Human-Centric Organisation Design with Phanish Puranam

​Phanish Puranam is a Professor of Strategy, the Roland Berger Chaired Professor of Strategy and Organisation Design at INSEAD.

​ Besides publishing his research extensively in peer-reviewed journals, Phanish has also written several books, including the “The Microstructure of Organizations” (Oxford University Press, 2018) and "Corporate Strategy: Tools for analysis and decisions" (co-authored with Bart Vanneste, Cambridge University Press, 2016) which is used as a reference in MBA programs around the world.

​His current work has focused on human-centric organisation design -  understanding the evolutionary adaptations that lead us to prefer certain modes of organisations and how these can inform the design of non-hierarchical organisations, the design of informal organisation, and organisational architectures that support self-assembling teams.
