Options For Change

Let us be your outsourced OD or HR department

Few organizations today can afford to keep on staff all the organizational development talent they need. In our 25 year history, we have had many successful long-term engagements with clients where we have added critical expertise from strategic planning to change management, team building, training and executive coaching.

We are currently engaged with a $2 billion health care company emerging from a turnaround, working with senior management to implement drastic strategic and cultural changes. Our proprietary culture and change models provided the framework they needed to understand and "sell" the transformation.

Working closely with the VP of HR and her staff, we supplemented their internal capabilities by:

Providing team interventions on numerous senior teams, corporate projects, departments and business units. Team effectiveness and project completion has increased significantly with our ability to break down silos and promote cross-functional teamwork.
Resolving long-standing conflicts by changing behavior in a matter or weeks instead of years. People have been so impressed with our ability to resolve conflicts quickly and permanently, they affectionately refer to us as the "company therapist".
Designing and implementing their Core Values program to support their new culture of excellence. Senior leader engagement was so successful that all the top executive teams in the company are now participating, as well as key 20 corporate projects.
Providing Team Leadership Training and Tools which have become an integral part of their management development curriculum. A key aspect to the implementation was building a branded and customized version of our groundbreaking FasTeams® online toolset to concretize the behaviors and sustain the change.
Launching an Executive Coaching program to reinforce the team training, interventions and corporate values. Vice Presidents and Directors now view participation as career enhancing and as a valuable follow-up to Center for Creative Leadership and Gallup leadership development programs.

The results:

First two profitable years in a row, after previous years of hundred million dollar losses.
Gallup rankings in the 75th percentile for workforce engagement.
Top NCQA and JD Power ratings for both health care and member satisfaction.
