Building High Performing Organizations

This course is an immersive training and learning experience that covers the skills and competencies that help leaders accelerate change across the organization to increase overall business agility and resilience and build high performing organizations that stay ahead of the competition.

This workshop helps leaders take a holistic and systemic view of their organization and its interconnectedness, dependencies, and complexities. Leaders learn how to assess their organization’s environment, culture, structure, governance, processes, people, capabilities, and capacity for change. They learn to identify gaps and misalignments between their current state and desired future state and how to drive and sustain real organizational change that instils the values, principles, structures, and practices that maximize business agility, innovation, and resilience.

Participants leave this workshop with the knowledge and tools to assess and shape their organization’s culture to match their desired business drivers, map their value streams, optimize their org topology, team structure, and capabilities to match their future organizational needs, understand scaling and de-scaling models, apply systems thinking to navigate complexity, establish metrics to encourage the right behaviors, and lead organizational change initiatives to create a more resilient company that can thrive in a complex, uncertain, and rapidly changing world.

This workshop is part our 3-part leadership development workshop program that includes Building High Performing Organizations, Building High Performing Teams, and Developing Future Leaders, and can be combined with the Leadership Agility 360 assessment and coaching program to help leaders identify their current default style and coach them in developing a path to become more aware and competent in the other styles.
