Organization Design

A Chain is Only as Strong as its Weakest Link

We assess the strengths and weaknesses of the current organization and design a robust new structure. In the current-state assessment, our methodology highlight areas where the organization presents challenges, which might lie in its structure, linkages, or culture, and help define criteria to guide the design process. In the design itself, our design tests help clients make choices on critical questions such as the optimal business-unit structure; the role of the corporate center and shared services; and capabilities needed for pivotal roles.

Linking organization design to strategy, we make sure the design focuses management attention on the critical operations of each business unit, region, or product to realize value through strategic prioritization. Be it international expansion, cost-cutting, or growth through acquisitions, our unique implementation approach helps our clients quickly realize the economic value determined by the redesign.

A well-designed operating model provides a clear and consistent blueprint for how resources are organized and operated to achieve a company’s strategic priorities. We partner with clients to help them design and implement operating models that translate strategy into effective execution.

No company can turn in a great performance without great people. High performers learn to assess their talent pipeline, deploy their most promising people more effectively in critical decision areas and reduce their demand for scarce skills. As such, we develop leadership talent and ensure that leaders work effectively together.
