Organisational development.

Solve your people and culture challenges

Maybe there’s an organisational challenge on the horizon and you don’t have the capability or capacity to handle the transformational change needed. Or maybe you’re wanting to take a strategic approach to people and culture, but are simply too swamped to develop and implement a plan. 

Whether you don’t have the time or resource, or you’re not sure what approach to take, we offer specialist organisational development (OD) support. Our team have decades of OD experience, from both consulting and in-house roles.

Our in-house experience in particular has been pivotal. We’ve not only introduced concepts and designed OD initiatives, we’ve also had to successfully implement them. Additionally, the nature of the roles we’ve held, has developed a level of commercial acumen that can be rare in the OD space.

Organisational development support for Leaders and P & C teams

An organisational development focus is prompted by many things

Change and Evolution

Organisational contexts are constantly changing. Sometimes this is an evolution over time, other times it’s an immediate shift. Change can cause upheaval, uncertainty, and resistance, but it doesn’t have to. Get help bringing people on the journey and setting everyone up for success.

Themes from Team & Leadership Development

Developing your people and teams can highlight organisational issues that are road blocks to success. Get insight and plans that will help shift the roadblocks, to fully realise the capability of your people and teams.

Mergers & Acquisitions

Merging and/or divesting organisations can be challenging for your people and culture. It also presents many opportunities. Set yourself up for success with our support to evolve the culture, retain key talent, and foster positive levels of staff engagement and performance.

Talent & Succession

Look to the future. What talent will you need to be successful and how will you find that talent? We can help you identify your future needs and develop a talent management plan to fill the pipeline. This will likely entail both internal succession planning and externally focused workforce planning.

  • If you’re considering working with Evolutio throw them your real challenge, the issue keeping you up at night, and spend real time discussing and listening. Give them the time and access to understand your business and come up with solutions, and the openness in this approach will deliver the result. If you want to change the dial, not “turn it” talking to Evolutio is worth the time. They are easy to work with, responsive, and bring new initiatives to the table.

  • “Gretchen is very personable. She relates well to people. I have seen those skills in play not only in PGG Wrightson Seeds but also in other organisations. She can relate to a wide range of employees, has a very good understanding of the psychology behind organisational development and can articulate the science to people in a logical way.”

Organisational development process

  • We start with a meeting to discuss your goals and see if we’re the right fit. Our goal is to get a solid understanding of your context, your challenges, and why those things are keeping you awake at night. Success is defined differently for every project, so we’ll discuss your ideal outcomes and measures for success.

  • Next, we help pull together a plan to achieve your goals. Often we design a programme of activities to inform and engage your people, bringing them on a journey to achieve sustainable change. As organisational psychologists, we take an evidence-based approach, recommending activities we know are proven to deliver results.

  • Depending on your needs, we can do the delivery for you; partner with your internal team or; set you up for success with a clear plan for you to deliver.

    Very often our work in this space is a real partnership where we become quasi-members of your team. This allows you to benefit from our experience, providing a new lens to your challenges, balanced with the practical realities of getting initiatives embedded.

Organisational development package

Every organisational development project is different, so we quote on a project basis. 

  • Some projects require an intense defined period of engagement. 

  • Sometimes we’re behind the scenes, mentoring internal team members.

  • Other times we work on a retainer basis and become embedded into your business.
