7. FAILURES IN ORGANIZATION DESIGN
Inadequate Support from Leadership:
Organizational Design does not succeed without leadership support. And lip service is not enough. Leaders must champion and model the
change for the rest of the organization,in both what they say and do. They must be active, consistently supporting the change teams as they design and
implement changes.
Failure at the top :
upper management isn’t making educated decisions, or members of upper management are simply making very bad decisions despite the
resources they have available.
Lack of Resources:
Lack of resources is one of the most common reason of failure. Adoption and sustainment of change are long term investments
