Strategy 5.0™ – Defining the Appropriate Organization Design for a Digital Future

I just published an article on LinkedIn on the Appropriate Design for a Digital Future.  You can read it here.  For those of you who want a Schaum’s outline version, here we go.

Today’s functional organization structure is no longer appropriate for serving the digital future.  Business processes are horizontal, not vertical.  So, as part of Group50’s approach to Strategy 5.0™, we are proposing that companies be organized in the following 3 process groups,

 and they should have three primary leaders:

1. Chief Revenue Officer
2. Chief Value Add Officer
3. Chief Technology Officer

I think we can agree that each process group will require every functional expertise including HR and finance because of their uniqueness. The article makes the following points:

1. Organizations should be built to master the company’s technology and be structured that way.
2. 76% of the companies don’t have a digital transformation plan and the ones that do have mostly failed at implementation.
3. Change management has been the primary cause which is why we created the Business Hierarchy of Needs®.
4. We have created a Strategic Planning process designed to prepare companies for their appropriate digital future.
