Organizational effectiveness is defined as an organization’s ability to achieve its goals. Corporate Warrior facilitates goal attainment by doing a comprehensive assessment to see if the following organizational effectiveness characteristics are present:
- Clearly-defined goals
- Structure related to goals
- Constant scanning of the environment and appropriate adaptation
- Consistent, clear procedures that evolve purposefully
- Exercise of power in a manner that recognizes mutual influence
- Flexible, participative decision-making
- Information openness
- Initiative in external relations
- Well-defined concept of social responsibility
- Meaningful, varied work with learning opportunities
- Commitment to personal growth (planned skills development)
- Mutual trust, respect, and support
- Accurate and timely performance feedback
- Just and equitable rewards
Often, companies experience problems when there is an absence of some of these performance-enhancing characteristics that positively impact the corporate bottom line. Corporate Warrior asks the key questions that help to tease out the problems that negatively impact system-wide performance. Once causation of problems is established, a customized organizational effectiveness plan is formulated and implemented to enhance business results.
