Organizational Development
In sports, it’s possible to hit a ball and make it fly
a good distance without any follow-through on the swing. But the
power of following through on the momentum of the action makes
the difference between short-term success and a home run, ace,
or hole in one! In the organizational development phase, we act
as the project manager to help the CEO and management team implement
the recommendations born from the assessment process.
We begin a coaching process with the CEO to stay highly focused
on the top priorities identified during the assessment. The big
goals: Manage the company’s survival, growth, and perpetuation,
and increase its financial success. Coach/advise CEO to make great
people decisions. We follow up to ensure that what’s learned
in training is actually installed back at the office. Installing
leadership/accountability for performance, and encourage balanced
life at the leadership level.
We measure success according to carefully selected financial
goals, but often it turns out that making money is not the most
important outcome for our clients. Positive change at work inevitably
leads to positive changes in personal life, and it is not uncommon
for our clients to make major breakthroughs in their personal
relationships as a result of what they learn through our coaching
and training.
Finally, organizational development helps distill a clear vision
and action plan for what’s next, both business and personal.
