Operating Model Design
Organisations today need to design structures and ways of working that reduce handoffs and link cross-functional delivery to strategic outcomes. Most organisations struggle to find a fit-for-purpose design without a cookie-cutter approach.
This workshop is built from our hands-on experience leading large-scale operating model design and change.
An organisation's operating model defines how it can best align its activities to deliver its strategy.
In this one-day workshop we will work through the five interconnected elements in every operating model
- Structure - How your business units and teams are designed
- Governance - How the different parts of your organisation stay aligned and ensure quality
- Ways of working - How individuals work together within and across teams
- Capabilities - What your organisation can deliver that gives you a competitive advantage
- Leadership - How your leaders show up and lead in this new system of work structure, governance, way of working, capabilities and leadership.
We will share our tools and lessons from leading large-scale operating model transformation - from finding an appropriate design to linking strategy with operating model choices.
We will also cover how to use Team Types and Taxonomy - linking those to Ways of Working, and how to hold the integrity of enterprise models end to end.
