- www.ashridge.org.uk/aod. This lecture on how to design organisation structures describes the best tips from the course Advanced Organisation Design. The 4-day course runs at Ashridge Business School, near London. It is Europe's top course on this critical competence.
For my own memory:
1.Take a stakeholder perspective. Engagement and loyalty from -all- stakeholders internally and externally.
2. Make sure there is a "box" for each strategical priority. The structure should indicate the company's true strategy.
3. Draw org charts as org "models" - not just reporting lines.
4. Don't over-design it. Just enough to move forward with freedom for others to implement. Organisations are complex.
5. Go for a "unit structure" where each unit has autonomy to deliver and not value chain (eg make, buy, sell) or matrix
6. Develop design principles with exec group before presenting options.
You did an amazing job by summarizing it. Thank you.
Helpful tips. I particularly like the idea of having a box in the structure chart for every priority - nice way of linking strategy with structure
Nice movie-refreshing my memory after having followed the course in October last year!
Structure gets too little attention in many organisations. Get the structure right and you make everything much easier for those who work in the organisation. Good video!
Top tips indeed. Thank you for this. I must see if I can get a budget for your course.
Thanks for the brief but powerful presentation.
Fantastic video. I will be mindful of all this when I lead on org design in my roles.
very simple and very helpful.
Do you guys need management? for help into educational purposes or HR advices ?
There is a logical flaw in Nr. 5: A "unit structure" cannot be product-based.
