Book excerpt: This practical book contains 10 interventions a facilitator can use to help a team to develop a strategy at divisional, business unit or functional level. These interventions can be used in both online and physical meetings. The interventions will help a team to: Reflect on the journey their division has taken to date and the strengths that the team can use on the next phase of their journey. Uncover the paradigms that drive what currently happens in their division. Then develop new paradigms that open up new possibilities and opportunities for the division. Develop a vision of the future organization within which the division will operate. Analyse what stakeholders expect from the division. Use trends to identify new opportunities for the division. Develop a scenario of the future environment within which the division will operate. Use their division's strengths to identify new opportunities. Develop a new identity for their division. Develop an extended vision for their division that shows what they will need to have in place to delight their future stakeholders. Identify the first steps to implement the divisional vision. As a leader of a division, business unit or function, you will need to develop a divisional strategy whenever: Your organization or group develops a new strategy which will now place additional demands on the area you control. You need to 'align' the strategy of your division, unit or function to the organization's strategy. You need to present a powerful strategy to your executive team or board of directors in order to get the budget your division needs. You have a number of departments reporting to you - each headed by a good leader. But the different departments are not supporting one another in the way they should. Customers of your division complain that it is difficult to get a problem solved that cuts across the different departments in your division. Your team complains that they are stressed. There are too many projects and initiatives. Priorities are unclear. In this book, we give you 10 tried and tested 'recipes' to help facilitate a strategy workshop at a divisional level. Like any good recipe we provide all the information you may need to successfully facilitate each intervention. This includes: The goal of the intervention. Who the intervention is for. The time required. The materials you will need. Instructions for a practical group activity. Instructions for getting feedback after the group activity. An explanation of why this intervention works. In this book, Ruth Tearle shares the practical interventions she has used successfully as a sought-after strategic planning consultant. These interventions are powerful because they help teams to develop a strategy that provides focus for the division, aligns to the corporate strategy, and delights the stakeholders of the division. If you are a leader of a division or business unit, a strategist, an Organizational Development facilitator, or a Human Resources business partner, then this is a book to keep in your professional toolkit.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Organizations can accelerate the pace of quality improvements by ensuring that Total Quality efforts are driven from organizational strategy. In the process of doing this, a success paradigm can be created that allows different units of an organization to work more effectively toward a shared purpose. The significant examples presented here are the result of almost a decade of direct research and application in a very diverse set of organizations, including Fortune 500 manufacturing and services firms, non-profit organizations, health care organizations, and public education. The result is a specific process with enough detail for professional managers to read the book and implement the process in their own organizations. CEOs and NPO professionals, as well as business academics and upper level students, should find significant examples in an array of industries and situations that make this reading especially worthwhile. The approach described in this book centers around Critical Success Factors which Rockart introduced in 1979. It is a learning-oriented approach to planning that the authors have implemented in a variety of settings, including Boeing, Air Midwest, and Conway Hospital. The important relationship between management control and strategic planning styles is discussed in several interesting chapters. Another topic that the authors address is the reinventing of government and the feasibility of applying the process in that environment. . Several examples of governments who attempted the task are offered along with discussion of their level of success. The approach described in this book is a powerful tool that can be used to develop a common vision in any organization.

This book was released on 2003-03-26 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Books and articles come and go, endlessly. But a few do stick, and this book is such a one. Organizational Strategy, Structure, and Process broke fresh ground in the understanding of strategy at a time when thinking about strategy was still in its early days, and it has not been displaced since." —David J. Hickson, Emeritus Professor of International Management & Organization, University of Bradford School of Management Originally published in 1978, Organizational Strategy, Structure, and Process became an instant classic, as it bridged the formerly separate fields of strategic management and organizational behavior. In this Stanford Business Classics reissue, noted strategy scholar Donald Hambrick provides a new introduction that describes the book's contribution to the field of organization studies. Miles and Snow also contribute new introductory material to update the book's central concepts and themes. Organizational Strategy, Structure, and Process focuses on how organizations adapt to their environments. The book introduced a theoretical framework composed of a dynamic adaptive cycle and an empirically based strategy typology showing four different types of adaptation. This framework helped to define subsequent research by other scholars on important topics such as configurational analysis, organizational fit, strategic human resource management, and multi-firm network organizations.
