The Structure of a Resilient Organization - OR3020 Course Description: The Structure of a Resilient Organization is the second course in the Essentials of Organizational Resilience Series. “Decentralization has been lying dormant for thousands of years. But the advent of the Internet has unleashed this force, knocking down traditional businesses, altering entire industries, affecting how we relate to each other, and influencing world politics. The absence of structure, leadership, and formal organization, once considered a weakness, has become a major asset. Seemingly chaotic groups have challenged and defeated established institutions. The rules of the game have changed.” (The Starfish and the Spider, page 6) The Structure of a Resilient Organization takes a close look at how the structure of an organization can be its greatest asset or its greatest weakness – evaluating your organization and how to make it more resilient. The key reference for this course is The Starfish and the Spider written by Ori Brafman and Rod Beckstrom.
