Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are True and Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A). Explanation: Assertion (A): In a functional structure, change is difficult because employees are rigidly organized by specialized roles, making it less flexible. Reason (R): Employees in a functional structure are trained in one specific area, which limits their perspective and adaptability, making change harder. The Reason directly explains why change is difficult in a functional structure—because of the narrow specialisation of employees. Thus, both are true and Reason is the correct explanation.
