The Digital Enterprise Wave
Why organisational change?
• The evidence is mounting – to make digital truly work change is necessary
• The key is change of Mind-set and Culture
• I worry about some current thinking on organisational structure….
• We need “Evolution not Revolution!”
• Fairness to each other and everyone with whom we come in
contact
• Freedom to encourage, help, and allow other associates to grow
in knowledge, skill, and scope of responsibility
• The ability to make one's own commitments and keep them
• Consultation with other associates before undertaking actions that
could impact the reputation of the company
A Team-Based, Flat Lattice Organization
checks and balances to ensure accountability, transparency and honesty
taking responsibility individually and collectively
rather than relying on traditional hierarchical status
Hierarchy - Wirearchy

Organisational Change
• It’s not about changing the org chart – many structures will work
• It is about mind-set and values:
– accountability, transparency and honesty
– checks and balances
– fairness
– freedom to encourage, help, collaborate
– taking responsibility individually and collectively
– empowering employees

• 4-6 week new product cycles
• Touch the customer within weeks – used to be 2 years
Systems
