Modern businesses experience many challenges in the face of the digital economy, with a need to balance agility against scale. This Case Notes Compendium draws together several examples of how businesses are responding to such challenges and adapting their organisation design to be fit-for-purpose in today's competitive, global and technology-driven landscape.

Case studies and topics include:

  • Achieving Enterprise and Market Agility at Avanade and Unilever
  • Agility and Digital Capability at L'Oreal
  • Strategic Decentralisation at Imperial Brands
  • Using OD to Develop Digital Capability at Rolls-Royce and Hilton
  • Organisation Design and Strategic Direction Change at Tate &Lyle, and more.

The case studies and accompanying commentary are drawn from our research report - Designing Adaptable Organisations for Tomorrow's Challenges.

Designing Adaptable Organisations for Tomorrow's Challenges

The context for organisations today is characterised by complexity, rapid technological advances, and digital disruption. Organisations are experiencing fundamental shifts in their business models and have to constantly reinvent themselves in order to remain competitive. Indeed, 89% of respondents to our survey said their organisation had either recently reorganised or had a reorganisation underway. This research report reviews the latest thinking in organisation design, exploring how organisations are seeking to resolve a core tension: how to balance the need for agility and responsiveness to customer needs while achieving the benefits of operating at a global scale.
