Organizational Development — Performance Improvement
Let the Droste Group Assist you in Delivering the Performance
Critical to Everything You Do!
All performance within a company can be reduced to an action and an outcome (i.e., the result of that action). Each can be measured and has a business/financial impact. 100% of all the various actions that all company employees and leaders complete each day fall within Organizational Development’s area of influence (aka Performance Consulting, Organization al Effectiveness, etc.) — the purpose of which is to continually improve those actions/outcomes, resulting in improved performance and business / financial metrics.

Practical Process
Organizational Development is the well-defined practice of:
- Measuring the current performance.
- Comparing it to the best that can be done (i.e., benchmarking).
- Identifying the performance gap.
- Identifying the possible cause(s) of that gap.
- Identifying the possible performance solutions (called ‘interventions’ within the OD practice) that will address those causes.
- Implementing the performance solutions.
- Re-measuring the performance—to make sure the performance is improved, the gap is closed, and the solutions were the correct ones!
Extensive Impact
An example of the huge impact of organizational development is as follows. Just one generation or so ago the Big Three automotive producers controlled the US auto market. When approached to implement organizational development processes, they initially declined. In contrast, these processes were immediately implemented by their foreign counterparts. Within a generation, due to its implementation by foreign competition, the Big Three had just a small lead in only one of the auto industry segments—light trucks. One of the Big Three was foreign owned, one threatened bankruptcy, and one announced layoffs and plant closings.
