Hire an organisation design consultant in Greece and Cyprus

Who decides what, who does the work, and how the pieces fit: an operating model designed for the company you are becoming, not the one on the old chart.

In many Greek and Cypriot companies the organisation chart is the family tree, or the chart from when the company was a third of its size. An organisation design consultant redesigns roles, decision rights and the governance rhythm for the company as it now is. The signs it is time:

  • Every decision still passes through the owner
  • Two people hold the same job, and nobody holds another
  • An acquisition doubled the functions, from finance teams to sales managers
  • A family member in a role the business has outgrown

The organisation design consultants on Hellenic Talent are elite professionals from the organisation practices of top consultancies and Big 4 firms, former HR directors and PE operating partners. They design for adoption: a structure the owner will implement beats an elegant one that stays on the slide.

What does an organisation design consultant actually do?

  • Map how decisions really flow today: who decides, who is consulted and where things stall
  • Design two or three structures with their trade-offs stated
  • Write decision rights clearly enough that people can be held to them
  • Set the governance rhythm: which meetings decide what, how often and with what papers
  • Size spans and layers to what the business can afford and the talent can carry
  • Plan the transition with the owner, including the conversations about family members and long-serving managers

How to choose the right organisation design consultant

What to test in the first conversation, whoever you end up hiring.

  1. Starts from the decisions

    Asks which decisions the company gets wrong or makes slowly before drawing a single box or line.

  2. Saw a design go live

    Has watched one of their structures run for a year, and can name what they would draw differently.

  3. Sets spans and layers

    Can explain how they set spans of control and the number of layers in a past design, and what changed as a result.
