The Organizational Scan process is the starting point for everything we do. It is a thorough diagnosis of your organizations component systems that allows us to examine the external environment, organizational strategy, culture, infrastructure and stakeholder expectations.

The Organizational Scan leads to the identification and prioritization of key business issues challenging your organization.

The combined scan is basically a process of cultural due diligence, concentrating typically on two organizations involved in a merger, alliance or acquisition.
