Advisory Services
Organization Development Consulting
Our Organization Development Consulting is focused on improving our client’s capacity to handle growth and change. This work includes improving interpersonal and group processes, improving effective communication, and enhancing the organization’s ability to cope with organizational challenges of all kinds. We primarily work with clients on foundational elements of trust, conflict, communication, accountability, goal setting, leadership in order to prepare leaders and cultures for inevitable change or growth. By building this strong foundation, focused on performance through people, our clients are better prepared to innovate and manage through change and uncertainty.
Design Thinking Workshops
Switch Innovation Lab’s design thinking workshops immerse participants immediately in the process of innovation and problem solving in engaging and creative ways. This includes:
- Learning by doing. Scientific studies have consistently shown that experiential learning significantly increases the absorption, retention, and application of information
- Real-time collaboration
- Accepting failure as part of the path towards a successful outcome
- Embracing a growth mindset
- Overcoming the paralysis of a blank canvas
- Moving forward from static thinking
- Embracing curiosity and positivity as a means to solve problems
- Creating an immediate “win” for the participants that can be applied in further meaningful and tactical ways.
Mission, Vision, Values Development
The development of an organization’s Mission, Vision, and Values provides the strategic foundation for the organization to build from. These central elements provide stakeholders with the necessary direction to understand the organization’s purpose, direction, and acceptable behaviors. We utilize the Design Thinking methodology to help our clients move through a human-centered approach to developing their MVV. This approach ensures the output is both grounded and inspirational.
Executive Coaching
A Metrix Global study found that Executive Coaching has a 788% return on investment (ROI) based on factors including increases in productivity and employee retention. Coaching is a proven way to develop individual, team, and organizational performance across industries. It also provides a strong support system for our clients who are engaged in Organizational and Leadership Development, DEIB, Innovation and MVV work.
We had the pleasure of working with Switch on several projects, including reconceptualizing and writing our mission and vision statements, as well as leading focus groups comprised of conference attendees. Kathy and Joe are real pros and each brought their unique talents to the table on both assignments. They worked directly with our executive team as well as customers in a professional, collaborative and trusting manner, drawing out and synthesizing the key insights needed. Their efforts are having a strong and sustainable impact on our organization.
At Switch we are agents of change, tapping into the hope, positivity, and resilience we each have inside of us.
