows for more flexibility and collaboration across different parts of the organization.
A matrix organization is organized into functional departments, but a project is run by a project team, with members coming from different functional departments. On the spectrum of a project manager's authority, matrix organizations are in the middle of two extremes: functional and projectized organizations.
A project is typically performed inside a company called the performing organization, which creates an environment for the project called the project environment. The projects are influenced by the project environment, which is shaped by many elements, such as organizational culture, organizational structure, enterprise environmental factors, organizational process assets, and the maturity of the organization. To summarize, Yes the organizational environment within which a project is being executed can have a significant impact on the outcome of the project.

A box structure is a type of organizational framework typically used to represent the hierarchy and relationships within an organization or project. It is often depicted as a series of interconnected boxes, with each box representing a specific role, department, or component. Box structures help to visualize reporting lines, responsibilities, and communication pathways within a system.
Projects are supported by organizational infrastructure because the better organized the organizational infrastructure is, the easier it is to organize and develop the project.
The Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) is very important (even fundamental) in Project Management as its a tool for defining and organizing the deliverables in a easy to view hierarchical structure. It is very helpful for both the Project Managers and the team members alike.

For a matrix structure to succeed, clear communication and collaboration between departments are essential to avoid confusion over reporting relationships. Strong leadership is necessary to facilitate decision-making and conflict resolution, ensuring that project goals align with organizational objectives. Additionally, well-defined roles and responsibilities help prevent ambiguity, allowing teams to work effectively across functional and project boundaries. Finally, a culture that supports flexibility and adaptability can enhance teamwork and innovation within the matrix framework.
