Before you start any reorganization in your company, you have to know all the organizational issues that your company has and address these issues. It is the only way by which you will make any effective change in your company.
Every company has their own organization issues and these issues are unique. So the solutions are can be modified depending on the company's needs and wants. Usually, practitioners observe the company close hand and then they draw traditional and current theories which are applicable to the issues at hand. These theories can be applied to the company's social structure which is based on the tasks, specialization, hierarchy, power and endurance of the current organization of the company.
Usually, the organizational issues evolve around these factors: size, span of control, technology, tasks, environment, business strategy that is employed by the company and so many others. To be honest, there are so many issues that surround each company that it is crucial to identify which ones affect the company and the people who work on it the most.
Those who handle these organizational issues are experts on assessment, organizational structure, operations, transitions and change. It comes with years of practice and studying. They know that they do not go straight to technology. They address the issues first. Before they can address the issues, they need to identify them first. Hiring people who can do this are worth it. They will bring about the right kind of change and they will help bring back the company to the right path.
