This PPT slide, part of the 144-slide Complete Guide to Strategy Consulting Frameworks PowerPoint presentation, presents the Greiner Growth Model, which outlines 5 distinct stages of organizational growth. Each stage is characterized by specific themes and challenges that organizations face as they evolve. The vertical axis indicates the size of the organization, ranging from small to large, while the horizontal axis represents the age of the organization, moving from young to mature.

Stage 1 is marked by creativity, where organizations are often in their infancy, focusing on innovation and product development. As they grow, they encounter a 'Crisis of Leadership,' which necessitates a shift in management style to provide more direction.

In Stage 2, the emphasis shifts to direction. Organizations begin to formalize processes and structures. However, this stage can lead to a 'Crisis of Autonomy,' as employees may feel constrained by the increasing bureaucracy.

Stage 3 introduces delegation, allowing for greater autonomy among teams. Yet, this can result in a 'Crisis of Control,' where leaders struggle to maintain oversight as responsibilities are distributed.

Stage 4 focuses on coordination and monitoring, which aims to streamline operations. Organizations may face a 'Crisis of Red Tape' due to excessive regulations and processes that can stifle agility.

Finally, Stage 5 is characterized by collaboration, where organizations seek to foster teamwork and innovation. However, this stage can lead to a 'Crisis of Internal Growth,' as the organization grapples with sustaining momentum and scaling effectively.

Understanding these stages is crucial for leaders aiming to navigate growth challenges and implement strategies that align with their organization’s current phase.
