Dual – Triple
Citizenship & Matrix Organizations
PART II
Traditional institutions are crumbling, configurations are shattering
and frameworks are disintegrating. Question is how to initiate and embark in a
synchronization process to harmonise past, present and future complex business
architectures. This is where we left off part I, let’s continue to indulge in
proposals to address issues.
While operating environments are witnessing a paradigm shift to timeless
proximity platforms bearings are being lost in vast virtuality. Therefore
resetting, refocusing business priorities has become crucial. Even though
communications has improved dramatically it did not avoid blurring of
objectives. Sense of timing and responsibility is felt a lot more on the shoulder
of team members compared to when meetings were conducted Face2Face. Otherwise no
matter how careful the session is managed concentration engagement will not
last more than 30 minutes. Reporting outcome and results will reflect this
confusion straight away. So what would be a proper approach?
1-Reset Objectives: Classical characteristic pattern of lengthy descriptive,
direction and target setting should now be abandoned. Further point to consider
is to strip off the time stamp from course heading. Remember those yearly,
quarterly ambitions and dreams.
Imminent replacement of the old process with current simple, short
principles is now mandatory. Redesign each and every one of the tangible
actions which are achievable one by one at on line gatherings. Bulk v Pieces.
Reinvent together involve the team to define pieces. Thus converting on line
boring duration to a desired not to be missed encounter with a happy bunch of
participants. Regularity will guarantee acceptance and give the green light to
productivity. Like constituting agility
as a de facto online process.
2-Dual Citizenship: Individualism will work as discussed above, on
the other hand business processes are depended in a crisscross manner to
multiple units. Let’s have an example; sales in a retail shop is directly
linked to a department in production line. Therefore let’s imagine a sales
person having an online weekly target also owns a weekly production completeness
cycle. Dual responsibility, citizenship both at equal weights will engage the
separate teams to own the same destiny. Duality may sound complicated however
practice makes perfect.
Several varieties of multiple connections can be established which are
in tune with greater corporate purpose. Connections are there to be short lived
not to be permanent thus providing professionals to taste different expressions.
Also an added benefit to the corporation would be a have an available pool of
human resources that is reachable in cases of quick shifts in corporate
direction.
3-Rewarding: Well here is a challenge for CHRO, online
objective setting is here to stay even after the Pandemic. To build an
excellent system to cater for and be fair, all aspects of business needs, have to
be studied and fully integrated. Slices or frames of responsibly attached with
a unique rewarding system… Once branded properly will be accepted by the team
and thus will ensure to drive business fast forward. Internal selling and
positioning is critical. Understanding by all is key for implementing this
agile virtual system. Start slow, little experiments first before full blown
wide coverage should be considered seriously.
These tools propose faster better business results, thus empowering
corporations to bounce to a higher level of sustainable business architecture.
Elimination of dazzle is possible only if complete structure operates at
synchronism.
Best of luck; watch storks gathering for their next migration there you
will witness patterns, communications, planning, purpose, passion.
