Structure

ODR assists in establishing the 'best fit' structural framework to suit our client's organisational challenges.  organisational structures define the capability, capacity and accountability mechanisms that enable leaders and teams to navigate their role and achieve their objectives.  Matching accountability with authority and getting the span of control and delegations right has a profound impact on the culture and the way organisational values are expressed in employee behaviour.  It sends strong signals about trust and governance avoiding the poor disciplines and lack of trust that lead to bureaucracy.  ODR provide services in:

Culture

organisational culture includes the networks of social relationships and behavioural patterns of employees such as norms, roles, communication, values, beliefs, habits, ways of doing and perceiving and attitudes.  The profile of an organisation's culture identifies and measures its market strength and development requirements.

ODR offers strategy development appropriate to your cultural requirements including symbolic management, transformational leadership and true empowerment to release and enable staff capability. Our services include;
