title: [Implementation of matrix functional frame in Dental Faculty of Academic Hospital for tooth and mouth surgery, University of Pretoria].
abstract: Deficiencies, characteristic of professional bureaucracies, such as poor co-ordination and telescopic vision, were identified in the Oral and Dental Academic Hospital, Faculty of Dentistry, University of Pretoria. Within a hybrid, formed between this professional bureaucracy and the Department of Health Services and Welfare, lies the potential for conflict, created by the difference in mission statements of the two systems, the deficiencies of which are clearly manifested. In an effort to address the problem, an organisational structure has been developed which could function as a matrix, thereby facilitating management through optimal communication and decisions by consensus.
