4. Loose Organisational
Design
The suggested academic approach as most effective in using
commitment instead of control as an organising principle is
the Chaordic (the intersection of Chaos and Order where
innovation occurs) with variations such as Org2 Design.
Org2 Design Key Concepts
Commitment as opposed to control as an organising
principle.
Iterative process, not necessary linear and not completed in
a single pass.
Designers consider each facet of the organisation to gain
clarity leading to decisions to coherently deliver the purpose
of the organisation.
Constantly evolving while remaining aligned and integrated.
6. Org2 Design’s Six Facets
Purpose: A clear and simple statement of the worthy pursuit that identifies
and binds the organisation. Purpose leads to commitment.
Principles (& Values): Clear commonly understood and agreed upon
statements of what will guide the behaviour of the participants in the pursuit
of purpose e.g. quality, integrity and innovation.
Practices: Specific agreements on how to operate and co-evolve e.g. location
of power/authority, decision making, accountability, knowledge sharing.
Participants: Members or agents of the organisation. They define who is
involved and how they contribute, are valued and valuable. This involves
defining roles and responsibilities, skills, competencies, learning and
movement in and out of the organisation.
Processes: Define the work, information and feedback flows that produce
value for the customer.
Pieces – Units, networks, relationships and connections to the whole. It
defines the organisational configuration or structure. Coordinated groupings of
participants execute the processes utilising resources (especially information)
to further the purpose/strategy of the organisation.

agreed minimum entry requirements and sign up to the
agreed charter.
