Organizational Effectiveness Consulting

The analysis was brilliant. The recommendations sound. Yet nothing changed. In our final part, we explore how consultants navigate the human dimension which is where the real barriers are. Parts 1 & 2 explored creating clarity and driving change. This third dimension builds trust across the organization. The final three functions: 1. The Relationship Bridge → Connecting stakeholders around shared objectives →  Facilitating cross-functional understanding → Navigating politics to enable decisions The truth is, organizations are complex human systems with competing agendas and perspectives. Average consultants rely on data alone. Elite ones recognize that change is fundamentally human. They bring people together by: → Facilitating stakeholder alignment forums → Bridging technical and business perspectives → Addressing unspoken barriers to progress → Building coalitions that sustain momentum The best consultants know that the executive, middle manager, and frontline employee all see different realities. Rather than picking sides, they build bridges of understanding between these worlds. 2. The Context Translator → Adapting best practices to local realities → Translating frameworks into specific solutions → Accounting for culture and structure Average consultants apply off-the-shelf frameworks, but generic solutions fail at adapting to the context and ground realities. Exceptional consultants don't just recommend what worked elsewhere, they adapt successful patterns to fit your unique context. They achieve this through: → Identifying which principles transfer across contexts → Adapting to organizational culture and capabilities → Knowing when to challenge vs. accept constraints → Balancing aspiration with practicality The difference between good and great consulting lies here: transforming general insights into your organization's distinct advantage. 3. The Integrity Anchor → Maintaining unwavering commitment to facts → Delivering truth regardless of consequences → Protecting confidentiality & ensuring ethical conduct In environments with competing agendas, the consultant must be the voice of integrity, the truth teller and confidant. Without this foundation, no amount of analytical brilliance or execution skill matters. This manifests in: → Speaking truth to power when others won't → Presenting data accurately, even when uncomfortable → Navigating politics while maintaining independence → Balancing candor with respect Average consultants tell you what you want to hear. Elite consultants tell you what you need to know, even when it's uncomfortable. We covered three dimensions in this series. They all build upon each other: → Clarity without change: useless insights → Change without trust: superficial compliance → Trust without clarity and change: a comfortable relationship The deepest value of consulting isn't transactional advice; it's enabling enduring self-reliance.

Are you measuring what matters in your organization? A comprehensive measure of organizational effectiveness includes much more than profit margins and growth rates. The market and media often celebrate companies that show rapid financial growth or high profitability, leading to a cultural bias towards these metrics as signs of success BUT the tide is slowly turning- more businesses are recognizing the long-term value of a holistic approach to effectiveness and success. Many more businesses are embracing the concept of the "Triple Bottom Line," which measures success not just by financial profit ("Profit"), but also by the company's impact on people ("People") and the planet ("Planet"). HOWEVER 🚨 There is more work to be done! The prioritization of non-financial elements of organizational success can get pushed aside when financial pressures hit or quick results are valued. You have probably heard the phrase "What gets measured gets managed". This is generally true. Quantifying and measuring non-financial aspects of effectiveness, such as employee well-being, social impact, and workplace culture, is hugely important but remains challenging. 💡 Here's some straightforward steps to move you towards a more holistic approach to measuring success: 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐠𝐨𝐚𝐥𝐬: Define what holistic success means for your organization. This could include specific targets related to employee well-being, social impact, and environmental sustainability. 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬: Talk to employees, customers, and community members to understand what aspects of your business matter most to them. Their insights can help shape your holistic success framework. 𝐂𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐬: Based on your goals and stakeholder feedback, pick metrics that are meaningful and manageable. For example, employee satisfaction can be measured through regular surveys, while environmental impact can be tracked through energy consumption or waste reduction metrics. 𝐔𝐬𝐞 𝐞𝐱𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐫𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐬: Look into established frameworks (like GRI or B Corp standards for sustainability; Gallups Q12 Engagement Survey for employee engagement or the Denison Organizational Culture Model to measure workplace culture). There are existing frameworks for most known elements of organizational effectiveness so it's just a matter of looking into them. 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐝𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧-𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠: Ensure that these holistic metrics are part of regular business reviews and decision-making processes, not just side projects. 𝐑𝐞𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐥𝐲: Share your progress openly, including both successes and areas for improvement. Transparency builds trust and credibility. 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐮𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠: Be prepared to adapt and refine your approach as you learn what works and what doesn't. This is a journey, not a one-time task. #organizationaleffectiveness #measurewhatmatters #leaders

