the "7S Framework"
The 7S Framework is a tool used by organizations to analyze and improve their effectiveness. It identifies seven interconnected elements: Strategy (the plan to achieve goals), Structure (organization hierarchy), Systems (processes and workflows), Shared Values (core beliefs and culture), Skills (competencies of employees), Style (leadership approach), and Staff (people involved). By examining how these elements align and support each other, organizations can identify areas for change, ensure all parts work cohesively, and enhance overall performance. It’s a way to understand and manage organizational dynamics holistically.
