An organization that is not consistently evolving is in trouble. Maybe not now but in the near future, the effects of stagnation will catch up and the consequences are detrimental:
- Costly inefficiencies
- Low staff morale
- Antiquated practices and procedures
- Unhealthy work environments
- Lost potential revenue
- Expensive litigation
Adaptive and effective organizational structures are key to keeping municipalities autonomous and thriving! By not acknowledging and embracing the potential within your organization, municipalities are destined to become obsolete with forced regionalization and increased provincial interference.
AERRIS will conduct a hands on internal assessment of not just your organizational structure but a comprehensive review of every job on the organizational chart.
This internal audit will aim to determine what minor changes will result in improved efficiencies, specifically:
- Revised job descriptions that take into account actual employee duties
- Job sharing opportunities
- Job training and education
- Promotions
- Recognition programs
Major organizational recommendations are a last resort but can prove equally beneficial if a municipality is prepared for a major shift. This can include recommendations for:
- Creation of new departments and/or positions
- Complete revision of policy manuals
- Introduction of operational strategies for improved fiscal health
