Description
This workbook and CD-Rom is filled with simple solid approaches and tools to help leaders, managers and consultants in OD and HR build the capability to assess and align their organization in multiple dimensions. It is organized around the fundamental concepts of organization design that a manager needs to know, and the basic elements of the organization design process.  Using these essential notions, the book then applies them to more specialized business situations, including: customer-centric design; using a “front-back” structure to achieve customer, product, and geographic focus; global organizations; matrix structures; and the challenges of centralization vs. decentralization.
