Peoplewiz caters Organization Design Consulting and HR services
Design of an Organization is not an exact science. Our approach is to define design criteria, create guiding principles, propose options and facilitate consensus amongst stakeholders
Organization Design (OD) defines the design and implementation of the organization’s structure, governance, roles, competencies and skills that are required to support strategic, business and transformational goals. Instead of merely addressing the organization structure, PeopleWiz treats it as one element of a comprehensive OD approach that includes alignment between vision, strategy, structure, people, competencies, processes, rewards and culture. Our OD process is a hybrid of both a topdown view that is driven by the business vision and strategy, while focusing on a high-level structure and governance, and a bottom-up view that is driven by day-to-day operational processes and refers to the alignment of operating roles, work units, control and coordination.
PeopleWiz 5D Engagement Approach
Diagnosis: In this first phase, we evaluate the organizational capability to support your strategy for growth. Through stakeholder interviews, workshops and collection of organizational data, a review of your current people management practices including organization structure; decision-making and performance management will be carried out to analyze their effectiveness. Business benefits that can be derived by improving your organizational processes will be plotted and understood.
Design: After gaining an understanding of your long-term strategic objective, short-term business goals, current business context and ground realities, we will define the scope of the changes to organization design, which are needed to transform the organization. This covers organization structure, performance management system, people practices, governance mechanisms and reward mechanisms. To gain a broader perspective while designing your own organization, PeopleWiz consultants will research on successful operating models in your industry and key learning from them.
Develop: A successful implementation requires that the new design has been sufficiently developed to suit every function or unit in the organization. This involves developing tools, content, formats, templates & success measures for the proposed changes that can be smoothly implemented at different layers in the organization.
Deploy: The right blend of planning and execution skills with a formal approach to change management is used during the deploy phase. Engaging key stakeholders, ample internal communication and other change management techniques are utilized during the implementation to ensure that the all the initiatives are a success.
Drive: Measuring success and satisfaction of the employees is carried out so that the initiative remains on track and the promised benefits can be realized. Experienced Change management consultants drive the monitoring and tracking to ensure that the organization design changes are institutionalized.
