How We Help
Every organization has a unique situation and unique needs…so everything we do to help our clients is custom-designed. Take a look at several short stories of how we designed and led powerful HOW’s to help some very different kinds of organizations see, plan for and act on their opportunities in new and powerful ways!
What We’ve Learned
For more than two decades, we’ve been searching…studying, piloting and refining breakthrough ways to “crack the code” on complex change to reliably and repeatedly drive improved and sustainable business performance. We believe it is important for you to understand how we arrived at our key insights, to gain an appreciation for why our approach is different, and why that difference matters so much. We truly believe we have gained insights that others have not had, and more importantly, have figured out how to make these insights executable in any organization.
Training and Education
No matter which methods you may be employing to dramatically improve your organization’s performance, the real results that matter likely rest on a large number of people thinking, acting and working together differently…starting with key leaders, and ultimately spreading throughout your organization…and doing so on a sustained basis!
Broad-based behavioral change is the hardest change to affect…80% or more of the issues are “people issues”. But this type of change is THE MOST IMPORTANT change for any organization, because it can drive DRAMATIC improvement in results…and put DISTANCE between your organization and its competitors! Precisely because it is so hard to do well!
The concepts and principles for success ARE NOT rocket science…but they are often mis-understood, poorly practiced. They represent LEARNING that is very hard to turn into DOING. CHA has spent decades proving practical ways to drive broad-based behavioral change with any group of people in any type of organization. We can teach them to you!
Why We're Different
According to Robert H. Schaffer, author of “High Impact Consulting”, almost all the managers who engage consultants, and almost all the consultants they hire, subscribe to a model of consulting that severely LIMITS the benefits of their collaboration!
We’ve all seen plenty of cases where traditional consulting help ended up with the proverbial “three-ring binder on the shelf”. This happens A LOT! It is important to deeply understand WHY it happens, in order to then appreciate why a very different approach is needed.
