Summary In an era in which leadership and change management models, tools and development schemes based on soft skills constitute the mainstream thought, it has become ever more necessary to develop a scientific and rigorous approach to the life of an organization that can overcome the challenges of different cultural approaches and socio-environmental limitations. In this ground-breaking new book, the author puts forward a universal model for designing an organization. The model is based upon first principles, theoretical properties as well as upon empirical approaches to organizational development so as to form a new model under the name of "Organizational Structuralism". By deploying this new model, organizations will be able to design a new organization from its foundations, improve and change fundamental organizational structures, define and fine-tune key performance indicators and enhance its competitive advantages. Ultimately, "Organizational Structuralism" will allow Scholars, Researchers and University Academics as well as Practitioners, Managers and Executives to be in possession of a comprehensive model that is able to respond effectively and efficiently to every disruptive or non-continuous evolutionary change caused either by the digital transformation or by the geopolitical, environmental and cultural challenges of organizations. The structural properties of an organization are developed and analysed at various organizational levels: from the organizational microstructures, defined as Organizational Quanta up to a general perspective of Organizational structuring based on a completely new Organizational Field Theory. Hence, a comprehensive approach based on a multidisciplinary analysis of organizational life and of its main evolutionary dynamics constitutes the main driver of this book. Kostas Langas has worked as Senior Consultant for many multinational corporations and for Public Institutions. He was the CEO of important companies specialized in organizational reengineering, process improvement, assessment systems of all organizational variables including HR competency and performance development systems. He has taught in various European and American Universities.
