Needs Analysis & Assessments

CMOE’s organizational needs analysis and culture assessment process is designed to help leaders and stakeholders at all levels understand the strengths and pinpoint the opportunities for improvement within their organization. For over 40 years, CMOE has tailored assessments to address the specific purpose and desired outcome identified by our client’s. Rather than performing an “academic” analysis, we design assessments that focus on obtaining substantive feedback and insights from selected segments of the organization. Using this approach we identify trends, ideas, and issues that management can act on to create a positive change. Our goal with each needs analysis and culture assessment is to measure people’s perceptions of reality and each project is designed to help support the leadership of an organization with useful metrics and priorities to focus on in order to optimize performance. Because each organization is different, each needs analysis and assessment and the goals of each project is different. CMOE’s process creates a win-win environment through a collaborative process; leaders and team members come together to make decisions jointly. The assessment process is a tremendously valuable learning tool: managers learn how to interpret results, facilitate problem solving in groups, work with action-planning groups, set organizational priorities, hold team members accountable for their actions, and successfully plan for and implement change.

How Assessments Can Help:

  • Identify gaps in the organization that will affect the execution of your organizations strategy.
  • Discover what steps you need to take to create a high-performance organization.
  • Pinpoint your organizations competitive advantage and ways to leverage it.
  • Discover the root cause of turnover and how to improve engagement, retention, and commitment of employees.
  • Provide clear direction for your talent development and educational curriculum.
  • Identify functions and activities that need organization development interventions.
  • Recognize and identify problem areas and weakness that are inhibiting the creativity, energy, and commitment of your people and your organization’s ability to stay competitive.
  • Enhance your understanding about the beliefs, attitudes, and perceptions that affect your business, giving you new insight about the way your organization functions

When Would an Organizational Needs Analysis and Culture Assessment Benefit My Organization the Most?

  • The organization has gone through a major change, either leadership or structural
  • The organization conducts periodic reviews and checkups
  • The organization will be going or has recently gone through a major re-organization
  • The organization needs to begin moving towards new levels of performance, profitability, quality, and employee engagement because its future success is at stake.
  • The organization’s leadership wants to sustain and preserve the current culture
