Org redesign & change in Latin America

Latin America's reference Organization Design & Change Management diploma

AI is rewriting how work is organized, and the operating model your company runs on today was not designed for it. This diploma trains whoever has to redesign the organization to compete in that reality —structure, processes, roles, and capabilities— and lead the change that redesign demands, on the field's most solid fundamentals: the frameworks of McKinsey and Deloitte, Jay Galbraith's Star Model, and the change management of Kotter and Prosci (ADKAR), with a faculty of practicing leaders. It is not an HR course or an org-chart workshop: it is a business decision —your team learning to redesign the company, applied to a real challenge from your own.

The LBS difference

This isn't an academic program. It's the ability to solve the problem with confidence.

The return isn't measured in credits or a diploma. It's measured in walking out able to solve a real business problem or take on a new responsibility with technical judgment and strategic vision. Every session is designed to move you from what you know to what you decide — and to what you execute.

An academic course teaches you the theory. LBS prepares you for the moment you have to decide.

Practicing faculty, not lecturers

You learn from leaders in active practice who live today the problems you're about to solve — not from academics who study them. They bring the judgment of the field, not of theory.

Executive flipped classroom

You work through the theory beforehand; live time is spent applying, debating, and deciding on real cases. Every session is deliberate practice, not a lecture.

Validated by the market, not by an endorsement

Its authority comes from reputation, from practicing faculty, and from the adoption of the companies that trust us — the same logic by which the market recognizes the top firms. It doesn't rely on a university seal.

Global, current, and proven over time

A global, continuously updated perspective, sustained by several generations of executives who have already gone through the program. What's new, tested by the rigor of those who came before.

How it works

At LBS we don't use live sessions to deliver theory you can read on your own. You master the fundamentals beforehand, in asynchronous pre-work at your own pace, so that time with practicing faculty goes where it truly creates return: applying the knowledge to real cases and business decisions. The program closes with a capstone that isn't an academic exercise, but the solution to a real problem in your own organization.

  1. Asynchronous pre-work

    You master the fundamentals on your own, before each live session.

  2. Live sessions with practicing faculty

    You apply those fundamentals to real cases and business decisions.

  3. Capstone

    You solve a real problem in your own organization, with tangible return from day one.

For your organization

Is this certification for you, or to prepare your whole team?

A certification quickly closes a specific gap. But when the challenge is building a capability across an entire area or aligning a regional team, what you need isn't a course: it's a partner. LBS designs tailored programs together with your organization and brings first-rate training wherever your team is, not just to the capitals.

Frequently asked

What leaders weigh before choosing the specialization.

What is organization design and how is it done?

Organization design is the discipline of defining how an organization is structured to execute its strategy: structure, processes, roles, coordination mechanisms, and capabilities. It is done starting from strategy (not the org chart), applying models like Galbraith's Star, and leading change with frameworks like Kotter or ADKAR (Prosci). The LBS diploma applies it to a real redesign of your organization.

What does an Organization Design & Development diploma include?

It covers organizational diagnosis, design models (Galbraith's Star, structures and operating models), sizing of roles and capabilities, and change management (Kotter, Prosci's ADKAR) so the redesign gets implemented and doesn't stay a PowerPoint. The LBS diploma integrates AI's impact on work and is applied to a real case under the Flipped Classroom model.

What is the best organization design and change management certification in Latin America?

Latam Business School's Organization Design, Development & Change Management diploma and certification is the regional reference: built on the frameworks of McKinsey and Deloitte, Galbraith's Star Model, and the change methodologies of Kotter and Prosci, with a practicing faculty and application to a real case. It certifies your ability to redesign and implement, not just to theorize.

What sets organization design apart from a simple org chart?

The org chart is just the picture of who reports to whom. Organization design decides the complete system that produces results: how capabilities are grouped, how decisions and information flow, which processes coordinate, and what cultural change it demands. Changing the org chart without redesigning that system changes nothing —and it's the most common mistake.
