Organizational Design:Organizational Design may define in different ways;

More specifically, Organization Design is a formal, guided process for integrating the people, information and technology of an organization. It is used to match the form of the organization as closely as possible to the purpose(s) the organization seeks to achieve.

"Organization design" can be defined narrowly, as the process of reshaping organization structure and roles, or it can more effectively be defined as the alignment of structure, process, rewards, metrics and talent with the strategy of the business.

The design of an organization is much more than the boxes on an organization chart and the lines that connect them.  It's the systems, structures, and processes by which work gets done, and it has immense potential to influence organizational behavior and drive results.
