McKinsey 7S Framework

A holistic approach to harmonizing all parts of the organization

 

Description

The McKinsey 7S Framework is a powerful tool for evaluating organizational alignment and effectiveness. Developed by Tom Peters and Robert Waterman of McKinsey & Company, this framework identifies seven key elements - Shared Vision, Strategy, Structure, Systems, Style, Staff, and Skills - that are crucial for organizational success.

This presentation provides a comprehensive understanding of the 7S framework and its application in organizational analysis and design. It explores the interrelated elements of the framework and offers insights into how to use it to improve efficiency and profitability.

One of the unique features of this presentation is its focus on the 7S vectors of contention, which help identify areas of conflict or tension within an organization. By addressing these tensions, leaders can create a more effective organizational design that is aligned with the organization's goals and values.

Real-world examples of the framework's application, including case studies from Apple, General Electric (GE), Starbucks, and Nike, are included to illustrate its practical relevance and effectiveness.

Whether you're a consultant, executive, or business leader, this presentation will equip you with the knowledge and tools you need to drive organizational change and achieve sustainable success.
