How We Help
WHAT IS "ORGANIZATIONAL DEVELOPMENT" ?
OD, or Organizational Development, focuses on enabling individual, team and organizational success through a process of transformation and change. This is done in a pro-active, integrated and strategic manner.
At Elevate, we work collaboratively with our clients to assess their current state, and then plan and custom design the programs and interventions that will lead to positive change.
With extensive experience in working with employees and leaders on all levels, and consulting with clients in the Maritime, Retail, Manufacturing, Logistics, Information Technology, International Sourcing, Wine & Hospitality, Property Management and Corporate sectors, we bring an appreciation for and an understanding of these dynamic environments to our relationships with and services we offer to our clients.”
Our clients include the individual, teams and organizations.
INDIVIDUALS
We offer personal, leadership and executive coaching to individuals who want to grow and develop. Becoming aware of one’s own natural strengths and talents helps each person tap into their own intrinsic motivations and fears. According to Neuroscience, that which we find naturally interesting and rewarding (our intrinsic motivators) activates the brain’s reward and pleasure centers and creates a basis from which to coach optimally and to assist with behavior change.
TEAMS
Utilising a variety of profiling tools, we are able to create self and social awareness between team members, highlighting individual as well as team strengths, weaknesses, differences and similarities, and therefore assisting with the process of creating a high-performance team. We also assist teams by offering management and leadership development programs, soft skills training, conflict resolution, team coaching, team role & process clarification and team strategy setting sessions.
ORGANIZATIONS
Through our expertise in the application of an integrated and holistic organizational development approach, we partner with executives and senior leadership in order to optimise their effectiveness in business. From measuring and defining company culture and engagement, to organizational design, leadership development, executive coaching and change management, we follow an inclusive, co-design model that addresses each organization’s unique needs.

SUPPORTING ORGANISATIONS - ELEVATE
Solutions
ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE AND ENGAGEMENT
An organization’s culture defines “the way we do things around here”. It is the common denominator among the most successful companies. Leaders in successful companies live their cultures every day. They make a point of communicating to existing employees and new hires, what the company’s cultural identity is all about.
A great organizational culture is one of the key factors for having a happy and engaged workforce.
LEADERSHIP
Not all leaders hold official titles.
When leaders coach, inspire, share what they know, support and challenge their team members and share their vision for the future, they are elevating the organization as well.
Making the transition from specialist to leader and then leader of leaders come with a variety of skills. Co-creating leadership interventions that are unique to your unique needs and circumstances is at the heart of what we do.
SUCCESSION MANAGEMENT
Succession planning is the process of ensuring that an organization develops their identified employees to fill future key roles within the company.
By using a leadership pipeline model, the organization is able to generate a framework within which future leaders are identified, their competencies assessed, and plans drafted for their development.
COACHING FOR SUCCESS
We believe in following a coaching methodology of stretching and encouraging leaders to become the best versions of themselves, whilst equipping them with the necessary skills to Elevate their leadership.
We can incorporate a variety of Personality and team typing tools, including Belbin, Clifton Strengths and Enneagram to create personal awareness and reflection during coaching. Individual coaching sessions can be combined with team interventions.
MANAGING AND LEADING CHANGE
Change management is the application of a structured process and set of tools for leading the people side of change to achieve a desired outcome.
While all changes are unique and all individuals are unique, decades of research shows there are actions we can take to influence people in their individual transitions. Change management provides a structured approach for supporting people in your organization and helping them move through anticipated change.
ORGANIZATIONAL DESIGN
Organizational design is a methodical process of identifying dysfunctional areas in procedures, structures, processes and systems within an organization and then addressing these through various levers of performance to transform individual behaviors and adopt new ways of working.
Elevate follows a human-centered approach to Organizational Design that focuses on the co-creation of the optimal purpose driven organization.
