Change Management Models: The McKinsey 7S Framework

The McKinsey 7S Framework is a management model that was developed and introduced in the late 1970s by former McKinsey consultants, Tom Peters and Robert Waterman. The model is often used as an organizational analysis tool, but it can be applied in a wide variety of situations. The McKinsey 7S framework is also effective for gap assessments, future strategy decisions, and organizational change initiatives. It's a theoretical framework that looks at seven key elements of an organization, which we'll go over in this course. The framework is based on the theory that, for an organization to perform well, or manage change successfully, these seven elements need to be aligned and mutually reinforcing.
