Leading through a restructure: a practical guide to weathering the storm
If you’re a leader who is initiating organisation design (or being asked to), here are three guiding principles to help you while leading through a restructure.
Our approach to organisation design is collaborative, holistic and human. We take the time to get under the skin of your business, from strategy to structure and culture more broadly. We value the need to set up organisations to manage complexity and change through:
We partner with you to shape and lead your end-to-end OD process by acting as an extension of your team. Our OD experts help you to hold the pen when it comes to your future organisation, using the best of our collective experience.
We help you to grapple with legacy structures or challenges in how teams work together. By focusing on role clarity, decision-rights and agreed ways of working, you can put the tired old RACI in its place (the bin!)
We help you to build your internal organisation design capability through tailored development programmes and ongoing coaching. This supports your own people to shape and lead organisation design and effectiveness initiatives.
