Organizational Problem-Solving

Effective organizational problem-solving requires multilingual abilities, meaning the ability to communicate with top executives and then to translate this information to employees meaningfully and with a convincing emotional connection.

Organizational problem-solving requires wading right into the middle of the organization, becoming an active foot soldier in the ground war of organizational change. Many organizations try to rely solely on an "air war" — employee meetings, distributing printed newsletters, memos, and missives, videotaped explanations and other conceptual abstractions.

The net result... the employees DON'T GET IT!

If an employee can't describe the organizational change and what it means in terms of changes in roles and how s/he gets the job done, then real organizational change is not occurring!

Strategic Futures® organizational problem-solving services are led by our managing director, Ron Gunn. Ron is an expert in creative and practical solutions that create REAL change. He knows how to distill organizational goals into granular, operational terms that employees understand.

Mr. Gunn has written a number of interesting and informative articles which are posted right here on our site. The Strategic Futures® Library contains a complete listing of article topics along with links to the corresponding articles.

Also, available for purchase are booklets from our popular Strategic Futures® Matrix Management Booklet Series. We have developed these booklets for distribution to your managers and staff to help "defog" the matrix, thus reducing the time and discomfort associated with implementing and improving your matrix organization.

Each booklet is a valuable time-saver defining what a matrix management organization is, how it functions, and roles and relationships. Please contact us for information on volume discounts.
