Many
firms are extremely proficient in providing quick diagnoses of where the
problems lie in a client’s organization and then creating and implementing
turn-key solutions to these identified surface issues with minimal distraction
to their daily operations. This usually results in a short-term “fix”
that ultimately requires the situation to be addressed again in the near
future. The desire to make things better quickly overrides the effort
required to truly identify the root causes of the issue at hand and establish
a long-term plan for sustainable improvement.
Integrated Elements believes that, in order for lasting change to occur and continue long term, the organization’s leadership must take the principal role in diagnosing and ultimately improving the situation at hand. Our strength is providing our clients with the help they need to accomplish this. We are committed towards guiding our clients towards self-sufficiency and helping them to better diagnose and address future problems as they occur. Who knows your people, company and culture better than you do? Who is in the best position to actively manage your organization’s strengths and weaknesses and implement change? We recognize that it is the client who is ultimately accountable for the issues at hand and it is they who are responsible for effectively addressing them. Our approach aims to provide guidance and assistance and strongly depends on and leverages the skills and insights of the client organization’s own talent.
We feel that by developing a trusting and open relationship with our clients and establishing a collaborative approach towards problem assessment/intervention that focuses on the organization’s existing strengths, we can effectively help companies to help themselves.
Our
consulting methodology is a multi-step process divided into two distinct
stages: the “Discovery/Diagnostic” stage and the “Execution/Assessment”
stage. In the “Discovery/Diagnostic” phase, the problem
is thoroughly defined, all relevant data is collected and key issues/root
causes are identified and presented. In the “Execution/Assessment”
phase, intervening actions are planned, executed and assessed for effectiveness.
This data-driven approach provides a structured and easily replicated
process to be used by the client in addressing future issues as they
arise.

During
our engagements, we utilize a broad spectrum of tools ranging from informal
observation to state of the art diagnostic surveys in order to guide
each of our clients through the identification of areas where they have
strengths and opportunities to build upon and develop. As a result,
we are able to focus the company on proactively addressing the key human
capital issues moving forward.
Through thorough analysis, Integrated Elements has identified a model
containing what we believe to be the key drivers of employee engagement.
This model acts as a guide throughout the process to ensure that all
issues and potential areas of concern are consistently analyzed, understood,
and considered. Our employee engagement model focuses on the five primary
areas where engagement exists and can thrive. They are a.) in work design
and alignment, b.) in the organization’s leadership and management,
c.) in areas that focus on employee learning and development, d.) within
the organization’s culture, and finally, e.) within the employee’s
own motivation.
