Wilday Scott's Organizational Effectiveness Practice partners with Clients to: Communicate the reasons you're in business, with the people you're counting on to make your company or organization successful. Experience has shown us that many companies do little to assure that their employees understand their business strategy.  Fewer yet assist employees to translate that strategy into day-to-day, operational objectives.  Wilday Scott's Organizational Effectiveness Practice helps you assure that management and employees buy into your business strategy and corporate objectives.  We help you build a culture that identifies and abandons time-wasting rituals, and focuses resources on customer satisfaction and profitability. Increase the readiness of internal candidates for leadership opportunities. As organizations grow, they depend on their incumbent staff to promote into higher level technical, management and leadership positions.  However, the very people you are depending on may lack the requisite people management and project management skills required for success in a leadership role.  Wilday Scott can help you design and implement a leadership development and succession plan to assure that you will have a ready pool of competent professionals and leaders to draw upon as you grow. Provide Employee Relations Coaching to assure employee performance problems are managed, improved and eliminated. You want your employees to continually increase their value to your organization.  Marginal or poor performers are a liability.  Employees that were once performing well and adding value can sometimes slide into not meeting expectations.  In some cases your organization simply outgrows the employee's talents and capabilities.  Wilday Scott assists managers to maximize flexibility in deploying the workforce, while at the same time minimizing legal risk associated with managing performance through corrective action and disciplinary action.  Using clear and direct processes for progressive coaching and corrective and disciplinary action, we help you to assure your employees take responsibility for either improving performance deficiencies or exiting your organization, thereby creating opportunities for individuals who are ready, willing and able to do the work. Align training and staff development initiatives with strategic business plans. Ours is an uncomplicated approach to identifying the specific core competencies indicated for your particular organization's success.  Coupled with our scientific method for assessing technical and leadership skill, we're able to quickly deliver and implement a training plan that is certain to maximize the contribution of management and line staff in achieving financial targets, and meeting business goals and objectives.  Wilday Scott eliminates the guesswork in identifying developmental needs, thereby assuring your training dollars are invested only in efforts that improve client satisfaction and profitability.  And we use HR Metrics to benchmark and demonstrate bottom-line results. Integrate divergent corporate cultures and processes in conjunction with organizational transformation, re-engineering, mergers, acquisitions and site consolidations. Periods of rapid corporate growth, expansion and change can cause stress in the workplace.  This stress may surface as uncertainty among your staff, or even as active resistance, including work slowdowns, loss of productivity, and sometimes sabotage.  Most companies do not accurately anticipate employee resistance to the inevitable changes resulting from mergers, acquisitions, or even from the organizational transformation required of a successful, growing company.  Your window of opportunity for assuring successful integration of work groups and processes during such an event is small indeed.  Use Wilday Scott's Change Management Architecture to influence rapid integration of change and, or assimilation of contrasting corporate cultures. Map and re-engineer critical Human Resources work processes. Wilday Scott is a particularly effective partner for companies experiencing rapid growth and expansion.  We work with you and your staff to develop and codify successful Human Resources processes and practices.  Codified processes can then be easily exported to other work groups, newly acquired divisions, and subsidiaries in order to assure uniformity, continuity and quality across your company.  We are equally effective in re-engineering and revitalizing outdated and outmoded processes to eliminate unnecessary and unprofitable steps, or integrate new technologies.
