Case Study Need: A successful school had grown to be one of the nation's premier educational institutions for the treatment of autism. However, over its eleven year history, the school had outgrown its organizational structure and needed to realign its management practices with its mission. Action: Using HR Logistics' OHA, our consultant designed a management retreat to assess the health of the school's management practices. Participation was composed of the Board of Directors, the Executive Team, and the Program Managers. In addition, the management retreat included sessions on good management, breakout sessions for individual group discussion, and educational sessions on leadership development - combined with the results of the OHA and all delivered within one day to the attendees. Results: The School's management team benefited from an increased awareness of the strengths and disciplines of good management and leadership with specific, quantitative measurement of the School's performance in the areas of leadership, workforce development, clarity and transparency, trust, and discipline. Armed with this knowledge, the school could embark on a specific, focused program to improve its management practices and operational efficiency. |
