New Insights into Organization Development & Change Management

The Challenge faced by Organizations and Teams today and going forward

Why do only 30% of organizations achieve any level of true Agility?

Why do 75%+ of Organization Transformation and Change initiatives fail?

How do we build Organization Resilience for today’s VUCA environment?

Why is Culture Change difficult? and how can it be improved?

Why do teams jump to solutions without proper problem/opportunity diagnosis?

How do we become a Leading Performer in our Market?

Organizations are complex human systems with multiple ‘Inters’ across the thousands of different elements (people, process, information, technology, etc). Existing management science models though useful are not sophisticated enough to deal with todays world and the organization’s environment., they lack good diagnostic tools and are often simplified down to a 3 step or 5 level approach that is easy to communicate and understand but lacks depth.

The consequences of not facing these Organization Challenges correctly

The questions above give us the facts that, performance, improvement and change have a high probability of delivering less than expected outputs and outcomes, often despite investing in training, tools and expertise. For the organization to change and improve and that impact to be visible, hundreds or even thousands of loosly or tightly related and aligned actions must be successfully planned and completed to achieve the high level aims and ambitions, and we know from research and experience there are different outcomes and levels of performance across and trhought any organization and/or team. Attaining Leadership means the organization or team is ‘one of a few’ and requires pervasive advantage in every aspect of the organization.

Emerging Insights, Methods & Tools for successful Organization Change and Development

Unitary Developmental Theory (UDT) is a normative theory of Development, Habituation, Degradation and Recovery that is equally valid for people, organizations and economies, and published as such in a series of Volumes by Routledge from November 2022. UDT comes with a Model, Method and Tools that provide strong diagnosis of an organization or team’s Dynamic and Construct Capabilities, their gaps and shortfalls and most importantly calibrated guidance at every level across the thousands of actions that combine to assure the target high level results are achieved.

The OD & Capability Introductory Workshop

For the first time see, and gain an understanding of how to manage and lead your organization by more than its outputs, but for what it is – a Dynamic Socio-Economic System Gain a perspective those Dynamics and how you can identify those that are working well and those that are not See a measurement and diagnostic approach that is a ‘whole system’ approach that complements and even surpasses existing metrics See revealed the same reasons why there have been such high failure rates for development/change interventions across all 3 domains (organization, team & digital) and understand the related paradigmatic deficit which UDT fixes For the first time, learn of the 3 Mindset Configurations and how they help or hinder organizational growth Understand how Agility and Resilience are interlinked with the model’s Maturization process Demystify otherwise elusive Culture Change based on the theory’s clinical definition of Culture as Habituated Maturational Stage Understand a tool that rationalizes and enhances HR functions such as Performance Management, Training & Development, Career Management, Competence & Succession Planning, Socialization, Team Development, Recruitment, Induction, etc. Learn literally from the horse’s mouth – the creator of the theory and the team that developed the online tools

The Benefits of the OD & Capability Building Workshop

It is facilitated by experienced tutors who have been involved in leading and participating in both incremental and transformational Organization Development, and who have contributed to academia and knowledge development in management science.
It provides participants with an understanding of OD & Capability Maturity Management"Best Practice" and how Organization's function and learn, introducing Next Generation OD & Change Management required for today's evolving VUCA environment.
It looks at the "Root Cause" of Change Failure at each functioning level for every organization system element, and how that has informed the development and application of Next Generation UDT Theory and Models.
It introduces the three reference models (Organization, Team & Digital) and their supporting Assessment tools that support the day to day application of UDT for an organization and/or team's development.
It is time efficient, with options for participation in the workshop minimizing disruption to participants day to day duties.
It is a basis for Foundation Certification by the Institute.
