Devich Consulting Group :: Newsletter

The Devich Consulting Group has developed certain principles that we draw upon when working with individuals and organizations. These principles are identified at the end of each newsletter, and relate to the issues addressed for that particular client. The following is a brief sampling:

Consulting Principles
Individuals: Individual performance is limited by the history and culture of an organization. Leaders must understand both aspects of the organization to be effective. Without this insight, individual employees are often blamed for chronic culture problems that hurt the organization.

Managers: Managers need to think and work together, to take risks and be creative about finding new ways to solve old problems. Without this change of style, managers can fall into patterns of avoidance.

Communication: Vertical communication is the most challenging in an organization. Even though senior managers believe in the importance of communication, most are to slow to communicate in a significant way with middle mangers.

Conficts: Conflicts, while partly reflecting the differences between individuals, also reflect deep unresolved issues between departments.
