"The pawns are the soul of chess" (Philidor)
In chess we call structure to the provision that adopt pawns of both sides on the board.
For the particularity of movement of pawns that can't back the way they came and eat in a lateral move, the pawns are pieces that can be locked so that real walls constructed to limit the game to other pieces.

According to these distribution can talk both closed positions where there is a significant amount of pawns and in more or less static state or open positions where the board has a clear image of pawns, either because they are not or because they are in their initial positions.

A concept that comes in chess as you progress in learning is that the structure marks how you should play. This is an idea that has already worked in the century XVIII by Philidor and with more or less ornaments is still in force today.
The pawn structure is relatively stable and therefore largely determines the strategic nature of the position. Weaknesses in the pawn structure, once created, are usually permanent and often are arguments to attack by the contrary.

In the absence of these structural deficiencies, it is not possible to classify a pawn formation as good or bad - because it depends on the position of other pieces. However, the pawn formation determines the overall strategy of the players greatly.
For a moment try to put these ideas to the world of business, does it make sense to think that the activity, objectives, strengths and weaknesses of a product or a company, depends on the structure that supports it? Can you make moves a company taking advantage of the structural deficiencies of the competition?

As in chess, how to "play" of each company, is conditioned and directed from its structure.
In chess to read the kind of game that asks each structure is basic, in a company, knowing what allows (or not) to the structure, can make the difference between success and failure.
Subsequent posts will continue to develop these ideas. Meanwhile, I leave a position where the structure indicates how to play both sides
