Organizational Assessment
Partnering with CEOs/Leadership Teams for Organizational Development & Alignment
We use four main components for guidance of our assessment; each of these areas are crucial to a company’s culture, functionality and success. Each Org Assessment is uniquely tailored to fit the schedule of your company and employees.
Structure
We work with you to assess decentralization of management systems. We identify strengths and opportunities for structure development.
People
We discover key positions measured against character and competence. We review the connection between leadership and employees with proven data-driven methods.
Systems
We review your workflow systems to understand connectivity, efficiency & scalability for all departments. We use our framework to assess and propel org development.
Processes
We look at key aspects of your processes and best practices. Such as recruiting, hiring, onboarding, training, operations, sales/marketing and finance.
Our Priorities
As trusted advisors and partners in your organization, we are committed to ensuring that our work is clear to your staff. It is not our intention to be "undercover" or find fault with your staff or leadership. The assessment is a guiding tool and resource for development and alignment.
People First
We keep our communication high throughout the process; this requires that your leadership fully understands the process and how to respond when a team member wants more clarity or has questions.
Low Disruption
We want your productivity to stay high during this time, so we take great pride in ensuring that we are concise with our questions and are timely with our process.
Diagnose with evidence
Just as a doctor wants to have some tangible results to ensure that the diagnosis is relevant, we too, want to ensure we aren't just using intuition. We approach our work with supporting data.
Eight To Great
We use our proprietary Eight To Great to dive deeper into the DNA of your organization. We use
each component as a guiding outline for pre-planned 1-on-1 interviews, site visits, observations and
customer interactions.
Analyzing From 2 Perspectives
See below for example questions of each area of the Eight To Great. Each section will have interview-style questions & 3+ questions that are the same for both CEO/President's and employees. We use 1-on-1 interviews, observations, site visits, and customer interactions to help you assess your organization.
