We help clients build stronger organizations
Strong organizations display a culture of leadership throughout, have resilient structures and processes and demonstrate team thinking at every level. As a result of their strength, they are better prepared to weather crisis when it comes.
We work with organizations in the public, private and non-profit sectors to increase organizational strength, develop enterprise-wide resilience to crisis and improve leadership at all levels.
Our lead consultants have front-line experience as general managers in successful, best-in-class organizations in the private and public sectors. They've built, nurtured and led successful teams to achieve challenging objectives under less than ideal circumstances. They have a broad range of professional experience and have built up an uncommon depth of knowledge about what it takes to successfully lead a winning team. They've also worked closely with organizational leaders from CEO to Deputy Minister to senior executive and line managers -- helping them develop essential skills for success, helping them cultivate effective teamwork and enshrine high performance values unique to their individual circumstances.
Many of our clients are interested in both crisis leadership and organizational strength building services - others are simply interested in building a stronger, better performing, more successful enterprise. Everything we do is customized to the unique needs of our clients. Here are some of the more common service elements that clients request:
Management Consulting We provide a broad range of management consulting services, and our lead consultants include top-ranked Certified Management Consultants (CMC) with experience developing strategic business plans, market strategies, proforma financial projections, strategic analyses, etc.
Organizational Assessment We are routinely asked to come in and assess an entire organization. CEOs and board directors ask us "How could this organization work more effectively? What's missing?" Our consultants, including Certified Management Consultants and Certified Human Resources Professionals, will lead a top to bottom review of the way your organization works, from the people-side out.
Org.Design + Structure Our expert consultants have helped organizations ranging from small non-profits, through to multi-million dollar government agencies with dozens of employees and large profitable corporations with thousands of employees, to review their organizational structures and design/implement new structures and management processes that better fit their strategies and the competitive environmental realities within which they work.
Leadership Assessment We use some of the world's leading psychometric tools to help build a qualitative and quantitative assessment of the skills, attributes and behavioural temperament of leaders and managers within client organizations. Using fully validated, state-of-the art psychometric instruments we can identify the behavioural DNA of successful leaders within your organization and use it to help identify high potential leadership and management candidates and to help them adapt to corporate culture and develop high performance behaviours that fit your team.
Leadership Development + Coaching Our consultants and associates have many years of experience helping managers develop into leaders by uncovering and polishing their latent skills and helping them learn effective leadership behaviours that fit your organizational culture.
Team Assessment We frequently work with teams, helping them to identify their strengths and weaknesses and to address areas where behavioral or performance improvements are desirable. We use best-in-class tools and assessment instruments, where applicable, to help diagnose potential issues and develop/deliver appropriate intervention strategies that work.
Team Design + Building We work with teams at all levels within organizations to help them improve team performance by identifying and selecting appropriate team members for specific roles and helping leaders through the process of building effective team behaviours.
Team Coaching A unique process developed by TCG, we are often engaged by client organizations to act as "team coaches" - a process wherein our consultants develop rapport with all members of a team and help identify issues and facilitate resolution by direct intervention or background coaching as may be appropriate. The process may be hard to explain, but the results speak for themselves.
Managing Major Change Every large project involves major change. Our consultants have extensive experience helping leaders introduce and manage major changes in such a way as to mitigate potential performance issues during the process.
Building Strategic Influence Strong organizations are able to cultivate strategic influence with all of their key stakeholders including managers, employees, board members, investors, customers, vendors, regulators, legislators and community leaders. TCG wrote the book on strategic influence, developing the industry leading Seven Keys to Strategic Influence process. We have helped numerous clients develop/implement effective strategic influence campaigns with tactical elements including media, public, community, investor and government relations programs, marketing and advertising programs, internal communication programs, educational and outreach programs, etc.
