Management Audit:
Are you sure you know your own executives? Do you even have the right executives? Are those who are the best in relative terms also the best in absolute terms? Which skills will actually be needed in your industry in the future? Is it you who are driving the development of your company or the market?
Management Audit is an efficient tool for analysing the potential of executives within their own company environment. The goal is to focus management resources on the company’s vision and strategy. The audit includes a systematic analysis and assessment of a company’s management structure and management quality using structured individual interviews.
We have developed modules for management audits that have been tried and tested throughout the world but which can be adapted to meet the specific needs of the individual client. This allows objective, cross-border comparisons to be made while still taking into account local or regional differences.
Key People Review:
If you are taking up a position as a CEO or general manager you might be asking yourself the following questions, especially if you are an outsider: Who supports my strategy? Who can I rely on? Whose loyalty has to be won immediately? Who is an obstacle to the company’s further development?
Key People Review is a tool for the “first 100 days” of company management that has been specifically designed to help make fast, direct decisions during management changes, pre- and post-merger phases, restructuring processes and takeovers. It covers the top decision-makers within the company, draws up a SWOT analysis of key personnel and provides a basis for developing short-term personnel change processes.
Onboarding:
When recruiting key personnel considerable time and resources are often invested in finding the suitable candidate. However, in the first few months after joining the company, candidates often find they have been left to their own devices and struggle to familiarise themselves with a complex organisation. How can you ensure that newly recruited executives are successfully integrated?
Onboarding is the term used to describe the appointment and integration, i.e. taking on board, of new employees and the range of measures that can be put in place to facilitate this integration. It is the first impression of a company and its culture that determines the motivation, commitment and degree of initiative that a new employee will show and these factors have a significant impact on their productivity. The trust-based relationship we build up with candidates during the recruitment process means we are ideally placed to assist with their optimal integration into the company. Support measures for onboarding are more than just a methodical approach, they require concepts that have been custom-tailored to the individual company. We also compile a report documenting the results of this process so that integration issues can be handled wisely in the future.
