Free Report- Organizational Assessment

  • Is your organization achieving it’s potential?

As organizations move into the post-Coronavirus New Normal, what will be your organization’s strategy – your Coronavirus Countermove? One thing is certain: a return to a “business as usual” approach could very well render your organization irrelevant to those competitors who are prepared with a New Normal Battleplan. Hope is not a strategy!

BUSINESS STRATEGY IS THE BATTLEPLAN FOR A BETTER FUTURE.

New rules have been forced upon us therefore New Rules of Engagement are required if our organizations are to succeed in this New Normal World.

Is your organization prepared?

Opportunity

As a small businessowner myself, I too understand the Stress, Anxiety, and Uncertainty brought on by lost sales, a new customer and employee safety first mindset, along with a deep recession economy that no one could have planned for. However, we can certainly plan going forward and Plan we must if we Plan to Win!
The opportunity hidden within this pandemic crisis is a competitive one: an opportunity to outflank and outmaneuver your competition who may be caught flatfooted, in a retrenchment, cost reduction mode, and slow to respond. When competition retreats, that is the precise time to double-down; an opportunity to gain ground and leapfrog; an opportunity to Attack!

“Never waste a crisis.”-Sir Winston Churchill

Time To Reboot Your Organization To:

  1. Regroup, reorganize, and refocus.
  2. Reengage your workforce.
  3. Regain lost sales.

What is Organizational Effectiveness (OE)?

OE is an operating system for achieving organizational goals. The OE program is an executive level, day and a half offsite educational program in organizational effectiveness. A post-Coronavirus battleplan.

Program Focus

Strategy Planning
Alignment
Strategy Execution

A Strategy to business is comparable to a blueprint for building a house. Would you build a house without a blueprint? Would you engage your competition without a strategy? A strategy without Alignment is worthless, as is alignment without a strategy. Alignment is the link between strategy and Execution. Developing a winning strategy is about figuring out how to win. The stakes are too high not to win. Playing merely to participate is self-defeating – it’s a recipe for mediocrity.

Who Should Attend?

Executive team: Owner, CEO, COO, CFO, HRO.

Ideas Compete, People Collaborate

The best solutions come from the collective wisdom of individual insight. An intense, exhilarating climate of discussion and debate. Participants have transformational experiences that turn them into more empowered, impactful, and strategic leaders.
