Research and management consulting company ACT offers Georgian business companies a unique product for solving the problems of the post-crisis period. LEADERSHIP SCANNER is a management tool and is designed to improve efficiency.
In response to modern challenges around the world, companies are paying more attention to the climate within the organization, and the discovery, and development of their support - people.
An important criterion for evaluating the success of companies in the post-crisis period was how well they managed to overcome the crisis and whether the company's employees were united and involved in the process. Every successful company today shares its experience, and in the process of crisis analysis takes care to create a visible picture of the invisible processes taking place within the company.
Research and management consulting company ACT presents LEADERSHIP SCANNER® - a unique tool for the proper management of human capital and the identification of new talents! The results obtained by the "scanner" increase the effectiveness of management, as they simplify the adoption of the necessary and reasonable decisions, and accurately determine the points of action for instant response in the direction of organizational development:
Using this product gives the organization the opportunity to improve the climate in the company and discover new opportunities:
Often the structural arrangement of companies does not correspond to the social structure within the company. There are people who, despite their position, have more social capital than others. The real picture should be blurry, without sharp contours.
That is why the tool is especially effective for a company in changing situations: with the arrival of new top management, transformation, rapid changes and increased management efficiency, using LEADERSHIP SCANNER will give management a clear idea of what the real internal anatomy of the company really is, the social hierarchy and who is the pivot point.
An organization is a living and dynamic organism, changes in an organization are constant and inevitable, so keeping abreast of an organization means properly managing business processes outside the company. ACT, a research and management consulting company with 20 years of experience and knowledge of the business environment, has a vision of cutting-edge industry trends, so it knows exactly what businesses and their managers need today. With this in mind, ACT offers unique and effective management consulting products to companies operating in the Georgian and international markets. The Leadership Scanner is one such product that allows management to be more informed, have the right vision, maintain a perception of reality, identify hidden risks, and assess team potential.
Leadership Scanner results are not static and need to be updated regularly. In our experience, the results of the Leadership Scanner remain valid and up-to-date for 12 months, which is why it is recommended to conduct it once a year. We believe that each company is individual and unique, therefore their response to challenges may be different, although an objective assessment of the situation is important for each and is a necessary prerequisite for their different strategies. ACT invites you to get an offer tailored to your needs and experience the unique features of the tool for yourself.