This month, we finished a 9-month #OrganisationalCulture consulting project with a German client using Systemic #TransactionAnalysis (TA) thinking 🌐. It was a humbling experience, and I am chuffed to share my insights from this enriching journey, thanks to my fellow lead-consultants and our supportive cohort of 15 accomplished professionals. 🤝 As an OD consultant, I have done a fair share of organisational consulting work, but this learning approach guided by Rosemary Napper & Thorsten Geck at TAworks involved deeper nuances of observing the #organisationsystem as TA #CulturalAnthropologists. Curious about this approach? let's connect! 😊 This learning project provided me with the provocative opportunity to pause and reflect on: ❇️ Who am I as a consultant? & ❇️ What make me lead the way I do? A reflective practice encouraged in TA and one I would highly recommend to practitioners looking to enhance their professional practice. Here are the 6 🗝️ lessons I carry forward from this project: 1️⃣ Presence over Perfection: ✅ This project's emergent structure challenged my reliance on preparation. Reflecting on those intense client engagements, I recognise that learning opportunities arose when I failed to account for myself before responding, it wasn’t so much about a data point or the perfect language as it was about my objective presence. 2️⃣ There is no such thing as too much contracting: ✅ Effective contracting and recontracting are crucial to avoid time-consuming management of mismatched expectations. TA highlights the importance of 3 contracting levels—Administrative, Professional, and Psychological—to address interpersonal dynamics and clarify expectations beyond the surface. 3️⃣ Invest time in creating a Steering-Committee that represents the whole organisation: ✅ Culture runs in the DNA of an organisation, and to understand or change it, the workgroup has to be a representative of the entire organisation, beyond the founders or top executives. 4️⃣ Observation over Diagnosis: ✅ For an effective Org. Culture study, the job is to be curious 🥇. Observing the system involves considering one's somatic responses and intuition before proceeding to the objective distillation stage. Engaging human felt sense can make a learning conversations richer. 5️⃣ Systems can overpower our Objectivity: ✅ The role of the consultant is to be on the edge and aware of the influence the system they are observing can have on their interpretations and actions. Yes, the system is strong and can overpower one's frame of reference. 6️⃣ Self-work supplements Potency: ✅ To be effective and ethical as behavioral science practitioners; #coaches, #facilitator & #ODconsultants, it's crucial to invest in skill-building, supervision, and therapy. Collaborating with other professionals who share similar ethical principles is also vital in organisational work. Grateful for some remarkable ones I have been fortunate to find in this journey. 🙏

𝐅𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐁𝐮𝐬𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐄𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞: 𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐂𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐭 Most organisations are not struggling because people are lazy or disengaged. They are struggling because 𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐲𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐧 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬. Calendars are full. Meetings overlap. Emails never end. Teams are “on” all day. And yet, very little feels truly finished. What I see repeatedly in organisations is this quiet exhaustion. Not from lack of motivation, but from constant motion without meaning. People are doing more, but creating less. Here’s where the shift needs to happen. Impact does not come from activity. It comes from 𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲. When roles are unclear, meetings multiply. When ownership is vague, follow ups explode. When success is measured by hours worked instead of outcomes delivered, people stay busy just to stay visible. The most effective teams I’ve worked with do a few things differently. They prune meetings ruthlessly and ask one hard question before every invite. What decision or outcome will exist because of this conversation? They redefine roles so people stop stepping on each other’s work or waiting endlessly for approvals. They measure effectiveness, not effort. What moved forward today? What decision became easier? What problem actually closed? And something interesting happens when this shift takes place. Energy returns. Focus sharpens. People stop performing productivity and start producing value. This is not about working less for the sake of it. It is about working 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐥𝐲. Because teams today are not unmotivated. They are overloaded, under prioritised, and rarely given space to do deep, meaningful work. The future of high performance is not about squeezing more hours out of people. It is about designing work that respects attention, rewards thinking, and values outcomes over optics. Busy feels impressive. Effective changes everything. And that is the real leadership shift organisations need right now. #WorkplaceEffectiveness #LeadershipClarity #FutureOfWork #OrganisationalDesign #SustainablePerformance #PreetiMalik

