Optimising Organisational Effectiveness

What is Organisational Effectiveness?
Organisational effectiveness as a concept measures the degree to which an organisation achieves it's goals from Profit through to Service Quality and Productivity, all the way through to Customer Experience.

There are many factors influencing organisational effectiveness such as:

• Organisational structure and design
• Organisational behaviour
• Leadership effectiveness
• Alignment between various business areas
• Business processes, and
• Employee performance

​
The Importance of Organisational Effectiveness: 
By increasing your organisational effectiveness, a business can drive growth through:

• Motivating and engaging employees to greater productivity through such things as training, incentives, work environment, management and tools.
• Improving management by training and equipping them for their job.
• Decreasing costs by refining processes causing waste – such as outdated processes, obsolete technology and ineffective workflows.
• Utilising new tools and technology that may streamline processes and offer a significant competitive advantage.

​To optimise organisational effectiveness an analysis of your business functions needs to be a priority to determine what efficiencies can be gained. Clear achievable objectives and goals can then be set to formulate a strategy that will address your priority areas to help improve your overall organisation effectiveness.
