EFFECTIVE TEAMWORK

A Critical Part of an Organization’s Success

DO YOU NEED TO MAKE A SHIFT?

As I reflect on three decades of experience as an Organizational Development (OD) Consultant, I’ve noticed one constant in the challenge organizations face. And that is the need to:

Develop and deliver products and services better and faster

to maintain their competitive advantage.

Is this you?

You spend thousands of dollars and hours on sophisticated, carefully planned strategies (Sales, Marketing, R&D, etc.) and yet sometimes you do not get the return on your investment you were looking for.

So what could be the problem?

The “human system” defines the culture. Too often a company’s strategies, imposed from above, are at odds with the ingrained practices and attitudes of its culture. Executives may underestimate how much a strategy’s effectiveness depends on cultural alignment.

A strategy

that is at odds with a company’s culture is doomed.

Culture trumps strategy every time.

This Was Me!

During my tenure in a Fortune 500 company, I became increasingly frustrated with “open enrollment” team building and leadership development programs aimed at personal awareness and job skills development. While there was some measure of success with these types of programs, there were two major problems: a) they did not change the culture at all or b) they did not change it quickly enough. Individual contributors would go back into their respective organizations and were left to their own devices to effect change.

So I took action. I decided to use my OD expertise and change the way I serviced my clients. And the end results were amazing!

Unlike the traditional team and leadership development programs, I employed a process of change aimed at organizational transformation through systematic diagnosis and customized, planned interventions with a focus on intact work teams.

Like my clients, here are some of the benefits that you could experience:

  • Save time and money
  • Bring employee productivity and business results back in line with your goals
  • Turn ineffective, ingrained leadership styles and practices into ones that meet the needs of the business
  • Energize and engage your most resistant leaders and team members
  • End the anxiety of covert power struggles, conflict, and divergent goals
  • Avoid the number one reason organizations do not gain or sustain their competitive advantage

So what challenges are you facing today? Does some facet of your organization need a few critical shifts in behavior? Where do you start? First observe the behavior prevalent in your organization now, and imagine how it would be If your people’s behavior totally supported your business objectives. And then ask yourself, “If my company had the kind of culture we aspire to, in pursuit of the strategies we have chosen, what kinds of new behaviors would be common? And what ingrained behaviors would be gone?”

Cultural intervention can and should be an early priority—a way to clarify what your organization is capable of. Targeted and integrated team-based interventions, designed around changing critical behaviors, will make your organization more attractive to both your employees and your customers.

Let me help you to make a shift in your organization and leave a legacy that will be felt and remembered.
