description [eng] This thesis addresses the transformation of organizational structures and its impact on employee motivation through three complementary articles. The central objective is to analyze the forgotten effects of these change processes, often underestimated in the literature, and to understand which key factors influence and how they interfere for motivation within organizations in transformation. The first article presents an innovative methodology, registered as intellectual property of algorithm/developed software, to calculate the forgotten effects using a fuzzy mathematical framework based on embedded Experton structures. This approach overcomes the limitations of traditional methods, which tend to depend on a single source of information and generate biased results. The use of this method allows for the integration of several sources or experts without losing the reliability of the original data, making visible relationships that normally remain hidden. The second article adopts a qualitative approach to study the transition from hierarchical structures to more agile frameworks in large corporations in the financial sector. Based on contingency theory and five case studies, it proposes a guiding model for implementing agility, detecting the key factors and highlighting the importance of cultural aspects. Finally, the third article integrates the previous results by applying the algorithm implemented in the software FEXE to measure the forgotten effects on employee motivation, based on the key factors detected in article 2 and using survey data from employees who have experienced structural change and cultural transformation. This final contribution delivers strategic orientation for organizational structure transformation and the management of its implications for people.

L’objectiu central és analitzar els efectes oblidats d’aquests processos de canvi, sovint menystinguts en la literatura, i entendre quins factors clau influeixen i com interfereixen en la motivació dins de les organitzacions en transformació. El primer article presenta una metodologia innovadora, registrada com a propietat intel·lectual d'algoritme/programari desenvolupat, per calcular els efectes oblidats mitjançant un marc matemàtic difús. Aquest plantejament supera les limitacions dels mètodes tradicionals, que solen dependre d’una sola font d’informació o experts i generen resultats esbiaixats. L'ús d'aquest mètode permet integrar diverses fonts sense perdre la fiabilitat de les dades originals, fent visibles relacions que normalment resten ocultes. El segon article adopta una mirada qualitativa per estudiar el pas d’estructures jeràrquiques a marcs més àgils en grans corporacions del sector financer. Basat en la teoria de la contingència i cinc casos d’estudi, proposa un model-guia per implementar agilitat, detectant els factors clau i destacant la importància dels aspectes culturals. Finalment, el tercer article integra els resultats anteriors aplicant l'algoritme del programa FEXE per mesurar els efectes oblidats en la motivació dels empleats, basant-se en els factors clau detectats en l'article 2 i utilitzant dades d'enquesta als empleats que han viscut un canvi estructural i transformació cultural. Aquesta contribució final ofereix una orientació estratègica per a la transformació de l'estructura organitzativa i la gestió de les seves implicacions per a les persones.Universitat de BarcelonaBòria Reverter, SefaGil Lafuente, JaimeUniversitat de Barcelona.
