In the past two years, many organizations have undergone a complete change in terms of their organizational structure. Disruptive innovations have led these changes. But, not all these changes have been successful. In fact, many organizations have even undergone through such drastic changes more than once in search of a perfect organizational structure.
But, why is this perfect organizational structure important and how can it be achieved? These questions have been answered by Steven Aronowitz, Aaron De Smet, and Deirdre McGinty in their article at McKinsey Insights. With their research, they have identified nine golden rules that must be followed for a successful organizational redesign. Some of them are:
- Focus first on the longer-term strategic aspirations
- Be structured about selecting the right blueprint
- Be rigorous about drafting in talent
- Establish metrics that measure short- and long-term success
- Manage the transitional risks
