development Clarifying the information to do quality work Exploring the people supportive methods and approaches to make RTSC
Stream Analysis
Its a system for graphically displaying the problems of an organization, examining the interconnections between the problems, identifying core problems and graphically tracking the corrective actions taken to solve the problems.
2. Diagnosing the problems and barriers to effectiveness 3. Classifying the problems into four streams . Identifying the core problems by noting the interconnections between the problems
Survey Feedback
Its a process of systematically collecting data about the system and feeding back the data for individuals and groups at all levels of the organization to analyze, interpret and design corrective action steps.
Top management involvement in planning Data to be collected from the whole organization Sharing of feedback information from top to low management Meeting with subordinates Consultant must be present in meetings

tool to help transformation leaders better understand the organisations culture as a basis for planning the transformation programme.
Bring together groupings of managers and or frontline staff to discuss organisational culture and begin to identify some of their own assumptions. Give a short input on organisational culture and the distinctions between artifacts, espoused values and underlying assumptions. Follow this with a brainstorming session around what they see as the artifacts of their organisation. If there are enough newcomers to the organisation they should form a separate group and report back first as they are likely to be the people best able to identify the organisations culture. Artifacts are things such as the office layout, the mode of dress, status symbols, and so on. Capture these on flip charts.
Follow this by a session to encourage the participants to observe some of the values that lie behind the artifacts. Write these down on a flipchart. The facilitator should begin to push for some of the underlying assumptions by noting areas of consistency and areas of inconsistency between artifacts and espoused values. Discuss with the group if the assumptions they have noted form a pattern. Break participants up into smaller groups and get them to identify some more assumptions and then classify them into two categories: those cultural assumptions that will aid the organisation in getting to its goals and those cultural assumptions that will hinder the organisation in getting got its goals.
analysed with the help of the facilitator to determine what steps might be appropriate. In this discussion it is crucial that the facilitator helps the group to focus on the useful parts of the culture. They should help the group to recognise what the consequences are of saying that they want to change those parts of the culture that they may view as unhelpful.
y From these workshops a series of actions can be developed to
align the organisational culture to the strategic direction and goals of the organisation. Through this process frontline staff are involved in owning both the diagnosis and the interventions.
