structured and run.

formations, shift patterns, lines of reporting, decision-making procedures,
communication channels, and more.
2. Descriptive part:
(Start this section by Defining the process and giving proper

this way- say for example

However in the context, of Bangladesh, Organization Design – and redesign – can


help any type of organization to achieve its goals. Sometimes, a large-scale
reorganization is necessary. At other points, more subtle shifts in structures and
systems can ensure that an organization continues to thrive.

The Impact of Organization Design: (highlight headings and key words)

An organization's design must be right for it to operate efficiently and effectively,


and its structures and systems need to be aligned with its core strategies.

There are many potential benefits to having a design that suits the business and its
people, and the environment in which it operates. For example:
(This is an example of writing)…..
(10 straight bullet points with example) in part 2 (Descriptive portion main
content of answer)

 Increased efficiency.

 Faster and more effective decision making.

 Improved quality of goods and services. Higher profits.

 Better customer relations. Safer working conditions.

 A happier, healthier and more motivated workforce.

 Greater preparedness for future challenges.

However, if there are flaws in its design, an organization can suffer serious
problems, including:

 Ineffective problem solving.

 Wasted time.

 Lack of coordination between different parts of the business. Inconsistent


quality of work. Failures of legal compliance.

 Reputational damage.

 Low morale, leading to high staff turnover.

 Below-target business-level results.

Even if a particular setup was successful in the past, that doesn't mean it will
remain so for ever – or even for long. As businesses develop, and as the world
around them changes, it's vital that they keep a close eye on the way they're
organized. (Add Further detailing if needed)

And when it's no longer fit to the purpose that's the appropriate time to put a
new phase of Organization Design into action

Part-3 (Writing Conclusion)
(Wrapping up your answers) with some key points like this.

ADD A PROPER CONCLUSION TO YOUR ANSWER)

This is For example- again use Transitions to conclude- from below page

CONCLUSION:

Adding in summary, on the whole, that is, therefore, to sum up, at last we
can say----

That,
The new design will have implications for every area of the business. Ensure
that you take into account the impact on customers and suppliers. Check that
your IT resources and communication processes are fit for purpose. And
think what it will mean when you're next recruiting and on boarding new
hires.

Key Points to conclude answers this way (DEMO):

Organization Design is a process for shaping the way your organization operates,
to help you to pursue your strategies and meet your goals. It involves setting up
structures and systems, as well as helping people to adapt to new ways of working.

The three key triggers for Organization Design are: when new challenges arise,
when different strategies are set, and when old systems are no longer fit for
purpose.

Organization Design comprises two main approaches: hierarchical and organic.


Analyze carefully any potential new design, to ensure that it matches your
priorities, suits the environment you operate in, and meets your people's needs.

Whenever you implement new ways of working, be alert to any unintended


consequences, and help everyone involved to cope throughout the process of
change
