The Organizational Health Check: The First Step to a More Aligned Business

See how an OD diagnostic reveals what’s working, what’s misaligned, and where change is truly needed.

The health of an organization is rarely defined by one issue. Misalignment typically shows up in subtle ways: slowed decision-making, unclear priorities, role confusion, behavioral tensions, or a growing sense that “something isn’t working anymore."

This is where an Organizational Development Health Check becomes critical. More than an audit, it’s a diagnostic evaluation of your strategy, structure, processes, and people work together, revealing what’s supporting effectiveness and what’s holding it back.

What Is an Organizational Development Health Check?

An Organizational Development Health Check is a comprehensive diagnostic that evaluates the key elements that shape how your organization functions:

The goal is simple:

To understand what’s working, what’s misaligned, and where change is needed.

Through interviews, observations, and surveys, we uncover insights that reveal how your organization truly operates. Leaders walk away with:

  • A clear understanding of the current state
  • Specific areas of strength and opportunity
  • Actionable recommendations

From these insights, we map out the right path, whether that’s organizational consulting, leadership coaching, or team development.

Why An Organizational Health Check Matters

Here are three key reasons why a structured assessment transforms an organization:

  1. Clarity Before Action: Instead of reacting to symptoms, like turnover, conflict, or low productivity, you identify the root causes behind them.
  2. Alignment Across the System: You see how strategy, processes, and culture interact. Misalignment between these areas is often what creates recurring issues.
  3. A Targeted, Effective Path Forward: With an understanding of the real problem, the solutions become clearer, more strategic, and more impactful.
