Capacity Development

Systems Development

Capacity and Organizational Development is done collaboratively where we map out the process to create an efficient and vibrant working atmosphere. Through Action Research, we start off by interviewing staff and collate the themes that arise, then share with everyone together. At the time of the feedback, when it is most ripe, we decide, as a team, what topics to focus on to begin the work. We start by asking these questions:

What’s working?
What projects are your stuck on?
Who is responsible for executing those projects and how can we support them?
What resources are needed to ensure successful implementation?
What constitutes a healthy atmosphere for you?

We are prepared to do a deep dive into your day to day systems and design a process that works for all and increases productivity.

Efficiency

With effective organizational systems it makes it easy to create action plans that are specific, manageable, achievable, realistic, and timely. Aranya does this by looking at multiple aspects of the system that would have positive impacts on the overall result. We work with you to improve the process as necessary to create a more efficient system resulting in increased innovation, substantial improvements in group/team effectiveness, and coordinated systems development.

Communication

Aranya develops soft skills that bring hard results, such as communications to help programs run effectively and nurture a more productive staff. The focus is on accountability and clear communications that result in achieving deliverables and identifying resources needed to reach targets and goals; thus creating high performing teams.

An example of this area of work, in 2011 at The Walt Disney Company, Katrina was an Internal Consultant to business units for environmental initiatives. She developed communication plans and implementation process for environmental policies companywide and created resources to support the understanding for true implemenation and use.

Coaching

Aranya can increase personal motivation and effectiveness through one-on-one consulting. We are prepared to do a deep dive into your day-to-day systems and design a process that works for all and increases productivity.
