With increasing customer expectations and decreasing
resources being the norm for most businesses, organizations need “short
cuts” – ways to effectively migrate more and more of
their day-to-day operations to automatic pilot in order to navigate
this sea of ever increasing demands. The Institute’s portfolio
of validated diagnostic and assessment tools in combination with
our advanced analytics capability provide leaders and managers with
statistically reliable “short cuts.” The Center for
Research and Development is committed to exploring topics that are
related to organizational culture and increasing our understanding
of how cultural processes actually work.
- Establishing cause-and-effect links between cultural
norms and financial and non-financial performance
- Exploring the relationship between the level of
trust in an organization and its financial and non-financial performance
- Exploring the relationship between an organization’s
ways of working and its financial and non-financial performance
- Understanding the degree to which a high-level of
uniformity in employees’ personality style positively or
negatively affects an organization’s financial and non-financial
performance
- Mapping out the nature and characteristics of cultural
change in organizations, e.g. how it happens, how it’s derailed,
the effect that failed change initiatives have on morale and the
future ability of an organization to change
- Exploring the ways in which data from 360-degree
reviews are actually reflections of the cultural norms (an organization’s “social
mirror”) rather than measurements of individual performance
- Developing a quantitative-analytic approach to identifying
Latent Organizational Weaknesses, with the goal of creating or
strengthening the Safety Culture within an organization
