Strategic Human Capital Planning
LinkVisum collaborates with our clients to tailor human capital strategies that accomplish organizational missions, goals, and objectives. We facilitate an iterative process to define each and align them with the clients’ business strategies and desired outcomes. Using this information, we develop strategies and tactics to identify associated activities, milestones, and performance metrics in support of the overarching human capital mission.
Change Management
Our certified change management professionals use a prepare/manage/reinforce framework to engage stakeholders at the individual, organizational, and leadership levels across the organization. This integrated approach not only encourages stakeholders to take ownership of the change but ultimately helps them accept and adopt the change, while seamlessly incorporating it into the organizational culture.
Organizational Assessment
LinkVisum assesses clients’ organizations to identify gaps and opportunities, develop customized solutions, and drive enhanced operational effectiveness and efficiency. Leveraging client leadership vision, mission requirements, and existing documentation, we develop a tailored a systematic approach to assessing the desired area, whether it be structure or staffing, workforce culture and morale, process effectiveness, workload, or other human capital functions. We use tools such as surveys, interviews, and focus groups to collect information and gain perspective from staff and stakeholders.
Performance Culture
Performance Management and Employee Engagement
The 2017 Federal Employee Viewpoint Survey (FEVS) lists the government-wide employee engagement index as 67% favorable – the highest rating since 2011. While this index has been trending modestly upward, several agencies have shown that it’s possible to make far more dramatic improvements in their levels of employee engagement. LinkVisum uses a root-cause methodology to help clients pinpoint specific areas of opportunity and then develops targeted action improvement plans that result in measurable changes.
The model for maximizing employee performance is undergoing significant change. Rigorous performance expectations, tightly aligned with an organization’s work unit requirements, are replacing ineffective performance plans and infrequent performance feedback. LinkVisum helps organizations create a new employee experience to help facilitate this shift, including the adoption of coach-like behaviors by managers and supervisors to engage employees in innovative ways that contribute to improved performance.
