Many researches have shown that organizations are like “Beings” (Balfour, Danny L.). Organizations exist for effectiveness. Effectiveness is measured by the degree of excellence in achieving results that creates business impact. Whether a startup or a traditional business, for sustainability, aligning to the outside business world requires the business organization to make many changes and shifts at several levels internally. Sustainable business organizations are the ones which never take their foot off the accelerator of capability building, and believe it to be a continuum.
Business impact is defined as “any visibly manifested action, effect or influence upon a significant business process or people process of an organization, initiated by a planned intervention, for a developmental shift” (Bhattacharjee, Satyakki & Singh, Namita, 2019). At GrowthSqapes, we believe that every process in an organization, whether core or non-core, can be positively actioned, effected and influenced by OD interventions to enable it to attain the desired efficiency shift.
A company is made by law but organizations are made of people, built by people. Thus, an organization is a reservoir of human emotions, expressed or held back, consciously or unconsciously, that sets the ball of the process of organizational dynamics on a constant roll.
The levels, layers, nature and quality of thinking (read mental processes) either positive or negative – make people either progressive or resistive towards change. This, though not the only one, is a significant factor that determines the health of an organization. We believe OD to be a path to revive organizational health. Moreover, business needs reliable predictors.
Being one of best corporate training companies in India, at GrowthSqapes, the organization development solutions (OD solutions) are directed towards the capability building of your organization with a business impact. We look at capability as an unseen but experiential asset that manifests as an organization’s ability to achieve its business goals, to innovate and redesign its business to align itself to the shifting margins, velocity and scale determined by the dynamism of the business world. As change management consultants our Clinical Consulting (CC) approach means we diagnose the organization not only by taking a surface level view of the organizational aspects but by uncovering what’s beneath. Organizations and its leaders and managers develop a tendency not to look beyond what is Conscious and Visible. Either by ignorance or by wilful avoidance, many significant human processes in the organization are overlooked. We believe most business processes are largely entwined with human processes, be it conscious or unconscious, and by over-looking and avoiding the reality of unconscious processes, a lot of ill-health is silently propagated in the organization. The clinical approach, in a step-by-step empirical manner, identifies the symptoms and the hidden causes that manifest as unwanted events at the surface-process level.
Towards the above GrowthSqapes uses its proprietary organizational analysis tool called VITOHScope. VITOHScope investigates vital organs of the organization like people processes, systems, context and climate, strategic intent, role orientation and accurately reports diagnostic information on key parameters like business process efficiencies, performance orientation, human conflicts and communication status, people capability gaps, leadership quality and focus, cultural dimensions, value orientation, task orientation, technology, structure, and long-term strategy. The VITOHScope Report (VR) maps the organization’s sustainability part from an ‘As-Is-Now’ to a ‘Strategic Destination’. (Click here to know more.)
GrowthSqapes also uses its patented Action-Diagnostic Model©™ (ADM) to help its client system accurately identify the causes beneath the problems within an organization. The ADM is a diagnoscope which is a hybrid of a socio-metric, psychometric and organo-metric tools that analyzes the health of an organization and identifies the possible unseen causal linkages to the symptoms of the organization’s operational problems. Our ADM Diagnoscope is akin to a device that informs about the possible health issues in the organization so that appropriate interventions can be made on time. (Click here to know more.)
Further, to understand and measure organizational culture, GrowthSqapes also uses its proprietary tool, Culture Compass©® (CulComp), which captures both quantitative and qualitative metrics. (Click here to know more.)
