global geographic division structure
global matrix structure
global product division structure

Explanation:

Analyze the organization chart

Using the Organizational Structure knowledge point, we examine the hierarchy. The President is at the top, with staff/functional departments (International, Law, Engineering, Finance) and a primary "Product Division" line.

Identify the division type

Using the Global Product Structure knowledge point:

• Under "Product Division", the organization is divided into product-based groups: "Global Truck Components", "Global Auto Components", "Global Airplane Components", and "Global Bus Components".
• This structure organizes worldwide operations around specific product categories rather than geographic regions or functions.
• Therefore, this is a global product division structure.

Answer:

• Global geographic division structure
• Global matrix structure
• Global product division structure (Correct answer)
• Global functional structure