Most people think consultants are paid to write clever reports. I used to think that too. And to be honest, in some cases it’s not far from the truth. When I was a CFO in the NHS, we worked with many of the well-known consulting firms. Significant sums of money were spent producing detailed reports on efficiency opportunities. The report would land. It would often confirm things we already suspected. And sometimes, if I’m being honest, the value of the report was partly about signalling upwards: “We’ve reviewed this with X consultancy and these are the efficiencies identified.” But then the real challenge started. Because identifying savings is the easy part. The hard part is three things: • turning ideas into practical actions • finding the bandwidth inside the organisation to deliver them • proving the savings actually happened That’s where many projects struggled. The recommendation might be: “If you were as efficient as system X, you could save £20m.” True perhaps. But the “how” was often much harder to translate into reality. Now I sit on the other side of the table as a consultant, and the biggest difference in the work I do is this: It doesn’t stop at the report. At ERA, the people leading projects aren’t generalist consultants. If we review waste, it’s led by a chartered waste specialist who has spent a career in that industry. If it’s fuel, water, packaging, insurance or merchant cards — it’s someone who negotiates in that market every day. Three things then happen: 1️⃣ The opportunity is identified 2️⃣ The change is implemented 3️⃣ The spend is audited quarter after quarter to make sure the savings actually stick That last part matters more than most people realise. Because costs have a habit of creeping back in. Suppliers change pricing. Usage patterns drift. Contracts quietly roll over. Without ongoing monitoring, savings can disappear surprisingly quickly. Having sat on both sides of the table, the biggest misconception about consulting is simple: Consulting isn’t about the report. It’s about what actually changes after it. And whether the savings are still there a year later. #LinkedInNewsUK

🚧 Org Transformation: The Blueprint Is Just the Beginning. Implementation Is Everything. We often celebrate the completion of an organizational design project—the new structure, the shiny org charts, and the glossy presentations. But the truth? 💥 Implementation is where the magic happens. A few years ago, I along with my team meticulously crafted a new operating model for one of our business line. We analyzed data, consulted stakeholders, and designed what we believed was the perfect model. The leadership approved it, and we celebrated. But months later, the anticipated improvements hadn't materialized. Morale was low, confusion was rampant, and performance metrics stagnated. What went wrong? We realized that while we had focused intensely on design, we had underestimated the power of implementation. 📊 Research shows: • Less than 25% of organizational redesigns succeed. The majority fail during the implementation phase, with 44% losing momentum midstream. (McKinsey) • 90% of organizations fail to execute their strategies successfully, often due to insufficient implementation planning. (Intellibridge) • With strong change management practices, organizations reduce project failure rates by 28% due to higher adoption. (Celoxis) These numbers are a wake-up call: Design sets the direction, but implementation determines the destination. Key Implementation Steps for Success: 1. Role Efficacy Labs 🛠️ The first step is to test and refine the efficacy of new roles. Role Efficacy Labs allow you to engage with employees, providing them with tools to assess how their new roles align with the strategy. This fosters role clarity and boosts confidence 2. Process Consultation Labs 🔄 A robust design is only successful if processes are aligned with the structure. Use Process Consultation Labs to work with teams, dive deep into workflows, and identify potential friction points. It’s not just about the structure—it's about how the structure works in practice. 3. Townhalls and Leadership Communication 🗣️ Townhalls and leadership communication help explain the why and how of the new design. Involve key leaders to reinforce the vision, answer questions, and foster transparency across all levels. 4. Org Network Analysis (ONA) to Identify Change Champions 🔍 Crucial for understanding how information and influence flow within your organization. Identify change champions—influencers within teams who can drive adoption, mentor others, and address resistance before it becomes a barrier. 5. Continuous Feedback Loops 🔄 Implementation is not a one-time event—it’s an ongoing process. Monitor performance, gather feedback, and iterate the plan to ensure it aligns with your evolving needs. In the end, a brilliant org design without a strategic implementation is like a race car with no fuel—fast but not functional. 💡 Effective execution is the true differentiator. It’s about role clarity, process optimization, communication, and ongoing adaptability

Efficiency without capacity crushes productivity After 20+ years transforming enterprises at Reuters, UBS, AIG, HSBC and Ardoq, I've identified a pattern that explains why so many "improvement" initiatives backfire. The core principle: Efficiency without capacity crushes productivity. You cannot optimize what lacks the capacity to absorb variation. Yet that's exactly what we've been doing for 40 years. When you measure call handling time before ensuring staff can handle complex queries, you create rigidity. When you standardize processes before building capacity to manage exceptions, you destroy resilience. When you automate before understanding what variety the system needs to absorb, you concentrate complexity while removing the human capacity to respond. We've confused efficiency (doing things right - hitting targets, following processes) with productivity (doing the right thing - creating value, maintaining capacity). The evidence is stark: UK service sector productivity growth dropped from 1.67% to 1.14% annually after widespread adoption of measurement regimes like Six Sigma, KPIs, and Balanced Scorecards in the 1980s. The sequencing matters: Build capacity first, then optimize efficiency. Never the other way round. I'm developing practical frameworks using Stafford Beer's Viable System Model that assess organizational capacity before imposing performance measures, so improvement actually improves things. What have you seen in your organizations? Does this pattern resonate? #SystemsThinking #OrganizationalEffectiveness #Cybernetics #EnterpriseArchitecture #Productivity

