A New Organizational Development Tool
Organizational Constellations is one of the most impressive new approaches for facilitating change within an organization.
Organizational change has to come from the top down, and the inside out. The best way to accomplish this is to work it out in a "constellation."
This approach is based on the upon the phenomenological work of Bert Hellinger with family systems.
Although Organizational Constellations is fairly well known in Europe it's just beginning to be introduced in North America.
I believe Organizational Constellations is a major new OD tool that will have a profound impact on how executive teams make major decisions and solve challenging problems.
Organizational Constellations in Action
In Holland Organizational Constellations assisted the executive team of an advertising agency in strategic decision making.
Organizational Constellations helped define and test the organizational strategy and manage change and conflict to implement that strategy.
In Washington DC, the process helped provide new insights and establish priorities for the Board of a nonprofit seeking to institute a new growth strategy.
Both overseas and in the USA I have used Organizational Constellations principles in a variety of organizations and find the results profound.
Organizational Constellations is a remarkable tool for team builders, coaches and other organizational development professionals.
Facilitating Executive Decision Making With Organizational Constellations
Executives and their management teams bear the responsibility for making the big decisions.
The bigger the decision the more that is riding on that decision for the organization, its staff, its client and the careers of the executive team.
Often, the big decisions are challenged by ambiguity, complex relationships, the pressures of limited time and unappealing trade-offs.
Organizational Constellations will line up the right people for the right jobs, the order of important decisions, the next best products to introduce and where, and other big decisions that paralyze a management team.
Organizational Constellations is an extremely effective investment to make when the risks and rewards are significant.
