Explore a modern Organizational Design Framework by ex-McKinsey & Big 4 consultants. Enhance performance through a structured 6-phase approach. Organizational Design Framework Primer is a 28-slide PPT PowerPoint presentation slide deck (PPTX) available for immediate download upon purchase.
Organizational Design (OD) is a structured approach to aligning the structure, processes, and systems of an organization to achieve its strategic objectives and enhance performance. It encompasses various components, including defining the purpose of reorganization, determining supportive behaviors, and designing the organizational structure accordingly.
Organizations undertake OD for a variety of reasons, including increased Employee Engagement, Agility, Efficiencies, Innovation, Competitiveness, among other benefits. Despite the potential benefits, less than 25% of OD efforts are successful.
This PowerPoint presentation serves as a primer to a modern Organizational Design Framework, which addresses both the structural and behavioral elements, and is defined by a 6-phase approach:
1. Current State Assessment (CSA)
2. External Benchmarking & Market Analysis
3. Vision & Goal Setting
4. Design Iteration & Prototyping
5. Behavioral Change Management & Communication
6. Continuous Improvement
Each of this phase is explained in detail. This emphasis on effecting long-term Behavioral Change is inspired by BCG's thought leadership on "Smart" Organizational Design, which is also introduced in this presentation.
This deck on Organizational Design also includes templates you can use in your own business presentations.
This presentation is an excerpt from the complete Organizational Design Framework presentation, which dissects each phase in further depth, as well as covers more topics and frameworks.
The Current State Assessment (CSA) phase of the Organizational Design Framework focuses on evaluating an organization’s existing structures, processes, roles, and culture to identify inefficiencies. Key activities include structured interviews with stakeholders to gather insights on 5 critical dimensions: Organizational Structure, Roles & Responsibilities, Reporting Relationships, Decision-Making, and Internal Communications. Resource evaluation across 16 organizational attributes is essential. Workflow mapping tools help identify redundancies and bottlenecks, while advanced analytics assess productivity metrics and collaboration indices. Methods such as surveys, focus groups, and observational studies gauge the impact of organizational culture on decision-making. Deliverables from this phase include a comprehensive report on the current state, identified inefficiencies, workflow maps, an assessment of organizational culture, and a data analytics report on productivity and collaboration metrics.
This PPT slide critically examines traditional Organizational Design (OD) approaches, highlighting the need to balance structural changes with employee behavior understanding. Conventional methods emphasize organizational levers—structures, processes, metrics, incentives, information systems, and training—often overlooking their impact on employee behavior and performance. The section "Common Approaches" outlines typical levers, suggesting a rigid framework that may not address human behavior complexities. In contrast, "Smart Design" advocates for understanding the interplay between people and behaviors. It posits that behaviors drive performance, challenging the traditional view that levers directly determine results. This perspective reveals the risk of unintended consequences if organizations fail to grasp how levers affect behavior. Ultimately, comprehending behaviors and their rationales is essential for effective change management, integrating structural and behavioral elements to enhance performance and achieve desired outcomes.
This PPT slide outlines the final phase of the Organizational Design Framework, focusing on Continuous Improvement. Key activities include establishing a framework for periodic organizational reviews to align with strategic goals and adapt to market conditions. Leveraging insights from Change Management and Communication creates continuous feedback loops, enhancing agility and responsiveness. Fostering a culture of continuous improvement involves promoting internal innovation platforms and suggestion schemes, empowering employee contributions to design evolution. Setting milestones for periodic reassessments and utilizing frameworks like the Balanced Scorecard help monitor organizational design success. Developing and periodically reassessing a Behavioral Strategy ensures integration of insights from previous phases, promoting alignment and adaptability. Key stakeholders include the Senior Leadership Team, Business Strategy Units, HR, and Continuous Improvement Teams, with deliverables such as the Framework for Periodic Organizational Reviews and Organizational Design Performance Reports supporting effective organizational design.

"As a small business owner, the resource material available from FlevyPro has proven to be invaluable. The ability to search for material on demand based our project events and client requirements was great for me and proved very beneficial to my clients. Importantly, being able to easily edit and tailor
the material for specific purposes helped us to make presentations, knowledge sharing, and toolkit development, which formed part of the overall program collateral. While FlevyPro contains resource material that any consultancy, project or delivery firm must have, it is an essential part of a small firm or independent consultant's toolbox.

saved. I encountered a download issue during the ordering process. However, a quick email to Flevy's support team, even on a Sunday (!!!), resulted in assistance within less than an hour, allowing me to download the content I needed. Fantastic job, Flevy! I give 5 stars for both content/price and customer service. Thank you!