To effectively help their clients, strategy and implementation consultants need to leverage four drivers at the same time: Content, Process, Mindset and Behavior. Master these skills and you will be amongst the best in the world. The classical strategy consultant focuses primarily on the content-aspect of consulting. They do extensive analysis and based on that analysis, they give advice. While this model has been a great source of revenues, it is not enough for real change and effective strategy implementation. To truly achieve organizational change, a strategy and implementation consultant needs to address key drivers. We can organize them along two dimensions: explicit vs. tacit and cognition vs. action. The explicit part of consulting is what we see. It concerns the mechanics of strategy and the steps it takes to develop and implement it. The tacit part is what is under the surface; what happens in people’s mind and what is needed to change their day-to-day behavior. The cognitive part of consulting concerns the mental aspect; what happens in our minds and how we think. The action part concerns what we do; the processes and behaviors required. Based on these two dimensions, these are the four drivers of strategy and implementation consulting: CONTENT The strategy itself, as well as the roadmap and action plans that follow from it. This driver focuses on what the organization should look like in the future (point B), where it stands now (point A) and how to bridge the gap between A and B. PROCESS The steps, actions and tools used to develop and implement strategy. To define points A and B and the actions to bridge the gap between them, you take certain steps and actions and use certain tools to execute them. MINDSET What happens in people’s minds; their values and beliefs; at the top and across the organization. Without the right mindset or shift therein, strategy and implementation will remain unsuccessful. BEHAVIOR In the end, it is people’s behaviors, habits and routines that need to change. Not addressing these will not bring the success you want. Therefore, also behavioral change requires dedicated attention. Unfortunately, there are not many places where you can develop all four skills. It is for this very reason that Timothy Tiryaki and I have developed the Certified Strategy & Implementation Consultant (CSIC) program. It is carefully designed around the four drivers so that you develop all the skills required to be an effective consultant. Our next cohort starts on February 7th and there are still a few spots left. If you have at least 10 years of experience, 5 of which in a facilitating, coaching or managing role, and aspire to enhance your strategy and implementation skills, this program may be for you.

Struggling with Toxic Work Culture, High Turnover, and Missed Goals? It's time to Consider Organizational Development (OD). Organizational Development (OD) is a structured process aimed at improving an organization’s effectiveness and health. Rooted in behavioral science, it focuses on enhancing processes, structures, and human behavior through planned interventions. OD aims to help organizations grow, adapt, and achieve their goals by promoting collaboration, improving communication, and aligning employees with company values. OD is people centered, it prioritizes positive workplace values and healthy behaviours to create a productive organizational climate. It is data driven, using information to identify problems and opportunities for improvement. The process is guided by change agents, who act as facilitators or coaches, helping teams implement and sustain changes. It also includes follow up processes to ensure the long term success of the improvements. These interventions are not short term fixes but are designed for sustained growth and functionality. OD helps organizations align goals with employee performance, improve adaptability, and foster a positive culture. By promoting collaboration and communication, it ensures sustainable improvements, boosts employee engagement, and creates a flexible, high-performing workplace.

💡 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐭 In a world defined by complexity and constant change, sustainable success doesn't come from working harder, it comes from designing smarter.

This philosophy inspired our shift over the last few years, from fragmented operations to an integrated and insight-driven organization. We began designing every layer of our workplace experience to reduce friction and empower ownership. We asked: 𝘏𝘰𝘸 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘴𝘺𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘮𝘴 𝘴𝘶𝘱𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦; 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘸𝘢𝘺 𝘢𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥?

It was about enabling decisions to happen with clarity, timeliness, and foresight. And it was made possible because of the design work that happened behind the scenes, the collective commitment of cross-functional teams. We also redesigned our payroll processing to bring it below 24 hours—an outcome not just of tools, but of 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐦 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐬𝐭, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐞𝐝 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬.
