Organization Design and Business Process Management


Organization Design and Performance Management

Process-based organizations are uniquely equipped to yield high performance output. To accomplish this goal, there are many variables that must be brought to the fold. For example, a leading practice of “Input, workflow, resources, tools, to output” is of little performance consequence when it does not take into account the internal and external “customer experience,” its dynamics, and its reporting mechanism that yield the “why” of performance.

Organization and Job designs

Organization and job design remains a contested debate. However, agreement exists that organization design must encourage performance at the lowest denominator in enterprise performance—at the job design level. The challenge that often surfaces is how to design these two dimensions into a single integrated system—one that promotes innovation, high performance, and accountability in a cost-cutting global economy?
