PEOPLE INNOVATION FIRST
The Centre for Workforce Innovation institute was established as a response to the market demand for innovative thinking when it comes to Organisational Theory. Our mission is to change how management is practiced and taught. Since 2007 we have pursued this calling, transforming the world one organisation at a time. We believe there is a better way to manage. We believe that way is a systematic, highly collaborative, common-sense approach that deeply engages the hearts and minds of employees at all levels, harnesses conflict constructively, and builds a strong and pervasive culture of mutual trust and mutual respect. The Centre provides leaders with the tools, resources, and support to develop this kind of management in any organisation.
We know from over 20 years of experience with clients in 4 countries that range from JSE listed to middle market companies, start-ups, and governments that our approach to management builds healthy, high-performing, self-managing organisations. Organisations that have the capability to successfully tackle any challenge, consistently WOW customers, attract and retain exceptional talent, generate superior financial returns, and become dominant competitors.

In modern organisations the art of management is quickly being replaced with the science of management. Scientific management has been adopted by most of the largest global organisations, where organisational theory focuses on task performance and structure is evident.
The challenge of a fit-for-purpose workforce is to align jobs and people to where value is being created, and to enable a mechanism to develop fit-for-purpose skills and behaviours. This is about balancing organisational and employees’ ambitions and expectations, and looking at it from a strategic and integrated point of view.
How individuals and groups interact within an organisation and how these interactions affect an organisation's performance toward its goals.
The way or method by which organisational activities are divided, organised, coordinated and supervised towrds achieving organisational goals.
The set of values, beliefs, attitudes, systems and rules that outline and influence employee behaviour and interaction within an organisation.

We work with clients in two ways; 1) we teach them the principles and practices of the Workforce Integration Methodology, and 2) we work side-by-side and guide them to transform the management of their organizations through the Institute.
We guide CEOs and their leadership teams to navigate lifecycle challenges and reach its prime – the only stage where a company is able to enjoy market leading growth and profitability. We are particularly adept helping companies make lifecycle transitions. We have also had great success rejuvenating aging organisations.
We specialise in guiding leaders of organisations (CEOs, top management teams, boards, owners) to quickly and effectively transition between growth stages and effectively managing change.
Through our graduate school, we teach and develop a new age of leaders. These leaders are better equipped to lead more effective integrated teams of highly efficient individuals.
Organisations with a well developed and efficient workforce will outperform their competitors by as musch as 4 times. This requires effective recruitment and allocation of responsibilities.
If you can't measure it you can't improve it. Conducting assessments enables the organisation to make better decisions before, during and after implementation of any aspect of the organisation.
Assessments are the difference between knowing and guessing. By assessing every aspect of your business enables stakeholders to plan better, appoint better and set benchmarks to measure performance and improvement more accurately. The key however lies within the successful integration of the assessment outcomes with the organisational structure and operations.
