One platform that consistently monitors for change

OrangeBox as an Organizational-Institute for Organic Leadership

A university doesn't produce science but provides a platform for people to make science. The notion of OrangeBox is similar. A management that will go through a change process will be provided with an organization-specific institutionalized platform. This platform will be connected to the past of the organization as well as outside the world as an internal institution through its mechanism. It provides a guidance for change.

Regardless of management substitutions and transformed business understandings, the institution will always be there to bring the consistency and sustainability in the long-term. So Organic Leadership can be obtained that promotes harmony with a constantly changing environment.

As can be seen in the illustration, regardless of management and leadership substitutions and transformed business understandings or units, OrangeBox will always be there to bring the consistency in the long-term.

OrangeBox Meta-Methodology: Define the underlying-structure

Structure produces behavior. Behavior leads change. So, a systemic approach to articulate the underlying structure of an organization is the key for change. OrangeBox is designed with this purpose. Therefore, it begins with identifying the meta-methodology. Meta-methodology in the sense of self-referential of business at a higher level. So, a leadership can deeply understand its underlying structure, produce new methodologies and behaviors, and change them in certain ways in a fast and predictable fashion. It leads to systems thinking (vs. event-oriented thinking). Consequently, change can be easier starting from the very fundamental levels in a fast-moving world.

Get ready to hear unpleasant and honest news by defining the underlying structure

OrangeBox will serve for a management to project early-identified historic organizational weaknesses, strengths and overlooked limiting factors for success. It is to unleash candid discussions about performance by focusing on broader indexes. It is to align with the laid-out strategy. Because a management will be able to specify the milestones of success and patterns of change, they will also be able to revalidate, model and pursue applying them. Eventually they will learn from failures. Ultimately, OrangeBox will transform an enterprise into a continuously learning organization within a structural mechanism.

Connect outside the world

CONNECT OUTSIDE THE WORLD THROUGH THE INSTITUTION

With OrangeBox, you can connect your organization to outside the world. Being able to know what's happening out there and making comparisons over the milestones, not only results, are absolute competitive advantages in a time of great uncertainty and volatility.

Past successes may encourage to turn inwards: Stop this with the institution

Connecting outside the world within a mechanism will help to confront crisis early enough. The mechanism is important here because no one has time to get connected. The understanding, "we are in great shape", if existed, will be no longer remaining. There is always the better to discover!

The structure with OrangeBox will be as the following;

In this structure, an organization will be connected outside the world over the milestones and parameters of an organizational success or failure. This structure is utilized as opposed to using outcomes or results only to see where the company is. Herein, parameters comprise the channels, which help to connect to outside the world.

Inclusiveness with OrangeBox as an Institution

OrangeBox is an inclusive platform that communicates with everyone in the organization as an internally independent organizational institution. The fact is that leadership, even if they tend to be, may not have sufficient time to be inclusive all the time. This needs to be empowered by an independent mechanism in a consistent manner.

Inclusiveness will be effective in the following areas;

increasing the awareness of people regarding the vision, path, and strategy map, using several communication channels,
inquiring people's ideas and thoughts to make them feel involved and to be supportive to the decision-making cycle,
diffusing progress-related reports and news across the divisions.

The main goal with inclusiveness is to get everyone involved in the circle of the progresses across the organization and let them have a thought- and maybe have a say- about them. This will also help to create more intellectual capabilities across the enterprise as well as new leaders, if the organization is intended to do so. Having people embrace the organization's own initiatives and paths, as if they are theirs, will make a difference.

Succeed to look at issues through the lens of the vision with the inclusiveness

It is a hard task for managers, leaders, supervisors, and employees to look at issues and opportunities through the lens of the vision and strategy map in an organization. When people do this, they can align all the initiatives and decision-making cycle with the strategy. They can also grasp the understanding with convincing evidences organization-wise as to why they need to transform their organization.

Inclusiveness with OrangeBox as an Institution will help an organization succeed this thoroughly. The understanding, "The problems are over there, not here!", if existed, will be no longer remaining, by embedding a common organizational perspective through the inclusiveness.
