Group Institute International: About us
Group Institute International has been operating as a small independent organizational consultancy since 1993 (Formerly as Martin Ringer Consulting NZ Ltd). From the inception we have specialized in providing services that are developed specifically for each client, rather than selecting from a range of off the shelf products.
The main strengths of our services are as follows: -
- Our approach includes working beneath the surface to deal with issues that could otherwise de-rail attempts to change or improve a venture or an organization
- Whilst we understand the dynamics of the 'hidden organization' we also understand the workings of systems, structures and procedures that are an essential part of any effective organization
- We listen very attentively to our clients and do a thorough analysis to determine exactly what they need
- We have an extensive knowledge of principles, models and theories that underpin organizational effectiveness and we apply them in a pragmatic way without jargon and verbal smoke-screens
- We build long-term durable and trusting relationships with clients so that we are in fact a part of the resources that they have on call at any time, but unless we're directly working for an organization we cost them nothing
- We have a thorough understanding of how organizations learn and change, including motivators for change and resistance to change
- Our approach consists of an art form where, after the initial assessment, we create a plan and commence on a path for the consultancy project but recognize that the unexpected is normal and so are ready at any time to change course to take into account new information as it emerges.
Summary:
The consulting business is a small, specialized enterprise with a significant strength in working with complex overt and covert issues in corporate settings. All engagements with clients are established on the understanding that organizations are complex dynamic and unpredictable enterprises that defy the full understanding of any one person. The company specializes in collaborating in-depth with clients to explore the subtleties of the issues that need to be addressed, whilst at the same time, honoring the need for organizations to limit the amount of time and money they expend with consultants. Successful outcomes are achieved not with the competence of the consultants alone, but with committed and robust collaboration between consultant and client.
