The McKinsey 7S model Seven steps to success

摘要

When looking to manage and improve a company, this popular model is intended to highlight how changing just one area is likely to be problematic. A company is a complex set of interrelated systems that interact. When you want to change the company you may well need to change multiple factors, including hard and soft factors, The McKinsey 7S model gained particular fame through Tom Peters' book In Search of Excellence..Strategy includes the overall intent and approach of the organisation that influences all other decisions. The process of strategising can be very different for every organisation, including a top-down vision deployment, a corporate strategic department and a highly devolved choice system. The problem with most strategy is that by the time it reaches the front line, it has mutated so much that the sum of the actions will not achieve the original intent.
