ORGANIZATIONAL DESIGN

Organizational design involves the processes of finding, formulating, improving, implementing, and auditing the structures and major processes of an organization.

Organizational design is a field that began in the 1970's. But throughout history organizations have vexed and humbled their leaders. In fact, the first recorded management consulting project had God as the advisor and Moses as the client (Book of Exodus). As we learned, God did not recommend committees, teams, integrators, and trendy horizontal linking positions. Even He had difficulties in obtaining implementation.

A properly managed and led organization is a source of competitive strength. Defeat is too often snatched from the mouth of vistory by poorly designed and led organizations. In fact, an organization is one of the few sources of competitive advantage under the direct control of management.
