Organizational Street Smarts & Organizational Improvement Model
Organizational Street Smarts
Organizational Street Smarts builds the practical ability to read how work truly gets done—formal and informal power, unwritten rules, and key influencers—and then use that insight to achieve important goals ethically and effectively.
O.S.S. focuses on clarifying goals, mapping sources of power, understanding how the organization operates, and applying targeted stakeholder strategies to build commitment, alliances, and momentum for change.
The Organizational Improvement Model gives leaders a structured “helicopter view” of their organization so they can diagnose what’s driving current results and redesign systems, culture, and strategy to deliver the outcomes stakeholders expect. It integrates assessment and design across vision, culture, strategy, and operating elements (leadership, structure, work, people, technology, decisions, communication, recognition) to plan and implement sustainable performance improvements.
