Emerging Trends: Designing For Agility and Innovation

One of the most critical issues facing organizations is keeping up with digitization of the workplace. The reality confronting organizations is increasingly complex. Many leaders, who were trained when organizational structure was simpler, are hampered with outdated skills.

Organization design must evolve along with the organizations and its leadership to support adaptive and innovative workplaces.

Let us look at trends in organization structure. Using the class text and, predominately, articles from Trident Library’s full-text databases (like Academic Search Complete, Business Source Complete, and/or ProQuest Central) research organization structure. Do not use any quotations.

· A brief history. Consider modern workplaces before digitization and automation became prevalent. (1 page)

Trends in Organizational Design

Workplace Application: Organizational Design

ORGANIZATION STRUCTURE

Personality, Leadership, and Career Considerations

Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) assesses personality type under the psychodynamic approach. Click on the following link for a  test  that uses the Myers-Briggs as its basis.

Use the attached Self-Appraisal form ( MGT301 SLP3 ) to create your submission.

You are asked to share your “dimensions” scores from the assessment.

· Using what you have learned about yourself through leadership self-assessment and skills analysis, assess your skills based on the scoring for each “dimension.”

· Take an extra step and apply how each “dimension” can guide your management style.

· Critically analyze how your career path and MBTI scores come together. Keep in mind that “marginal or no preference” for a dimension, may place you in a different category which could change results. Consider this in your self-analysis.
