Abstract: In the rapidly changing global business environment multinational organisations experience the principal design challenge in managing differentiation in work culture and organisational structure towards achieving predetermined goals. Organisational design is a process involving development of control measures that help in coordinating organisational tasks and motivate the people to improve their performance. This paper discusses managing the values and organisational change in financial institutions during economic recession and driving sustainable growth. The discussion demonstrates a sustainable paradigm for managing performance and sustainable growth of financial institutions by converging traditional design activities, work culture, and monitoring and evaluation measures. Practitioners can benefit from the discussion presented in the study to clarify, improve and enrich new approaches of organisational designing during economic crisis.
