ORGANISATION DESIGN AND ORGANISATION DEVELOPMENT
Reflecting on your own organisation or one with which you are familiar, identify and critically discuss a ‘problem’ faced in relation to its structure, processes or systems. Include relevant organisation design and development theory to support your observations (the use of the term ‘problem’ relates to the definition of this term within the context of Action Learning).
Students will be required to:
• Demonstrate a critical awareness of organisational design options regarding organisational structures, relationships, processes and systems and their context in terms of their contribution to organisational life.
• Analyse the identified ‘problem’ taking full account of the organisation’s business environment and organisational context.
• Ensure that the application of relevant theory and academic models provide an effective blend of theory and practice.
• Ensure approved academic referencing is adopted.
