Introduction

Introduction
In contemporary organisational environments characterised by rapid transformation and growing complexity, organisational design has evolved into a strategic discipline that directly influences institutional agility, governance efficiency, and long-term performance. Ineffective structures can hinder decision-making flows, weaken operational coordination, and limit an organisation’s ability to respond to emerging economic and technological challenges.
This course explores the strategic integration between organisational design and workforce planning. Participants will examine modern organisational structure models, analyse structural elements influencing institutional performance, and link these concepts to systematic workforce forecasting methodologies. The programme also develops professional competencies in job analysis, job evaluation, job description development, and compensation design, enabling organisations to align human capital capabilities with strategic objectives.
