Organizational Development

Resistance and uncertainty among employees due to changes in tasks or roles are typical reactions. As long as the new workflows are not yet established and productivity is under pressure, a negative spiral can quickly develop.

Effective communication and involvement regarding both the "Why" and the progress of the reorganization are crucial. Cross-functional collaboration is a key success measure for us. Therefore, we ensure that cross-functional processes run smoothly and that cross-functional networking is co-designed from the beginning.

We understand transformation as accompanying you in the initiation and implementation of change programs to adequately respond to new market and customer requirements. We support you in increasing the willingness to change within your organization, strengthening implementation capabilities, and ensuring sustainable results. We advise you on all central change and turning points associated with the necessary cultural changes.

We see change work and corporate transformation as a long-term and holistic development process. To be successful, this process always includes cultural and psychological aspects in addition to technical content. Therefore, we attach particular importance to working with people, their values, attitudes, fears, and resistance to change.

The content of our work and support is based on the fundamental questions of your entrepreneurial orientation and development: Is the existing business model viable? Are the control models efficient? Are the management skills transformation-capable? Are the organizational structures adaptable?

 

Here are the topics we work on with you:

We analyze your existing organizational structure - both formal and informal - and jointly identify improvement potentials to increase agility and efficiency.

We develop and evaluate various structural alternatives that flatten hierarchies, shorten decision-making paths, and strengthen cross-functional collaboration.

We systematically determine the change impact to understand the effects of the new structure on leaders, employees, processes, interfaces, and customers.

Your organization implements modern leadership concepts and establishes effective participation processes that create identification and acceptance.

I wholeheartedly recommend Robert Körfer as a consultant in change management. In several projects within the insurance sector, both in specialized departments and IT, he has demonstrated his expertise and leadership strength in change processes. He played a key role in successfully guiding our organization through significant changes both nationally and internationally. I was particularly impressed by his ability to motivate teams, overcome resistance, and turn those affected into active participants. I am available for further inquiries.

In cooperation with Körfer Consulting, I particularly appreciated the flexible and individualized approach. The collaboration focused on the development of a new control system. The challenge was dealing with resentments and resistance. Robert Körfer greatly helped us keep the main thread in sight and adequately consider the change dimension.

Our leaders were challenged and strengthened in their roles, and the employees were activated and inspired for the new changes.
