An organizational assessment is a systemic approach for consultants to discover how well their client organizations are performing and where they could improve in order to perform better. They are invaluable to organizations in a number of ways.
Not only can they identify problem areas, but they can serve as the basis for any number of change management initiatives- organizational diversity, operational performance, leadership effectiveness, employee retention efforts, and digital transformation to name a few. Conducting organizational assessments allows internal and external consultants to ground their guidance in data, introduce new insight to their client, and identify areas that will have the most impact in their engagement.
