Supported and influenced by decades of experience and current research, an approachable, down to earth solution to your organization’s people, leadership and culture challenges.

Your eye doctor would never give you their glasses with the expectation that you would see clearly; helping you solve organizational challenges are viewed the same way. Cookie cutter approaches are ineffective - taking what worked for one organization and trying to replicate it is likely to fall short of expectations. Each organization is different, and you know it best. IDG approaches organization development consulting as your partner, helping you gain clarity on what you would like to focus on and partners with you to define how to achieve your vision.

Common organization development outcome areas

  • Change management

  • Organizational culture

  • High performing teams

Communication and dialogue is the foundation.

Common approaches include:

Diagnostics and observation

Custom tailored diagnostics to help you define where you want to focus your energy and what matters most for your organization. These include one on one interviews, custom surveys, and focus groups.

Often times, the inquiry and curiosity from an outside expert will introduce new perspectives that haven’t been considered or challenge the framing of the current situation.

Group and team coaching

Working with groups and teams using inquiry to facilitate conversation, and provide a platform for the participants to practice new tools and skills while working through current, real world challenges.

Emotional intelligence assessments

Emotional intelligence has been shown to be a key differentiator when it comes to leadership. These assessments can be administered for all levels within the organization, and be a self-report as well as a 360.
