Praise for Designing Your Organization
"Jay Galbraith and Amy Kates provide the compass, charts, essential tools, and supplies for the journey to organization effectiveness in dynamic times. Designing Your Organization, brought forth at a time of major challenges to global business and national priorities, brings contemporary organization decisions into focus and provides clear advice to achieve business performance today and tomorrow."
-John D. Hofmeister, president and U.S. country chair, Shell Oil Company
"Should be used by every leader seeking to give their organization a competitive advantage. Galbraith and Kates offer a practical framework to align a corporation's organizational structure with its business strategy."
-Thomas J. Falk, chairman and CEO, Kimberly-Clark Corporation
"Starting several decades ago, Jay Galbraith wrote a series of books that essentially defined the field of modern organization design. Now, with deceptive simplicity, compelling logic, and immense practicality, he and Amy Kates have summarized in a single place what every manager needs to know about this vitally important subject."
-Thomas W. Malone, Patrick J. McGovern Professor of Management; director, MIT Center for Collective Intelligence, MIT Sloan School of Management; and author, The Future of Work
