Are you looking to change your structure or roles at work?

Workplace Redesign examines people, systems and processes, results, and the culture of the workplace to result in increased efficiency, potential financial savings, and employee well-being and satisfaction. Organizational Effectiveness (OE) uses a Workplace Redesign model including: getting started, planning the changes, making the changes, and finally sustaining the changes that were made. Support is available through the Consultation Process. Also visit the Workforce and Workload Planning Toolkit for more information.
