Organizational Cube

Organizations don't have one lever. The Cube lays out every interconnected component of design, so you can see how moving one side moves the others.

Aim

AlignOrg's Organizational Cube provides a systematic approach to organizational design. Each side of the cube represents a critical and interconnected component of the design process, all of which must be aligned in order for an organization to function optimally.

Results

An understanding of the components that will enable you to leverage and align your organization's processes and tools.

Pro Tips

Just like a Rubik's Cube, there is a systematic approach to designing in any organization. A couple of quick tips:

  1. Strategy is at the center of every side of the cube because it underpins the entire design process.
  2. Avoid "boxology" — siloing and putting parts of the design process in their own box. This doesn't adequately reflect how interconnected all these pieces are.
