Organisation Design

Does your organisation design lead to higher performance?

Organisation design can be about reorganising, restructuring or change management. Organisations face recurring and continuous change, and in order to maintain or increase productivity, performance and profit, they need to effectively respond to these challenges. The problem lies in knowing what needs to change, how to change it and when is the best time for change. In this two day programme participants will work with a variety of case studies, tools, frameworks and models to learn the principles and application of organisation design.
