and efficiency—and the wrong organization leads to disengagement, loss of focus, and<br />
wasted energy. This one-day workshop provides insights into getting organization design<br />
right—starting from a high-level perspective and aligning design to the strategy, clients,<br />
environment and culture of the organization. It also requires a deep understanding of<br />

organization design. The workshop is designed for both the management cadre and human<br />
resource professionals in the public service.<br />
Participants will learn:<br />

proven to drive results;<br />

– and when it gets in the way;<br />
• An approach to implementing organization design and supporting change;<br />
• Insights into matrix structures – how to make them work in practice;<br />
• Techniques for ensuring accountability and clarity;<br />
• Fundamentals of designing structures, teams and jobs – and the connective tissue that helps them<br />
work together.<br />
Using a case study approach and building a toolkit for the<br />
public sector, you can take away:<br />
• A fresh perspective on organization design;<br />
• An understanding of the theory and approach to strategic organization design;<br />
