McKinsey 7-S Model

The McKinsey 7-S Model is a framework used to analyze and align seven key elements of an organization to improve performance. These elements are Structure (organization chart), Strategy (plan to achieve goals), Systems (daily processes), Shared Values (core beliefs), Skills (competencies), Style (leadership approach), and Staff (people). By examining how these parts work together, leaders can identify areas needing change and ensure all components support the organization’s objectives effectively. It’s a holistic way to understand and strengthen organizational health and alignment.
