<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Five practical steps to enhance organization effectiveness on a global scale</b> <p><i>Bridging Organization Design and Performance</i> is a handbook for leaders looking to enhance the success of their organizations and themselves. Companies that compete globally require organizational operating models as robust as their strategies. Many companies have created elegant designs and consider their worldwide, matrix organizations sources of competitive advantage. However, the reality is that these complex structures bring many challenges and senior executives are often frustrated by the difficulties of delivering growth in organizations that span numerous brands, products, and geographic regions. <p>After working closely with over twenty large US and Europe based global companies during the past decade, Gregory Kesler and Amy Kates concluded that the problem is not in the fundamental design of these operating models. The matrix is not going away. The challenge is to effectively and completely activate the organization to deliver the strategy. This book shares the five practical actions that bring complex organizations to life and help companies gain sustainable results from their global operating models.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p>Companies that compete in the global marketplace must balance the need for both global and local perspectives in decision-making, but the complexity of managing global operating models is a difficult challenge in the search for new sources of growth. <i>Bridging Organization Design and Performance</i> is a practical handbook for business leaders who want to enhance the success of their organizations and ensure their company's competitive advantage. In this important resource, authors Greg Kesler and Amy Kates build on the work of the late Jay Galbraith to present the concept of activation. Activation is the deliberate and adaptive creation of new work, decisions, and business outcomes gained through the repetition and refinement of management processes and interactions over time. Leaders that embrace activation find that they have created the blueprint for building the bridge from organization design to successful business performance. <p><i>Bridging Organization Design and Performance</i> reveals the five practical actions that bring complex organizations to life and help companies gain sustainable results from their global operating models. The authors show how the five activators--unique value-adding layers, innovation and execution networks, the business handshake, governance and decision-making, and matrix-ready leaders--lead to three essential outcomes: the right connections, the right conversations, and the right know-how. <p>Written as a hands-on resource, <i>Bridging Organization Design and Performance</i> includes the strategies, frameworks, best practices, and tools needed to achieve organizational success.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>GREGORY KESLER</b> and <b>AMY KATES</b> are Managing Partners at Kates Kesler, one of the world's leading organization design firms.
