Building on a successful career of over 30 years as a corporate executive, consulting practice leader and research director in large and medium international and national firms, Kevin O’Farrell founded the boutique firm CREKOF Inc. in 2014 to help organizations enhance their performance Culture, their Restructuring efforts and their overall Effectiveness in order to achieve their business objectives.
Why these three particular elements?
To address some of the most persistent barriers to, and derailers of, organizational strategy execution.
Culture
Culture is about the leadership and how it behaves; it is about how the enterprise as a whole adapts to constant change;
it is about whether the customer is truly valued in the everyday delivery of products and services.
Restructuring
Structure can be an enabler or a deterrent, but it is often over-used as the only solution to a dismal bottom line or chronic productivity or quality gaps.
Effectiveness
And Effectiveness is about clear governance and empowerment, team alignment, strong communications, continuous improvement and employee engagement and learning. So clearly, attention must be paid to these three key dimensions.
CREKOF also has access to a strong network of highly qualified consultants covering a broad spectrum of expertise and complementary skill sets in the areas of Organizational Research, Analytics and Business Intelligence, Rewards, Communications and Marketing as well as in the various specialties of Organizational and People Development. These are all professionals who are capable and trustworthy and who share a common passion with Kevin O’Farrell for service excellence and creative and pragmatic solutions. These consultants are presented on a project by project basis, according to client needs and scope.
