"After attending, I felt like someone had turned on the lights in a dimly lit room. For the first time I truly understood how our company functioned and what we needed to do to improve our performance."

Program participant, Coach Leatherware

By attending this program, you will learn a powerful framework to better understand your organization. The framework, known as the "transformation model," reduces the complexity of an organization to seven key elements that account for its success.Graphic

These seven elements enable you to diagnose the current functioning of your organization and know where and how to make improvements.

What You Will Do:

During the program you will:

  • Learn how to use the transformation model by applying it to a case study.
  • Do a comprehensive assessment of the current performance of your organization.
  • Benchmark your organization in relation to others within your community/industry.
  • Develop a shared understanding of your greatest strengths and weaknesses.
  • Target and prioritize the top opportunities for change.
  • Develop detailed improvement plans.
Structure and Format:

This is a very "hands-on" program. During each module, you will:

  • Learn the meaning of one of the seven elements of an organization’s performance.
  • Divide into small groups to assess your organization’s performance on this element.
  • Get back together and share your findings with the larger group.
  • Summarize and identify key learnings and opportunities.

The program can be delivered in a modularized format (2½- to 3- hour sessions spaced over time) or in a 2- to 2 ½- day format.

It usually involves not only the leaders of the organization but also other key people representing a cross-section of all employees.
