Organizational Effectiveness

WJM collaborates with clients to enhance their organizational performance at the team, functional, and enterprise levels by aligning people, processes, structure, and culture. These elements are integrated to support the achievement of business strategy and objectives. We also plan and implement active stakeholder management and communications programs that ensure buy-in and support for all planned changes.

We assist with large-scale change efforts, such as post-merger integrations, restructurings, culture change, and many other challenges. We also work with human resources leaders to address organizational issues and to develop specific human resources programs.

Many of our experienced organizational consultants have managed the Human Resources functions of major global organizations, including organizational effectiveness, and talent development and planning. Each consultant brings process skills and technical content knowledge to bear on the organization's specific issues.

WJM offers a range of consulting services that ensure organizational effectiveness.

Visionary Team Planning
A highly interactive, engaging process in which individual departments, divisions, and whole companies craft:

  • a unified vision of growth over the next 3-5 years
  • an aligned strategy for launching the journey
  • a detailed action plan that insures enrollment and accountability.

Team and Trust Building
Our customized Team and Trust Building consulting services are designed to dramatically deepen the understanding of a particular team's dynamics and to establish a environment of trust. By surfacing "buried" conflicts, the team is able to traverse impasses which regularly inhibit optimal performance and results. The team learns practical tools for functioning better together in the future, including effective meeting management skills. A detailed and practical action plan for improvement is created to ensure that members' commitment to the team does not extinguish once they return to work.

Cross-Cultural Assimilation
Understanding how people from different cultures act and communicate has become a necessary skill in today's global business environment. Our internationally experienced consultants make practical recommendations for establishing credibility, making effective presentations, and persuading and influencing others across cultural boundaries. The values, expectations and beliefs that underlie global business communication models are explored.

Change Management
A highly experienced WJM consultant helps teams within the organizations understand, cope with, take advantage of and plan for change.

Meeting Effectiveness
Utilizing the most current adult learning processes, our consultants help create an atmosphere and dialogue that maximizes the effectiveness of any meeting.

Strategic Planning
Facilitation of traditional annual planning processes, including Trend Analysis, SWOT Analysis, GAP Analysis and Future Search Processes.
