First day
Exploring commitment to the organisation, symptoms and values
Measuring commitment
- To assess the organisation’s current state, participants are asked to rate, on a scale of 1 to 10, how likely they would recommend their company as an employer to their friends and acquaintances.
- We then collect suggestions on what is needed to improve this rating, identifying current operational barriers and challenges.
- We review and evaluate these organisational issues, prioritizing them from the most critical to the least significant from a senior management perspective.
The goal of this section is to identify organisational symptoms and gauge the current level of commitment to the organisation, all within an atmosphere of honesty.
Organisational values
- Organisations, like people, go through various lifecycle stages. Each developmental phase has characteristic operational modes and faces specific, often unique problems, which must be addressed to progress to the next organisational lifecycle stage. These behaviors and traits can be typified and developed.
- The constant goal is to ensure sustainable growth and maintain a growth trajectory.
- The program prepares participants to identify the lifecycle stages of organisational units, providing knowledge on the organisational lifecycle model. Participants learn about the characteristics of these stages, along with typical problems and opportunities associated with them.
In this segment, we will deepen the understanding of existing organisational values and ensure they are practical and actionable. These values aid in decision-making where formal policies may not provide guidance.
Determining organisational lifecycle stage
- Based on a presentation on organisational lifecycles, participants, with detailed knowledge of problems, opportunities, challenges, and characteristics, will accurately determine the current lifecycle stage of the organisation and its subunits.
- We ask each leader from every single subunit to individually mark in their workbook which stage their unit, the organisation, and the parent company are currently in.
- By comparing and aggregating these assessments, we can determine how uniformly the organisation operates from this perspective and how well the issues and symptoms listed in the first section correspond to the typical and extraordinary problems of the identified organisational lifecycle stage.
