Ep. 13: Who does What ? Where? And Why? Who tells whom what to do? - Aligning the "Division of Labour" with your organisation’s purpose, strategy and financial goals
Welcome to the third and final instalment of our mini-series on organisation design. We believe that aligning your organisation's design with the culture and markets it operates in can significantly reduce the need for costly redesigns and organisational reshuffling.Today, we will delve deeply into the overarching theme of "division of labour," a concept many companies consider strangely as a given. By clearly defining roles and responsibilities, we believe an organisation can mitigate friction between functions, positions, and hierarchical levels, allocating resources to work collaboratively for the firm's customers and products.
Enjoy!
Ep. 12: Stopping constant organizational re-design by fixing the functional design
What is the correct procurement setup? Central, de-central, or hybrid? If you had asked this question before 2010, many of my peers and I would have provided a very different answer then vs now. Life moved on, and today’s world requires more sophisticated, agile functional designs.
This is the second instalment of the mini-series about organisation design. We believe that if you design your organisation in line with the culture and the surrounding markets, the costly need for re-designing and organisational reshuffling can be minimised.
