Effective Managers Announces Partnership Agreement with NewRealGoal (NRG)

Kiev, Ukraine. Dwight Mihalicz, President of Effective Managers^TM announced today the signing of an agreement with NewRealGoal, based in Kiev, Ukraine.

“NRG brings significant experience and an excellent track record in executive and manager development”, said Dwight Mihalicz. “Our approach is a natural extension for NRG, as Effective Managers^TM provides a methodology that can expand their offering.”

Andrew commented on the agreement and its potential in Ukraine and neighbouring Russian speaking countries: “I met Dwight in Tehran as he presented a workshop on strategy execution. I was very impressed with the sound methodology and how it could be helpful to our clients. We started talking immediately and within a month we were pleased that Dwight could lead a workshop with over 20 executives and managers from our client base. ”

The Effective Manager^TM Assessment uses a proprietary survey methodology to engage managers specifically to assess their overall effectiveness, and the key factors that impede or support them in their work. The benchmark shows that managers are, in fact, working at only 55% effectiveness. The results can provide insights to CEOs and Heads of HR on how to align their managerial work force so that strategy execution can be enhanced. Results can also offer insight prior to a major change initiative in the organization that can help shape a new organizational design, like a merger or acquisition.

The Effective Managers^TM Assessment is a 94-question confidential survey has been developed to gather data directly from managers, who can log on to a secure web site to provide their direct input on these measures. Traditional employee surveys require all employers to participate. With this survey, a CEO can get the results with an investment of 20 – 30 minutes of each manager’s time.

CEOs receive a report that details the findings in their organization, grouped together with benchmark results. Each measure is described in detail to ensure an understanding of what the results mean. The report concludes with the high level findings, customized for their organization, together with the areas of greatest strengths and greatest opportunities. If a CEO can understand the relationships between these measures and effectiveness in their organizations, action can be taken that will improve effectiveness.

“The agreement also gives NRG access to The Effective Point of Accountability®”, added Dwight. “This approach to accountability in organizations can be used to improve delegation of work. It can also be used to improve cross functional work and break down silos. It is a proven and effective method of increasing organizational performance.”
