S28E16 - HBR Minute Rewind - How Apple Is Organized for Innovation: The Functional Organization Nov 28, 2021

Show notes

In this "HBR Minute Rewind" HCI Podcast episode, Dr. Jonathan H. Westover (https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathanhwestover/) explores the recent HBR video, "How Apple Is Organized for Innovation: The Functional Organization" (Originally Aired February 8, 2021). See the video here: https://youtu.be/5hENFA3CJUY. Video Overview: "When Steve Jobs arrived back at Apple in 1997, he laid off general managers of all business units and combined disparate functional departments into one functional organization. (Part 1 of 3) This is part 1 of 3 Part 2--The Leadership Model: https://youtu.be/d5enAGG51PQ; Part 3--Leadership at Scale: https://youtu.be/hczW4Bqf3Qk . The adoption of a functional structure may have been unsurprising for a company of Apple’s size at the time. What is surprising—in fact, remarkable—is that Apple retains it today, even though the company is nearly 40 times as large in terms of revenue and far more complex than it was in 1998. Senior vice presidents are in charge of functions, not products. As was the case with Jobs before him, CEO Tim Cook occupies the only position on the organizational chart where the design, engineering, operations, marketing, and retail of any of Apple’s main products meet. In effect, besides the CEO, the company operates with no conventional general managers: people who control an entire process from product development through sales and are judged according to a P&L statement."
