aligning organizations.

Whether it is innovative ideas, creative projects, complex changes or organizational shifts, people are at the heart of the change. Without alignment, innovations dies, project stumble, changes backfire and people lose their passion. Alignment is a necessity to release the greatest potential of your organization.

We focus on managing alignment in times of change. Helping your people let go of the old, transition to the future and adopt the new ways of doing things. Most organizations focus on the process and its multiple approaches, we do, too. But we also pay very close attention to how change is induced and how people are aligning to it (or not).

Our clients often struggle with managing alignment in times of change. They find it even more complicated to attract and manage people who can steer the organization, its employees and its thinking in new directions, while aligning with business strategy. We're here to change that.

Our clients often struggle with managing alignment in a time of change and find it even more complicated in attracting and managing people who can steer thinking in innovative directions while remaining aligned to the firm's business strategy.

This starts with helping executive leadership to find meaningful prospectives on issues and growth opportunities.

leadership requires granularity of information to align & manage strategy:

Today's executives are pressed for time to review oceans of information and distill it into insight about a problem or a growth opportunity. Others lack the structure and processes to fully analyze and structure solutions to challenges that are limiting growth.

That's where the potential lies for leadership to accelerate. Commonvision helps organizations support their leadership in gathering and interpreting information visually to help them understand their markets, their rivals, and their internal challenges. This allows executives to create strategic tactics and deploy and allocate resources with focus and direction. This funneled granularity is critical in cost cutting, developing a proactive culture, and in playing offensively in the market.

managing alignment in times of change:

Change can be challenging in all circumstances. To overcome these challenges, we pay very close attention to how change is induced.

We start by assessing the existing levels of agreement and painting a clear picture of what tools should be used, including financial incentives, motivational speeches, training and threats . We then work to fine tune the approach with the tools to create a 'want' and 'how to get there' mentality.

change does not rest on a few people:

The burden of change must be shared. Organizations achieve agility only when every function, strategy, goal, process and person is able and ready to rise to every challenge change presents. This starts by aligning employee actions, promises, intentions, beliefs and values. We work with organizations to help them drive this alignment though highly interactive workshops.

revitalization:

Large organizations often resist change. Revitalization overcomes this. It starts by plugging in creativity and responsibility incrementally and re-socializing so employees take new approaches that allow them to excel. We work with transformation teams, organizations with changed leadership, and companies that have gone thought an abrupt change to help them drive organizational revitalization. We do this by focusing on incorporating employees fully in the process, sharpening, maintaining employee involvement and helping them keep a tight mental focus.

After initial engagement and analysis, Commonvision facilitates and organizes deep coaching session with teams and your company's functional and executive leadership to have these concepts understood and internalized. The period of our engagement can range from three to twenty-four months, depending on the organizations needs.
