In a world of constant change, organizational design has become one of the most critical capabilities for leaders, HR professionals, and consultants alike. A company’s structure can either enable strategic execution and agility—or become a silent obstacle that slows innovation and performance. Strategic Organization Design: Building a Leading Company provides a complete, practical roadmap for creating organizations that are fit for the future.
The course begins by building a solid foundation in the core concepts and models of organization design, including Galbraith’s Star Model and Weisbord’s Six-Box Model. You’ll learn what design truly means beyond the org chart—and how it connects strategy, people, processes, and rewards into one cohesive system.
You will then follow a step-by-step design process, from scoping and diagnosing current structures to crafting new designs and managing implementation. Through real-world examples and diagnostic tools, you’ll learn how to clarify decision rights, build governance mechanisms, and lead successful transitions.
Finally, the course explores modern organization models such as agile, networked, and self-managing systems—while addressing the critical human side of design: culture, communication, and change management. You’ll also discover how to measure design success and embed continuous improvement into your organization.
By the end, you will be equipped with the strategic mindset, analytical tools, and practical frameworks to design (or redesign) organizations that are adaptive, high-performing, and ready to thrive in the future of work.
