OrganizationalEfficacy

I was blessed to again have opportunity to learn from/with Dr. Lindsey Gunn recently. You can find LG HERE

Every time I get to engage with LG I take away something helpful and provocative in relation to my leadership responsibilities. 

According to LG, we assess the efficacy of our organizations along three dimensions:

  1. Fidelity - Are we, as an organization, doing (or trying to do) what we intended? Note: The assumption here is that we actually know what we intend to do.
  2. Outcomes - Are we getting the results desired from those intentions and actions? If not, why not?
  3. Organizational "Health" - Does our organization provide an environment in which members can pursue its stated goals in self-actualizing and team-actualizing ways? Does it look/feel/smell/interact in safe and healthy ways?
It might even be worth it to have conversations around these metrics with our teams...
