II.  Develop People & Teams

Companies who prioritize and invest in the development of their employees are more likely to have better business results compared to those companies that do not.  Arrowhead will partner with you to develop customized learning solutions focused on improving your employee’s ability to perform.  Our employee development capabilities include:

• Building the Foundation for Effective Performance:  Whether developing employees for their current role, or for their future, the development must be based on the core requirements of the role.  
  • Competency Modeling:  Conducting some level of a job analysis ensures the organization has valid and reliable job description to build from.  Through competency modeling, this process allows companies to identify what core competencies exist across all roles.  This information is critical in creating key performance measures and in ensuring the right development is available.  
  • Revitalizing the approach to Performance Management: We support clients in creating or redesigning their performance management process to ensure employees are given clear requirements for success, as well as timely and useful feedback on how they are performing.  Having a system that captures a detailed description of the required competencies to be successful also provides employees interested in furthering their career with a clear path to success.   
• Talent Development:  ensuring the right training and development resources are available to all employees at any level of the organization is critical to sustain top talent and development future talent in our ever-changing business environment.  Arrowhead Consulting has developmental resources focused on the following:
  • Employee Development:  We offer a variety of core competency training programs, as well as customized training solutions designed to enhance employees’ knowledge and skills to improve their performance in their role.
  • Leadership Development: Effective leadership is the foundation of any organization’s success.  We partner with clients to help them assess their leadership capabilities using a variety of leadership effectiveness assessments that measure the effectiveness of a leader based on factors such as communication, influence, and team performance.  The data is used to create a customized development plan, as well as to identify high potential leaders for purposes of succession planning.  Additionally, we offer leadership coaching that is a key component in our approach to developing leaders through one-on-one sessions that aim to improve a leader’s performance and develop their skills.
  • Team Development:  Inefficiencies, conflict, and miscommunication are typically at the core of ineffective teams. The results tend to be frustration, formation of sub-groups or clicks, and ultimately poor results.  We work with clients to build more effective teams using team effectiveness assessments to identify what is working well and what areas need improved.  Results are used to create customized team development activities that are designed to increase trust and improve collaboration among team members.
