Join an ODF Community Conversation
January 23 | 11AM – 12:30PM (EST)
Establishing an Internal
Org Design & Effectiveness Capability
Michele DiMartino and Dan Lamp will draw on their experiences working inside corporations and consulting to global Human Resource Functions to bring you time-tested and pragmatic approaches for developing a fit-for-purpose Organization Design & Effectiveness (OD/E) center of expertise (COE). They will explore common pitfalls when establishing this new capability inside a company and best practices for avoiding them – sharing OD/E COE design decision making frameworks, design examples, and templates throughout the webinar that you can then use them to develop and 
successfully activate your own (or a client’s) internal OD/E practice. Key focus areas include evaluating the right design form within the context of the corporate operating model, selecting the optimal structure, architecting a high-impact OD/E COE brand, and engaging executive stakeholders to establish a sustainable OD/E capability that will meaningfully support short- and long-term business success.
