The course is delivered over a 6 week period.

Planning of your time will be critical to immerse in the readings, activities, and discussions which provide the breadth and depth of knowledge to support your learning and completion of your assessments.

Over six weeks, you will journey through the world of organisational structure, and the development of an organisation’s operating framework, to align with the strategic objectives. You will also consider human motivation and its role in providing a sound base for workplace engagement, performance, and speed to change.

In the first week, you will learn about the role of an organisation’s resources, capability, and decision structure in achieving its objectives. This includes the introduction to the design of an organisational structure through a video animation.

In Week 2, you will look at the importance of talent sourcing, selection, and retention to build diversity of thought, skill, experience, and decision-making across all practices and processes of the organisation.

In Week 3, you will learn about alignment across the organisation on the business objectives and role clarity for each function and individual on their role in achieving the objectives. This will include the difference between individual and shared objectives, and how they link back to the company-wide objectives.

In Week 4, you will look at Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), and how they are developed in collaboration with relevant stakeholders to guide and measure performance against organisational objectives. 

As you move towards the end of the course in week 5, you will link leadership capability, behaviours, and practices effective in building working environments, which align with human motivation.  

In the final week, you will consider the learning from the course in relation to change readiness and preparing an organisation for change, with a focus on planning, communication, and leadership capability.
