Abstract: Business failure is not limited to start ups. In America alone between 1990 and 2000, there were over 6.3 million business start-ups and over 5.7 million business shut-downs. Risk of failure can be greatly reduced through effective organisational design that encourages high performance and adaptability to changing circumstances. Organisation design is a straightforward business process but curiously managers rarely talk about it and even more rarely take steps to consciously design or redesign their business for success. This new Economist guide explores the five principles of effective organisation design, which are that it must be:
- driven by the business strategy and the operating context (not by a new IT system, a new leader wanting to make an impact, or some other non-business reason)
- involve holistic thinking about the organisation
- look to the future, not just the present
Contents note: Introducing organisation design; Models, approaches and designs; Organisational structures; Planning and sequencing the organisation design; Measurement; Stakeholder engagement; Leadership and organisation design; Culture and group processes; Morphing not future proofing;
