Applying organizational design principles to achieve strategic alignment and high performance - as well as a peek at emerging and future design options to achieve “innovation” as a strategic advantage

This session will focus on how to use organization design principles to manage and align the thousands of possible organizational choices required to achieve stakeholder results. It will also illustrate how today competitive or highly productive organizations require at least two if not three parallel organizational structures/cultures (as well as a discussion the practical implications of that), and finally the session will include a review what the next wave of emerging organizational networks that are likely posed to replace our organization-centric approaches to optimizing innovation. For the past 6 years, whether collaborating with Booz Allen Hamilton on the creation of the State Education Office, working with a local District consultant like Paradyme Inc to apply CMM tools to reengineer and standardize the Department of Consumer and Regulatory Affairs core business processes, or simply working with the Strategic Design Team of the new District Department of Environment, Bill has done the exciting and challenging work of creating the readiness and alignment so organizations to take advantage of technology. Bill will share insights and perspectives from his 25 years of experience in local, state, and the federal governments.
