Strategic Organizational Alignment

Striking a Balance
Fundamental to all organizations is the understanding that we are faced with two tensions.  The tension between maintenance activities or those that we undertake to “keep the doors open” and advancement activities or those that keep us “relevant and viable” in a world of ever-changing expectations regarding what is valued and what service requirements are most appropriate for emerging or future client interests. The challenge is to understand the importance of both activities and not to become immersed in one despite the other.  

As well, organizations are facing increased pressure to address efforts that pay close attention to the three key elements often refer to it as the “Triple Bottom Line”.  It is not one over the other but rather how do we invest in one in a manner that complements or is considerate to the others.  Sustainable organizational development requires that we pay close attention to the interactions amongst these key elements.

SM Solutions has developed methodology and defined frameworks that can assist your organization in achieving the mobilization of a functional strategic framework that will help you to achieve your triple bottom line.
