There's a lot of organizational flux in most companies, according to McKinsey's research. Less than a quarter of organizational redesign efforts succeed, according to McKinsey. Redesigns that work pay off in more motivated employees and more decisiveness.

In order to implement strategy, an organization needs to integrate structure, processes, and people. A successful redesign will focus the company's resources on its strategic priorities and reduce costs. An example of a typical motivation for a redesign is a company that decided to expand outside of its US home base.
