how organisational development works

Organisational Development is a all about improving the health and effectiveness of  businesses and organisations. O.D. work can be invaluable to leaders because it gives a supportive, relational framework to aid the health and effectiveness of the organisation. It also stimulates fresh and improved approaches and processes to help aid the establishment of their vision, whilst supporting the dynamics of changes initiated.

what we do

We work alongside directors, leaders and key managers to:

1.    Identify what areas of change and potential growth they wish to see.
2.    Decide together how to gather information that gives a review of the current position of the organisation .
3.    Draw up a tailored scope of work and programme with directors and leaders, with the aim of problem solving, identifying and mobilising resources and strengths within the organisation. Outcomes might include for example: 1-to-1 coaching of key staff members, training, workshops, facilitation of meetings brainstorming and problem solving’
4.    The plan is outworked and then reviewed.

As with life coaching, there are many tools and approaches to OD work that are dependent upon the client, their brief, size, budget, and focus. That is why we offer a free initial consultation for potential clients. In this, we discuss where they are, what they need, and whether I might be the right professional for them to work alongside in order to make their organisation great.

our approach

 As an OD practitioner, I am a helper and catalyst for change for the leaders of an organisation. I am also there to look at and support the health of the whole organisation. I believe all voices in the organisation have value and wisdom that can be utilised. My aim is to assist the organisation’s own problem-solving skills and adaptability for ongoing sustainability. I believe through both experience and academic research, that when leaders of organisations ‘create space’ to invest in themselves and the people they lead: physically, emotionally, psychologically and spiritually, there are huge measurable benefits for everyone.
