Future Organisation

Your partner to build a future-ready & high-performing organisation.

Deloitte’s Future Organisation team provides advice on operating models, organisation, and workforce design to help your organisation to navigate complex challenges and achieve your objectives. Our solutions enhance effectiveness, support workforce changes, and promote long-term growth. We are your partner in building a resilient, high-performing organisation ready for the future. 

In the past, organisations relied on size and stability for competitive advantage. Today, to thrive, they must recognize that they are both mechanical and social constructs, necessitating innovative approaches to operating models and workforce design. By rethinking their structures and work methods, organisations can embrace technological disruption, meet evolving consumer expectations, and seize new market opportunities. Deloitte’s Future Organisation team serves as a premier partner, empowering organisations with innovative workforce solutions that enhance adaptability and foster sustainable impact in a tech-infused, dynamic world.

Our approach is grounded in close collaboration and bespoke solutions, leveraging established frameworks to identify the unique challenges and opportunities each organisation faces. We take a holistic and multidisciplinary approach, ensuring that our solutions are sustainable and aligned with the organisation’s strategic goals. Importantly, we encompass the entire employee lifecycle—from operating model design to talent management—ensuring that all components work together to drive value. This integrated perspective allows us to assist clients in crafting strategies that not only address current challenges but also prepare them for future complexities, ensuring seamless integration and lasting impact. 

An operating model that’s built for new business strategies and today’s market dynamics is critical. It’s one thing to have the ambition and strategy to stay ahead of the market; companies also need a way to execute. We help to develop the blueprint of your organisation to deliver on this strategy, articulating the capabilities you need and how they are structured to create value. By connecting operating model design to talent management, you can anticipate what's around the corner, effectively prepare your organisation for change, and boost the long-term success of your business, projects, and investments. 

As organisations race to re-invent themselves for a more digital, dynamic, and purpose-driven world, organisation design has become a strategic imperative. It’s no longer just about structure; it is about designing for speed, innovation, inclusivity, and resilience. When done right, organisation design unleashes the full potential of people and systems, enabling organisations to scale bold ideas, navigate complexity, and thrive through change. Our team helps leaders shape future-ready organisations by re-imagining their design, activating new capabilities, strengthening networks, and embedding ways of working that drive transformation and effectiveness from within, while ensuring that talent management is an integral part of this design. 

We help organisations embrace agility to cultivate a culture centred on customer satisfaction, continuous improvement, and collaboration. Our focus is on empowering teams to enhance value delivery and respond swiftly to evolving business needs. A successful Agile transformation heavily relies on the people involved. Our approach supports clients in driving optimal adoption and utilization of Agile practices, maximizing benefits, and embedding change within a future-proof organisation. By aligning Agile practices with workforce strategies, we ensure that talent is effectively engaged and utilized throughout the transformation process. 

We assist business and HR leaders in translating developments such as Artificial Intelligence, new business models, and other strategic ambitions into a long-term workforce strategy, underpinned by labour and market intelligence, workforce analytics, and quantitative business and workforce forecasts and scenarios. We help identify future critical roles and skills, optimize workforce composition, and determine the sourcing mix essential for executing your future strategy. Our integrated approach allows us to assess gaps in the current workforce and, together with you, co-create a future workforce plan that closes these gaps, ensuring your workforce is well prepared for the future. 

We help organisations ensure that the workforce is an integrated part of organisational strategy, providing availability and accessibility to the right people (capabilities/skills) at the right place and time. A future-focused approach to workforce strategy is essential to realize its full potential value and enhance overall organisational effectiveness. 

Workforce Transition involves effectively and compliantly identifying and addressing employee impacts as a result of organisational and work transformations (e.g., M&A, restructuring, and/or new policies, processes, and technology). This is a critical component of any transformation, ensuring legal compliance, minimizing business disruption, preventing negative media attention, reducing transformation effort and cost, contributing to a positive employee experience, and safeguarding critical talent retention.  

By integrating our services—from operating model design through to talent management—we provide unique value to our clients, establishing a comprehensive and coherent approach to organisational transformation that is both strategic and impactful. This end-to-end perspective allows us to deliver tailored solutions that not only address immediate needs but also position our clients for long-term success.
