Organizational Effectiveness

Look to DevelopmentWise for tailored organizational development solutions designed to help you achieve your desired results. Each service is customized for maximum effectiveness to meet your needs over time.

Competency & Performance Standards Development: Whether updating a current performance management system or creating a new one, mapping out competencies and standards of performance for employees is a crucial step in the process. Not only are we able to create and revise competencies and standards for you, we can also link them to your training curriculum as well as develop them as part of a leadership program.

Curriculum Design & Development: Building or revamping a training program? Let us map your courses and training topics to specific positions and competencies. For many organizations, this critical piece is often one of the most challenging or overwhelming. Need a customized “soft skills” training course? We can design one that completely meets your needs. Looking to build a leadership development program? We'll work with your organization to assess needs and develop an effective strategy and program for grooming new leaders to take the reins.

Knowledge Transfer Programs: With many of those in the Baby Boomer generation reaching retirement age in the next 5-15 years, some organizations are struggling with how to tackle the issue of critical knowledge walking out the door. Turn to DevelopmentWise for assistance with designing a program to capture that knowledge and make it accessible to your employees.

Mentoring Programs: A great mentoring program can set an organization apart when it comes to recruitment, retention, and succession. If you are looking to launch a sustainable program or update a current one, let us know. We’re happy to help with all aspects of program development and launch, or jump in as needed to assist with specific components.

New Hire Orientation: The first 90 days of a new employee’s work experience are critical for retention. Often, creating an orientation program from scratch can be a daunting prospect. We’ll work with you to develop and launch an effective, sustainable program that will generate excitement in your employees and reinforce their decision to join your organization.

Event Facilitation: Using specific tools and processes, Lisa Downs will facilitate your next focus group, strategic planning, or leadership planning session. Whether crafting a vision, mission, action plan, or organizational values, we’ll ensure that you walk away with a product that generates excitement in your organization for your employees and clients. Need to gauge client satisfaction? We can also conduct client focus groups for you to gather critical information to help your organization meet and exceed your clients' needs and expectations.
