Organizational Effectiveness Inventory®

Training Workshop – Module Overview

The Organizational Effectiveness Inventory® (OEI)”is part of Innesskirk’s innovative Multi-Level Performance Improvement System. The system is based on extensive research, used by more than 5 million people world-wide and boasts more than 20 years data and history. The system includes multiple organizational behavior analysis tools for individuals, teams and organizations which reinforce and complement each other. The OEI measures the OEI identifies the causal factors (levers for change) that influence culture and the outcomes of culture – specifically within the organization being surveyed. Using both Organizational Culture Inventory® (OCI) and OEI together provides the very best of behavioral, perception and attitude measures available today.

Managing culture is among the most important—and most difficult— challenges facing organizational leaders. Knowing this is one thing, but knowing what to manage, is something very different. The OEI gives the answers senior managers need. The results are presented in a comprehensive feedback report that tells the story of how an organization’s culture really works and can be influenced. Based on members’ responses, it describes how the current culture evolved, where disconnects exists as well as the impact of the current operating culture on outcomes. This is achieved through delivery of online measurement surveys and questionnaires throughout the organization. The resulting analysis is used to plan and implement a culture transformation.

This workshop introduces the tools and language which allow individuals to become aware of current actual behavior which shapes the culture and offers development options to create a more constructive engagement focused culture.

Pre-workshop online measurement surveys, tutorial sessions, case studies, practical exercises, presentations and syndicate work make this a proactive, hands-on course.
