Designing your Organization

When strategy, structure, processes, rewards and people are not aligned, gaps result. These gaps burden the management and prevent the company from achieving the desired results. It is necessary to have tools to identify these misaligments. 

This book summarises and updates the classic approach to organisational design. The themes listed above; strategy, capabilities, structures, processes, people and rewards, are incorporated into a star model. In this star model, the interdependencies between these themes are described. The focus from the outset is on how strategy can be translated into design criteria. A blueprint for many of us involved in the design and implementation of organisations.
