The aim of this course is to acquire the necessary knowledge and practical skills that will enable students to define the interdependence of the elements of organizational structure and processes so that in a given or anticipated situation organizationaly shaped organizational system (enterprise or its parts) achieves the persued objectives and goals.

Through this course students acquire knowledge and skills in the fields of acquisition of theoretical and practical knowledge in the field of intentional and controlled development and changes in the organization to improve efficiency and effectiveness, and working conditions in the organization, alignment of organizational and technical / technological factors and changing of organizational culture and climate and setting the optimal model organization with respect to the objectives and available resources.By the end of the Organisation Design course student will be able to: -tackle an organisation design project -sequence and approach the design effectively -apply various tools and techniques to make good organisation -design decisions -control the consequences and risks of design changes -recognize design project blockers and challenges and -address design project blockers and challenges.
