The Talent Map diagnostic helps you determine the organisational structure that best fits how work is designed, decisions are made, and authority is exercised. Unlike simple surveys, this tool evaluates multiple dimensions of organisational design to produce an evidence-based structural profile.
Start Diagnostic NowYour organization is unique. Our scoring engine analyzes your data against the eight primary models of modern business:
Focuses on organizational purpose rather than hierarchy. Leadership is at the center, spreading vision outward, fostering collaboration and equality.
Organized by specialty (e.g., marketing, finance). Clear hierarchy and specialization lead to efficiency but can create silos.
The traditional pyramid structure. Clear chain of command and top-down decision-making provide stability but may slow down innovation.
Employees have dual reporting lines (e.g., to a functional manager and a project manager). Offers flexibility but can lead to complexity and conflict.
Composed of decentralized, autonomous teams. Designed for speed, adaptability, and innovation, moving away from rigid hierarchies.
Structured around products, markets, or regions. Each division operates semi-autonomously, allowing for responsiveness to specific market needs.
Features few or no layers of management. Promotes employee involvement, open communication, and quick decision-making.
Relies on a network of external partners and remote resources. Highly flexible and low overhead, focusing on core competencies.
This assessment is intended for:
Looking to optimize decision-making flow.
Designing or restructuring departments.
Seeking clarity on how the organization actually operates, rather than how it looks on an old org chart.
