Leading Organization Design: How to Make Organization Design Decisions to Drive the Results You Want
John Wiley and Sons Ltd, Dec 2010, Pages: 336
This book will help readers understand how to implement, evaluate, and adjust their organization design, set up governance and management processes to execute the design, and help the organizations leaders gain the intended impact of the organization. The books addresses four major questions that readers have:
- The Design Process: We dont have a lot of time. What are the steps and best practices for involving a broad group in the process of design so that we can start the change management along with the design decisions? How can we accelerate the design process without compromising good decision making?
- Governance: We have a complex organization. How do we design a strong governance framework? How can we make the interfaces, decisions, and management processes clear to everyone?
- Leadership: Were not sure our leaders are ready to manage this complexity. What do we have to be thinking about in terms of role design, management structures, and the skills they will need?
- Evaluating the Design: We need to know if our design is working. How do we assess and measure results? What information should we be attending to and how do we create learn and adjust as we implement? How do we make adjustments along the way if we need to change course?
Praise for Leading Organization Design
'Designing organizations for performance can be a daunting task. Kesler and Kates have done an admirable job distilling the inherent complexity of the design process into manageable parts that can yield tangible results. Leading Organization Design provides an essential hands-on roadmap for any business leader who wants to master this topic.' —Robert Simons, Charles M. Williams Professor of Business Administration, Harvard Business School
'Kesler and Kates have encapsulated their wealth of knowledge and practical experience into an updated model on organizational design that will become a new primer on the subject.' —Neville Isdell, retired chairman and CEO, The Coca-Cola Company
'In today's world of global business, organizational design is a critical piece of long-term success. Kesler and Kates have captured multiple approaches to optimize global opportunities, while highlighting some of the keys to managing through organizational transition. A great read for today's global business leaders.' —Charles Denson, president, Nike Brand
'Leading Organization Design has some unique features that make it valuable. It is one of the few and certainly only recent books to take us through an explicit process to design modern organizations. This is accomplished with the five-milestone process. The process is not a simple cookbook. Indeed, the authors have achieved a balance between process and content. In so doing, Kesler and Kates show us what to do as well as how to do it.'—Jay Galbraith, from the Foreword
'Sheds light on the challenges of organization design in a complex enterprise and more importantly provides aninsightful and practical roadmap for business decisions.'—Randy MacDonald, SVP, human resources, IBM
