About Course

Organisational Design is the second module of the Certified Orgtologist Program (COP) and a prerequisite for registration as an Orgtologist with the International Orgtology Institute (IOI). It is also a pre-requirement for enrolment to the practical coaching program where an Orgtologist seeks to register as a specialist in the field of Org Design.

 

The module illustrates how an Orgtologist will practically apply the four orgamatics theories to an Org Design project. We here refer to Theory 2I of Orgtelligence, Theory 2P of Work, Theory 2E of Identity, and Theory O of the relevant and performing organisation (RPO). During module one of the COP, student students have studied organisational science. In this module they will apply a large part of the theories taught there. In particular, this module will show how to practically apply and test Hypothesis 2x.

 

The study of Org Design will include process engineering methodology, creating an agile process construct, developing an organisational culture framework that facilitates inclusion, and crafting an organogram that gives structure to human accountability and efficiency. This module therefore deals with developing a blueprint for organisational operations that aims to optimise efficiency.

 

The program is divided into Guides. Each guide will have reading material, self-assessments, and will be covered during an online tutor session. Below are the guides in progressive order…

  1. Organizational design – a future perspective.

  2. What is an organization?

  3. The consciousness of an organization – what are we creating?

  4. What is a process construct?

  5. Using the Level Zero Model to engineer a process construct.

  6. Seven steps to engineering process flow – an orgtology perspective.

  7. The difference between a target, an output, and an outcome.

  8. Creating efficiency through output targets.

  9. What is a project construct?

  10. Integrating the process and project constructs.

  11. Measuring effectiveness.

  12. What is a relationship construct?

  13. Developing an organizational organigram.

  14. The effect of culture on organizational design.

 

Although the Org Design training is mostly theoretical, the assignments will be practical. For actual experience in Org Design, students who complete this training can apply for a practical coaching in Organisational Design with an expert Orgtologist in this field, which will give adequate experience to independently engage with an Org Design project.

GUIDE 2 What is Org?
This learning Unit introduces an understanding of Organisation. In so we probe the construct of Org.

GUIDE 3 The consciousness of an organisation – what are we creating?
This learning Unit introduces an understanding of the consciousness of organisations. We work with the idea that Org has two types of consciousness. (c) Derek Hendrikz: 2019-09-12 Source: Hendrikz, D (2019). ‘The consciousness Org?', *The International Orgtology Institute,* 12 September.

GUIDE 4 What is a process construct?
This learning Unit introduces a process construct. In orgtology, a process construct defines and depicts all the repetitive activity of Org. In so, it is the blueprint for organisational operations.

GUIDE 5 Using the Level Zero model to engineer a process construct
This learning Unit gives guidance on how to use the Orgtology Level Zero Model to engineer a process construct. It explains systems, process families, and the the reverse engineering process to developing a process construct.

GUIDE 6 Seven steps to engineering process flow – an orgtology perspective.
This learning Guide gives a step by step procedure on how to develop process flow. Is shows how process flow begins as a purpose and ends as a metric. (c) Derek Hendrikz: 2018-08-25. Source: Hendrikz, D (2018). ‘Seven steps to engineering process flow – an orgtology perspective.', *The International Orgtology Institute,* 25 August.

GUIDE 7 The difference between a target, an output, and an outcome.
This learning Guide shows how to distinguish targets, outputs, and outcomes from each other. We discuss the impact of each on Org. (c) Derek Hendrikz: 2018-09-01.

GUIDE 8 Create efficiency through output targets.
This learning Guide shows how to identify, define, and quantify outputs. It also argues a case that outputs are the primary metric for performance. (c) Derek Hendrikz: 2018-09-20.

Yea, I really found out that the design of Org is more than the traditional chat or organogram method which is linear and does not show relationship rather, it emphasise only only on relation
