The journey from strategy to operating success depends on creating an organization that can deliver the chosen strategy. This book, explaining the Operating Model Canvas, shows you how to do this. It teaches you how to define the main work processes, choose an organization structure, develop a high-level blueprint of the IT systems, decide where to locate and how to lay out floor plans, set up relationships with suppliers and design a management system and scorecard with which to run the new organization. The Operating Model Canvas helps you to create a target operating model aligned to your strategy.
In this webcast, I will..
-Explain who I am and how I came to write a book on operating models
-Define the term operating model and explain the difference between high-level models and detailed models
-Explain the main contribution that I think the book makes
-Discuss what sort of manager will get the most benefit from the book
-Make a connection between operating models and business processes
The book contains more than 20 examples ranging from large multi-nationals to government departments to small charities and from an operating model for a business to an operating model for a department of five people. The book describes more than 15 tools, including new tools such as the value chain map, the organization model and the high-level IT blueprint. Most importantly, the book contains two fully worked examples showing how the tools can be used to develop a new operating model.
This book should be on the desk of every consultant, every strategist, every leader of transformation, every functional business partner, every business or enterprise architect, every Lean expert or business improvement champion, in fact everyone who wants to help their organization be successful.

Dear Friends,
I have 2 questions:
1/ If the HR department has many tasks, does an operating model canvas represent all of the tasks, or does an operating model canvas cover only one task?
2/ What are the duties of support departments (eg: HR, IT) on the corporate canvas operating model?.
Thank you.

I have one question
Can the operating model be used as a basis to design an organization structure? in other words should I design the operating model and organization design at the same time? or should I first identify and design the Operating model first to be able to design the organization structure?
