Organizational Structure: Design, Planning, and Performance Measurement Tools

• How can you continually inspire people to higher performance?
• How can a business insure that it attracts and retains and the best talent?
• How can you restructure a business to reduce costs rapidly without damaging “brand”, reputation, employee morale, or longer-term value
  creation ability?
