ORGANIZATIONAL DEVELOPMENT
A targeted analysis of the root causes behind organizational dysfunction; redesigning a team's structure and engagement models; aligning talent, incentives, and outcomes; these are just a few of the things ETHOS can do for you.
WHAT DOES ORGANIZATIONAL DEVELOPMENT REALLY MEAN?
While this work can take many forms, the pillars of great organizational development work include:
ORGANIZATIONAL EFFECTIVENESS
This is one of the most common needs of our clients. At ETHOS, we don't do band-aids. We don't treat symptoms. We discover and address root causes while designing solutions that actually work in the real world. We are not ivory tower academics discussing theories that could never be executed in every day life. We are operators just like you and we will find the underlying causes of challenge within your organization and help you make it better.
ORGANIZATIONAL DESIGN
As a result of new strategic initiatives, learnings from organizational effectiveness work, or internal realignments, it is often necessary to look at part, or all, of an organization and redesign reporting structures and models of operation and engagement. We will ensure that the design of your team takes advantage of your culture, processes, and talent.
TALENT DEVELOPMENT
It's incredibly important to give your talent a concise, understandable, and achievable path towards success. This includes your high performers, struggling team members, and everyone in between. We can create a holistic ecosystem of career and skill development pathways for every member of your team that will allow them to be in the driver's seat of their own career success. This is also vital for talent planning and creating a bench for all key positions within your organization.
LEARNING
Often treated as a separate function within many organizations, at ETHOS we fundamentally believe that the idea of learning and growth is a common thread that should be incorporated into every aspect of a team's function. Learning isn't always a course you go to or an article you read, it's a part of your cultural DNA and is often the difference between long-term success or mediocrity.
PROCESS ANALYSIS & REDESIGN
Sometimes you need to get down into the weeds of an organization and break apart the everyday processes that govern the long-term output of any team. We can reverse engineer any process down to its constituent parts in order to analyze and redesign even the most detailed element of your work functions. When your processes are optimized, the outputs of those processes, which are your core products, will be at their best.
Great organizational development work is often about guiding teams and their talent along their own maturity curves. It doesn't just happen, it takes time, dedication, and the people who know how to do it better than anyone. That's what we do.
