It isn't always easy to make an objective assessment of how collaborative you are. It might be an integral part of your organisational DNA, with established cross-functional forums and an active network of partners and allies, but that doesn't necessarily mean that you're best-in-class. An unbiased external assessment can help you understand your strengths and weaknesses and identify areas for improvement. Chances are, there are at least a handful of simple adjustments that you could make that would have a significant impact on your effectiveness.
Our assessments are typically high-level engagements of just a few days. We take an objective view of your situation looking for key indicators of collaboration such as information exchange, activity alignment and knowledge sharing. We then categorise your maturity on a spectrum from formative (internal collaboration is established but collaboration beyond the organisation is rare) to mature (both internal and external collaboration is sophisticated and professionally coordinated). Finally, we apply our experience and understanding to provide tangible recommendations for improvement, with a particular emphasis on the 'low hanging fruit' that has fast time-to-value.
Of course, we can go much further. We can conduct psychometric reviews to help individuals and teams understand how they can better contribute to collaborative projects. We can measure the value of collaborative networks, identifying those participants that are the biggest contributors and those that are not performing at an optimal level. We can review the tools, processes and technologies that comprise your collaboration platforms and help you understand those that are truly enabling success.
At all times, our focus is providing an objective, unbiased and practical perspective that gives you the insight to make appropriate strategic decisions.
