“I am delighted to welcome Mahmoud and the team at Kayen Co. to the family of consulting firms that using the Effective ManagersTM methodology. They are well-known in Iran for providing valuable services based on research and client-proven success”, said Dwight Mihalicz.
Parisa Razeghi, the organization improvement expert at Kayen Co led the discussions for the collaborative effort. She points out: “Kayen Co. focuses on three main lines of services: Business Strategies, Business Process Management, and Managerial Standards & Excellency Models. The manager effectiveness systems of Effective ManagersTM are a perfect extension to our approach.
The Effective ManagerTM Assessment uses a proprietary survey methodology to engage managers specifically to assess their overall effectiveness, and the key factors that impede or support them in their work. The benchmark shows that managers are, in fact, working at only 55% effectiveness. The results can provide insights to CEOs and Heads of HR on how to align their managerial work force so that strategy execution can be enhanced. Results offer insight prior to a major change initiative in the organization that can help shape a new organizational design, like a merger or acquisition.
CEOs who participate receive a report that details the findings in their organization, grouped together with benchmark results. Each measure is described in detail to ensure an understanding of what the results mean. The report concludes with the high level findings, customized for their organization, together with the areas of greatest strengths and greatest opportunities. If a CEO can understand the relationships between these measures and effectiveness in their organizations, action can be taken that will improve effectiveness.
The agreement also gives Kayen Co. access to The Effective Point of Accountability®. This approach to accountability in organizations can be used to improve delegation of work. It can also be used to improve cross functional work and break down silos. It is a proven and effective method of increasing organizational performance.
