When is a new organizational structure required?
Organizations evolve incrementally over the years. Functions change as well. As external demands and priorities change, the organization structure may not be sufficiently flexible and responsive to these changes. Or the current organizational structure may not support the future vision of the organization in the way ahead.
Key organization design steps
- Confirm strategic directions and priorities in the way ahead
- Assess the existing delivery/organizational structure (current state assessment)
- Develop and assess delivery model options/structural options
- Describe the preferred organizational structure
- Implementation planning/ change management.
