Is your strategy clear and compelling to customers, investors and employees? Your clients expectations are increasing. Clients want a more holistic and tailored answer to their unique issues. For your leadership talent, success is less about specific skills and more about the ability to integrate issues and conceptualize how to do things differently, faster and more accurately. Leaders must be more effective at building and working in constantly changing teams to generate new and creative solutions.
Is all the pressure on a few, key leaders to generate ideas or ensure things get implemented? Do you know the different types of innovation and which one would be most effective to support your business strategy? Do you know how to enhance the innovation capabilities of your teams? Does your culture truly support the type of innovative thinking you need? Based on our clients requests, we offer a unique, validated and proprietary set of assessments that provide the full picture on how to enhance and maximize your innovation potential.

Do your leadership teams work well together and deliver the necessary results? When bringing in new executives, do they take too long to become a key contributor? Do you have the right talent and capabilities to support the growth of your business? Is your organization siloed or slow to respond or adapt to customer expectations? Are leaders clear on what decisions they own and who needs to be involved in the process? Traversa believes your business strategy is implemented through your people. In order to compete you need the right organizational structure, people, team effectiveness and talent management processes. If any of these elements are mis-aligned or faulty you are at best inefficient and at worst vulnerable. You need an aligned and effective team to help provide a competitive advantage.
In order to be most effective: 1. The organization structure must provide clear roles and decision authority as well as facilitate the ability to work effectively between business units and with corporate functions. 2. The people need to have the skills, cultural fit, motivation and capabilities to lead the organization toward your strategic objectives. 3. The Leadership Teams need to work effectively together and be constructive, collaborative and results oriented. 4. The talent management processes need: to ensure a flow of highly qualified talent into the organization; on-boarding strategies that support successful and speedy integration into the organization; continuous development of skills and capabilities; a culture that rewards high performance; and succession plans that support the long-term growth of the business.
Traversa can help you assess the issues and create a practical road map that will better align your organization to operate more effectively. “The CliC Innovation process was highly valuable! It provided insights into my own capabilities as well as how to better lead and encourage my team. I learned how to align the types of innovation with the roles and capabilities to get stronger results. It has positively impacted our team’s innovation potential.� Ron Versteegh VP Implementation Services DS Waters
