Assess

Executive Advisory
Step 2: Assess your competencies

Now that you have established your organizational weak-spots and opportunities you need to assess – do you have the right people and competencies to complete the strategy?

Relevant questions:

  • Who of your leaders have to evolve the most to align with the strategy?
  • Who needs assistance as the strategy unfolds?
  • What do successful candidates look like in key positions of the strategy?
  • How do you secure the company’s human capital to reach your goals?

Where Clarify focuses on the organizational level and the conditions of the executive team, Assessment focuses on the individual leader and how his or her competencies match the strategy.

Remember that strategy is difficult to turn into concrete behavior

People are not robots. And even though strategy is often clear on paper it is a whole other ball game turning it into day to day behavior in alignment with the long-term goals.

In fact, it is difficult for most humans to think more than a few steps ahead.  

So, you can absolutely have a brilliant Marketing Director who is leading his team perfectly today, but is the behavior and the results aligned with the company’s reality and strategy in 1, 2 or 5 years?

This is difficult to answer without a detailed assessment of which type of behavior and results match the company’s strategy over time.
