About the Course
As organizations flatten hierarchies and reorganize around cross-functional teams, structure and job design increasingly determine performance more than strategy alone. Structural agility and disciplined talent reallocation are increasingly seen as key differentiators between organizations that adapt quickly and those that remain stretched and inefficient.
This programme builds organizational development capability distinct from change-process management: diagnosing organizational structure, culture and capability gaps, and designing structural, role and talent-system interventions. Participants apply OD diagnostic instruments, structure and job-design tools, and culture-change methodology grounded in current organizational-design practice.
Participants leave with an organizational diagnostic report and a structural redesign proposal for their own institution, equipping HR, OD and management consulting professionals to lead structure and design projects rather than only change-process rollouts.
Target Participants
Organizational development and HR professionals, Internal and external management consultants, Senior managers responsible for restructuring, Talent and workforce planning specialists, and Executives leading organizational redesign.
