Common Problems
Ambitious organisations typically struggle to create, let alone adopt, an organisational structure that allows them to scale, whilst retaining strong levels of control exercised through delegated responsibility. This lack of structure invariably results in staff failing to understand who is accountable and responsible for specific tasks and results.
Conversely, 55% of Scale Ups see organisational structure as a critical factor for growth and yet, outside of these high growth organisations, most leadership teams fail to spend any dedicated time assessing what the right option might be for them.
Whether considering a hierarchical or organic design, be it functional or divisional, flat, matrixed or networked in design the right organisational structure should be designed to deliver;
- Increased efficiency.
- Faster and more effective decision-making.
- Improved quality of goods and services.
- Higher profits.
- Better customer relations.
- Safer working conditions.
- A happier, healthier and more motivated workforce.
- Greater preparedness for future challenges.
With the added complexity for businesses of increasing numbers of remote workers and more geographically dispersed workforces, these are very real challenges that today’s most ambitious organisations simply need to address if they are to maximise their growth potential.
