This
is a key issue. In a nut-shell and based on a couple of decades of work in this
area, I would suggest that the traditional organizational design (as
reflected in conventional organizational charts) prevents the kind of
flexibility that you are describing, and the first thing an organization must do
if it wants strategic flexibility is to adopt an effective organizational
design. The second requirement is the introduction of team-based functions
within the organization. The third requirement is ad hoc leadership, and the
fourth, in my experience, is truly supportive and flexible administrative
systems, whether they are automated or manual.
