Why are some organizations successful over the long term while others, after promising beginnings, experience difficulties or even failure?

Based on a combination of research and practical experience, Dr. Yvonne Randle, Vice President of Management Systems Consulting Corporation, will provide a conceptual framework or “lens” which explains what must be done to build organizations, which have a high probability of continuing to be successful over the long-term. She will also help participants understand how to use this lens in understanding what they can do to improve their organization’s effectiveness.

She will identify:

  • The six key “strategic building blocks” of successful organizations.
  • The types of transitions that organizations face as they grow and change.
  • The typical “growing pains” which result when these transitions have not been executed appropriately.
  • Suggested action steps that can be taken by an organization to improve its chances of successful long-term growth.

As a part of this program, participants will complete two surveys:

  • Growing Pains Survey©: Measures the extent to which a company is dealing with ten common growing pains – identified by Management Systems as important indicators of organizational performance.
    Participants will receive a report summarizing the overall extent to which growing pains are being experienced within their company, along with a rating/ranking of the severity of each growing pain included in the survey.
  • The Organizational Effectiveness Survey©: Assesses the extent to which a company has developed the systems, processes, structures, etc. needed to support its current and anticipated operations. Participants will receive a report summarizing “where their company is” with respect to its development.

A series of workshops throughout the two day program will help participants apply what they are learning to their companies in “real time.” A key deliverable of the program will be the identification of specific opportunities to improve short- and long-term success and specific action plans for maximizing these opportunities. This output can be used as input to developing the company’s strategic plan.
