INTRODUCTIONOrganizational effectiveness and
efficiency is founded on the institution’s shared vision;clear strategy; and,a well-defined structure.

Shared VisionStrategyStructureSystemsSkillsStaffingStyle
Organizational structure changes in response to changes in the shared vision and strategy as well as changes in the operating environment.
This is what it means to be flexible and adaptable.
Oftentimes, managers focus on the their behavior or their staff’s behavior.
At other times, managers look at their staff’s skill sets.
Sometimes, they assume that a vision and clear strategy will take them through.

But often what is ignored is how an organization’s structure and systems affect implementing activities.
Without subsequent modification, people revert to their old habits, become frustrated, or find themselves facing inflexible policies and procedures.

CASE STUDIES Cases show how three organizations adapt to
changes in the marketplace, increase in clients, increase in geographic scope, and greater regulation.
This also attempts to visualize next evolution of microfinance organizational structure.

Others would shrug it off. “I don’t believe we’ll reach that size.” (Lack of Vision.)
Others would say, “That’s great! That’s what I want. Now how will I go about it?” (Lack of Strategy.)
Then some would mutter, “I know that will happen, we’ll just do the same things we’ve been doing.” (Lack of flexibility.)
CASE 1: FROM START-UP TO NEAR GROWTH
Small BankClients Less than 5,000No. of AOs Less than 38Organization • Integrated with branch operations.
• MF account officers usually report directly to the branch manager or loan officer.• For larger operations, MF supervisor oversees day-to-day operations over MF operations.• Clear lines of reporting to the branch head.• Microfinance personnel supported by regular bank support units such as HR, Treasury, etc.
CASE 1: FROM START-UP TO NEAR GROWTH
CASE 2: FROM GROWTH TO MATURITY
Medium BankClients 5,000 to 15,000No. of AOs 32 - 105Organization • Integrated with branch operations.
• Usually have an MF supervisor overseeing MF operations and reporting directly to the branch manager.• MF operations spread over a number of branches requiring MF Head Office unit supervision.• Consolidation of reports at head office.• MF operations still supported by head office units.
CASE 2: FROM GROWTH TO MATURITY
CASE 3: MATURITY TO …Large Bank
Clients 15,000 to 25,000
No. of AOs 105 to 168
Organization • Begins to affect bank culture.• Greater senior management attention and resources. • Majority of MF operations still integrated with branch operations, but MF lending offices being established.• Usually have an MF area supervisor overseeing MF operations reporting directly to head office.• MF account officers have supervisors who report to the branch manager.• MF operations supported by dedicated head office units.
CASE 3: MATURITY TO …
CASE 4: NEXT GROWTH STAGE OR DECLINE
Another Large Bank
Clients Greater than 25,000
No. of AOs Greater than 160
Organization • Splintered culture between regular bank and microfinance operations.• Establishment of dedicated senior management team for microfinance.• Mix of MF operations attached to the bank branches and MF operations attached to dedicated lending offices.• Usually have an MF senior officer overseeing bank-wide MF operations at head office.• Branch managers or MF area supervisors have oversight over MF operations.• MF operations supported by dedicated head office units.
CASE 4: NEXT GROWTH STAGE OR DECLINE
Banks need to often re-align organizational structure and systems to meet the challenges of growth:More clients leading to more capital requirements More capital leading to more fund raising
activitiesMore clients leading to more staff and support
peopleMore people leading to more management time,
attention, and resourcesMore management time, attention, and resources
leading to more management specialization and control.
CONCLUSIONSA clear vision and detailed
strategies are not enough.At a certain scale, employee
behavior modification and management training have limited impact.
Accept reality of complexity in large organizations.
Therefore, attention to reporting structures and improving bank-wide management systems become critical.
McKinsey's Performance Leadership Survey:An in-depth questionnaire designed to
explore an organization's effectiveness. Set up in 2002, the database contains
information from almost 400 discrete business units of 231 global businesses in all major regions and industry sectors.
More than 115,000 individual managers and employees have participated.
The study revealed the following key strategies to organizational effectiveness:Clear vision and strategyAccountabilityOpenness and trust, basis of performance
