We are pleased to be offering a new one day workshop on Organisational Design Principles.  This one day workshop in Sydney and Melbourne provides essentail no nonsense need to know information for designing effective organisational structures.  It is based on proven principles that have been used globally and evolved over more then half a century.  We will be using two case studies, one jointly designed on a real life acquisition and merger of two engineering companies in the Americas and the other a financial services case study from Australia.

Spans of Control vs.  Mutual Recognition Unit (MRU) and Mutual Knowledge Teams (MKT); Matrix Structures
Roles: Defining Roles - Reporting distance; Role Types (line & support); Authority & Accountability, Project Management

Case Study 1 - From the Institute of Technology in Buenos Aires - an exercise in designing a new company structure from a merger and acquisition...
Case Study 2 - Financial Services Industry - Australia.  Investigating the failure of a multi-million dollar project...

Every managerial leader, not matter at what level of the organisation, is required to be proficient in a number of specific managerial competencies.  To be a well run effective company, we need to be good at doing these specific competencies.  To be a high performance team we need not only to be good, we need to be GREAT at doing them.  There is no pixie dust to this – every managerial leader with coaching and learning can become a very effective managerial leader.

One of these competencies is the ability to understand the principles of structural design.  

Price; $750 per delegate (GST incl), includes a light lunch. Delegates will receive manual and a copy of relevant notes and extracts.

 
Where: Sydney 5th May 2011 - 09:00 - 16:30 & Melbourne 12th May - 09:00 - 16:30

Please email Booking Org Design Workshop May 2011 to reserve your booking or for further information.

This workshop is based on the work of Dr Elliott Jaques, Gillian Stamp and others.... 

I am pleased to present this workshop as it is becoming apparent that this important facet of senior management competency  is often overlooked and certainly not taught on management development programmes. You will leave this workshop with a set of principles and tools you can put to immediate use!!
