ORGANIZATION assessment & DEVELOPMENT
"90% of all the knowledge needed to improve an organization already exists within the organization. It never gets to the top." Michael Beer, Harvard Professor
What is Organization Development (OD)?
Organizations must change and adapt in order to survive. Organization development is a systematic, planned process for managing change that increases organizational effectiveness and improves results.
Our consulting approach is designed to build on strengths and to develop the capacity of our clients. Consultation should not make you more dependent; it should make you more innovative, more adaptive and more skilled at solving problems on your own.
Assessment
The key to successful organizational interventions is accurate organizational diagnosis. Turknett can provide assessment tools that enable management to quickly scan the climate and culture of an organization and identify its strengths and weaknesses. The assessment measures employee evaluations different elements of organizational health, such as leadership, communication, and motivation.
The diagnosis provided provides an organization with the information to precisely and accurately define its problems and strengths. Accurate and precise definitions of problem areas are the key to developing tailored interventions, which effectively address an organization's developmental needs.
Appreciative Approach
We take an appreciative approach to organization and cultural change – that is, we keep those processes and practices that are working well in place – changing only those that are ineffective or outdated. Our psychological expertise allows us to address underlying issues that may be interfering with change and real success.
Whether you are facing an issue (cross-departmental infighting, a dysfunctional executive team, low morale, high turnover, etc.) that is hampering business results or need help implementing a major change, we work in a way that reduces resistance by finding and building on strengths.
Turknett Leadership Group customizes its intervention to a particular organization's needs. Most importantly, we help the organization to get involved in identifying and implementing solutions to the problems defined.
We can help you determine your organization's strengths and weaknesses and identify appropriate plans for development. Leadership development is a powerful lever for organization and cultural change. Our Executive Development Program is appropriate at the individual level, to get each leader focused on the top organization change priorities. Coupled with Leadership Team Development targeted to increasing understanding, alignment, and leadership within the leadership ranks, effective, sustainable change can result.
We have a number of proprietary instruments available for assessment of Culture, organization Effectiveness, Retention and more. See Diagnostics
