To deal with this organisational change and reattribute roles and responsibilities, organisations can use such performance management tools as RACI. This is a quick and easy way to address the problem.

This approach can involve all members of a team. This will allow disagreements and overlaps to be flagged.

By creating an RACI chart, organisations and employees can see what areas need to be streamlined. Alongside, confusion, power struggles and who has taken on a heavier workload.

The organisation can then address and discuss with employees to balance the roles and responsibilities on the chart. Staff will feel involved in the decision-making so employee engagement can rise.

Furthermore, people will have a greater understanding of what they and their co-workers are doing. Whilst some may even experience a release of pressure from any office politics or imbalance in workload.

This is all important for a fresh start after organisational change but may also need to be addressed by every organisation to improve performance.
