by Maurice Dutrisac, Herb Kopolowitz, and Kenneth O. Shepard

Precis - English

In this article, the authors show how CEOs can apply the concepts of Requisite Organization theory to construct strategies and managerial systems that will be more efficient, profitable, effective and healthy to all.

Requisite organization (RO) is one of the very few management systems - and certainly the most researched and validated - that links all aspects of a business to ensure:

The right organizational structure
The right people
The right accountabilities
The right leadership practices

Implementation of RO has led to:

Increased profits of 30 to 200 percent, including 20 percent to 40 percent growth, cost reduction, and increased productivity and market share
Improved customer relations
Greater employee satisfaction and retention

Requisite organization does this by ensuring:

The optimal number of layers in the structure and well understood cross-functional relationships
Clear roles, accountabilities, and authorities
Leadership roles and practices that help managers become effective leaders and employees to use their full capabilities
Fair performance management and compensation systems
Assessment methods and a talent pool system that identify the best people for hiring and promotion, and support effective career development and succession planning

Nesse artigo, os autores mostram como o executivo pode aplicar os conceitos da teoria da Organização Natural para construir sistemas gerenciais e estratégias que são mais eficientes, lucrativos, efetivos e saudáveis para todos.

A Organização Natural (ON) é um de poucos sistemas de gerenciamento e certamente o sistema de gerenciamento mais pesquisado e validado que liga todos os aspectos de um negócio de modo a obter:

A estrutura organizacional certa.
As pessoas certas.
As responsabilidades certas.
As práticas de liderança certas.

A implementação da ON tem levado a:

Aumento do lucro de 30 a 200%, incluindo 20 a 40% de crescimento, redução de custos e aumento da produtividade e fatia de mercado.
Melhoria das relações com o cliente.
Maior satisfação dos empregados e conseqüente retenção dos mesmos.

A Organização Natural chega a isso garantindo:

Um número adequado (ótimo) de camadas na estrutura e relações funcionais recíprocas bem definidas.
Clareza nas funções, responsabilidades e autoridades.
Papéis e práticas de liderança que ajudam os gerentes a se tornarem líderes efetivos e ajudam os empregados a usar plenamente suas capacidades.
Sistemas de compensação e avaliação de performance justos.
Métodos de avaliação e um sistema de reserva de talentos que identifica as melhores pessoas para contratação e promoção, e apóia o desenvolvimento efetivo de carreira e um planejamento sucessório.
