Organisations Designed to Succeed

An organisation is a set of agreements made by people to work together in a certain way to achieve a desired result. These agreements are the structure and can be built or changed.

“The result benefited each individual and consequently the organization. We were all surprised and delighted by this. In three hours and with 30 people we accomplished an extraordinary result – aligning our personal values with our professional behaviours, our mission and our vision for the future.”
Joanne Kelly Artistic Director PASNZ

“Your consultation work along with the associated outputs have been very helpful in bringing     us clarity around what we want.”
Helen Anderson Director Academic Manukau Institute of Technology

The most effective place to start is with the question:

What do we want?

To answer the question, “What do we want?” you need to visualise something that does not yet exist. To do this you first imagine it and then build what you imagined. In this way you design your organisation to succeed.

Projects big or small start in the same way. Everything that humans create starts this way, roads, bridges, houses, businesses or organisations – first as something imagined.

Great clarity is achieved from looking at a project in this way. The clarity enables action steps and plans to be developed. And the orientation towards the desired end result ensures that each action is moving the project or organisation in that direction.

I call this ‘ the creative orientation’ and it simplifies even the most complex vision, and the relationships between all the parts.
