Create Resilient Organizations

Create Resilient Organizations

High performing organizations know that a clear strategy combined with an aligned culture enables outstanding results. Without a strategy, you experience misdirection and wasted efforts. Without an aligned culture, your strategy is dead on arrival.

Evergreen Leadership combines business savvy with deep expertise on organizational development to facilitate the development of strategy for small to mid-sized for profit and non-profit organizations. We can then help you assess your current culture for fit, describe the culture you want to shape and partner with you to align culture and strategy.

How We Can Work Together

Design & Facilitate Strategic Sessions

Work with us to design strategic sessions that get results. We begin by working with you to define clear objectives and then custom design a session that allows you to achieve them.

Together we’ll prepare your team to come ready to engage and our skilled facilitators will guide the process, enabling you to focus on fully participating, rather than dealing with the mechanics of the day. All our sessions end with clear outcomes and action items and a 30 day follow up to assist you in implementation.

Organizational Assessments

We use a variety of organizational assessments, from structured interviews with your teams to respected online tools. Our work begins by getting clarity on the questions you want answers to, which allows us to recommend the best tool and approach.

Our assessment work always engages your leaders and employees in the process, driving clarity from beginning to end. We share more than results with you, we also share recommendations and action items, and work with you to communicate and engage your teams in implementation.

Partner with Senior Leaders to Shape Your Desired Culture

If you’ve determined that your current culture is ill-equipped to take your organization to where it needs to be, our senior and skilled organizational development professionals will work with you to envision the culture you’d like to create, identify the structural and skill changes required and then to craft and implement a comprehensive plan to shift your culture over time.

Culture work is critical; it is one of the strongest forces that shapes the results your organization gets. It is also complex, and that is why our practice partners, who have deep expertise and are excellent at systems thinking are the perfect partners for this work.

Kris was able to build trust with all levels of our organization. She listened intently to the needs for the project and developed an approach to address the objective. Kris worked with the senior leaders to design and implement a set of activities that would assess the level of employee engagement.
