Short Description

A financial investment organizational client put out a request for proposal (RFP) for a systems-thinking training. In responding to the request, we proposed an innovative approach to needs analysis through a systems mapping process and training, to meet their goals for organizational performance improvement. In this session, we will share our case study. Join this session, to learn to describe a five-phase needs assessment process and identify the cross-cultural considerations responsible consultants can use in enacting the mapping process across cultures.
