THINK TANK: Optimizing Org Structure and Span of Control

Written by Connex Staff | Oct 2, 2025 4:13:41 PM

Organizational design and leadership capacity are being tested as never before. Leaders face the dual challenge of simplifying structures for efficiency while building agility to handle constant disruption. Finding the right spans of control, decision rights, and reporting lines is not just an HR exercise, it’s a leadership imperative that directly shapes speed, accountability, and engagement.

This Session Will Examine

  • Why structure—not just strategy—sets the ceiling on agility and decision velocity.

  • The hidden costs of overloaded managers in an era of AI copilots and automation.

  • How structural clarity accelerates collaboration instead of adding bureaucracy.

  • Using data/AI signals (workload, flow, cycle time) to inform design choices.

  • Preparing for structures that flex around projects, products, and platforms.
