OLC's "Bigger Pie" Initiative
Let's stop arguing about who gets the biggest piece of the pie, let's work together to make a bigger pie. Lack of knowledge... that is the problem -W. Edwards Deming
"How do you make a bigger pie?" The purpose of "The Bigger Pie Initiative" is to share OLC's answers to this this question with individuals and groups who seek ways to build a better world for all.
Assessments
Why do an assessment?
The results of assessments provide information on an organization’s strengths and weaknesses, which enables organizational members to work together by capitalizing on their strengths and improving their weaknesses.
The results of an assessment are a resource for an organization to use in developing improvement plans.
Assessments available
OLC has assessments in the following areas:
- Human Effectiveness Skills
- Middle Management Support for Improvement
- Project Management Capabilities
Customized assessments
OLC partners with customers to tailor available assessments to fit the organization’s circumstances. OLC works with a small internal planning group of two or three people to tailor the assessment. This planning effort normally requires less than four hours of support from the members of the planning group.
If needed, OLC can develop a customized assessment to meet organizational needs. Assessments use a combination of survey feedback, documentation review, and structured interviews to obtain results.
