Complete a one-page organizational chart that you believe would best suit your organization’s needs.
In this assessment, you will learn why implementation is sometimes more difficult than strategy formulation. You will also learn how annual objectives, the organizational chart, and organization culture can be used to increase the probability of implementation. A good strategy does not guarantee successful implementation. Although they are interdependent, they are different in nature. Strategy implementation means change. The real work begins after the strategies are created. Implementation requires the support and hard work of employees, and resistance can sabotage implementation. Managers and employees must be motivated to implement strategies. Implementation requires matching structure to strategy, linking performance to pay, creating a change climate, managing political relationships, creating a strategy-supportive culture, adapting key processes, and managing human resources. Establishing objectives and policies, and allocating human resources are also important to implementation.
Altering organization charts is an important skill. This assessment will improve your ability to alter a hierarchical structure to respond to new strategies. Based on your organization, complete a one-page organizational chart that you believe would best suit the organization’s needs. Be sure to take into account the strategy recommendations you have put forth in previous assessments.
An example for changes to the organizational chart might include moving to a division structure by product, or moving to a matrix structure.
Be sure to provide as much detail as possible in your organizational chart, including the names of the individuals and the titles of the positions. Include a two-paragraph description and rationale about why this organization chart will help implement your new strategy recommendations.
