We (Lemon Consulting) invite to a learning event in our “Innovation in Organization Development and Leadership Series”: Charles C. Snow: “Designing Organizations for Collaborative Innovation”, Jan 19-20, 2015, Vienna. Charles Snow is Professor for Management at Penn State University and Co-Founder of the Journal of Organization Design.

The workshop will focus on bridging the gap between the theory and practice of organization design. We will start with an introduction into current perspectives on organization design and their relation to organization development and management theory. Special emphasis then will be given to new forms of organizing that are increasingly being used to organize for collaborative innovation. Such designs take advantage of community values and processes, and they present the special challenge of creating organizational forms that extend beyond the single company and do not rely on hierarchical mechanisms for control and coordination. Guided by inputs from theory and research, the workshop will include discussions and reflections among the participants.
