Organization Design

The strategy is in place, people are on board, and things are rolling… but resources aren’t in the right hands to get the job done! IPI can help you align organizational structure with key priorities and objectives – quickly. Heading in a new direction, and need to build the momentum to get there? Take the next critical step, organization design,  with an engaged and focused team.

The goal of organizational design is to convert an ordinary system into a high performing one. Growth strategies, constraints, mergers, and any other shifts in normal operations require reimagining and redesigning. IPI’s rapid prototyping and design sessions help you develop and instill new roles, policies, processes, structures, and systems.

We help you:

  • Conduct a baseline organizational assessment
  • Envision and develop a new organizational model, including success metrics
  • Create an Implementation Roadmap
  • Develop an organizational design that is flexible and drives business objectives

Key differentiators of IPI's approach to organization design are high-engagement and speed. Advantages include:

  • Commitment through inclusion: By including more participants in the design process, diverse perspectives are incorporated and commitment is increased.
  • Priority information: The success of a rapid cycle is determined by the quality of information presented. Rapid Prototyping forces participants to quickly pinpoint information most relevant to the obstacle at hand.
  • Organizational Agility: Prototyping can serve as a method for rapid redesigning, allowing organizations to quickly change directions in order to respond to emerging factors and changing times.

Organizations strive to optimize both their technological and human resources, and the generative design process employed by IPI change management consultants allows you to maximize your potential even in the most volatile of times. Rapid Prototyping abandons a traditional linear process in favor of one that incorporates as many participants as possible in order to create results that are self-sustaining. It is a method that allows an organization to achieve in days, or even hours, what had previously taken months. Rapid Prototyping can be used to aid in the creation of high performance work systems and to take existing systems from good to exceptional.

So the strategy is complete. It’s bound up in a nice binder containing a beautiful series of strategies and goals wrapped up in a bow with objectives. It’s bound up. Now, how do you “unbound” human potential and engage leaders and teams in implementation? Many strategy efforts produce 100% perspiration but little inspiration or innovation. [...]

Nearly every organization uses strategic planning. Few, however, leverage its full power. Too often people adopt the “usual” definition of strategic planning that goes something like this: strategic planning is a plan or a blueprint for achieving a vision or overarching goal. While this is true and important, I would contend that strategic planning, at [...]

What form of governance exists in your company or network? How do you think about governance? What is the role of governance and who is involved in carrying out that role? The answers depend on what we see as current reality. My Nov. 8 blog on this topic (Part One) described Appreciative Governance (AG) at [...]
