We bring extensive expertise to supporting management teams and developing organizations across national, cultural and divisional boundaries. Effective Organization Development work must maintain a balance of targeted interventions and a holistic, systemic approach to your organization. Our OD support will help you understand and adapt to continuing changes and challenges in your organization’s environment and align your people with each other and with your internal culture, systems and processes to match these challenges and changes. To achieve the best results, OD must simultaneously include and align four spheres of engagement as outlined below: 
Leadership Development and Talent Management are two examples of our Organization Development programs. We also bring considerable experience in consulting on M&A's, corporate vision, values and culture development, intercultural and transcultural team building and performance, systems and process development and reengineering, wellness and organizational health A sample of our past and ongoing projects and their results are included below: - M&A Integration: Consulted with a newly integrated organization on transforming the two existing cultures into a powerful new one more focused on creating bottom line improvements. Results included a new and targeted appraisal, compensation and benefits system that helped employees re-orient their time and energy improving bottom line performance.
- Organizational Culture Transformation: Guiding the transformation of an R&D culture in a major automotive manufacturer from an “I-shaped” center to a “T-shaped” center resulting in significant product improvement, cost advantages, leadership, decision-making enhancement and global coordination ability.
- Systems & Processes Reengineering: Tasked by senior management of a service industry organization to help revitalize their "profit" center, we worked across functions, business units, with front line employees, middle and upper management to generate new thinking, processes, systems and actions to innovate and improve customer service. Results included significant increases in employee excitement and motivation as well as customer retention and cross-category product and service utilization.
- Leadership Pipeline Development: Installed a leadership pipeline in an acquired firm with “no leadership” resulting in pipeline members matching or exceeding the leadership standards of the owner company within three years.
- International Project Management: Retrained project managers to become international project managers (following a global merger) creating a change from endemic in-fighting to collaboration, systems and processes integration, and cost reduction.
- Organization Design: Consulted on the design of a local multicultural organization for a foreign entity with the result that it went on to outperform most of its sister organizations in Asia, Europe and North America.
- Organizational Health and Wellness: Co-created an organizational wellness program with a core group of client representatives that dramatically reduced stress, increased peer support, and improved motivation and productivity in top and middle level managers.
