In this episode, Leadosophy discusses how we uniquely conceptualize organizational effectiveness. We each bring our own assumptions to this dialogue session. Organizations come in many sizes and forms, from formal organizations like for-profit businesses and not-for-profit businesses to informal organizations like a local community group of volunteers who organically form to tackle local issues like crime, poverty, or addressing a lack of after-school activities for the youth. More than likely, we all are members of one or many organizations right now.\n\nThere is a lot of discussion about the term \u201corganizational effectiveness\u201d and how to make organizations more effective. But how do we define an \u201ceffective organization,\u201d and what does it mean to be an \u201ceffective organization?\u201d Is \u201ceffectiveness\u201d unique to each organization?\n\nShow Guests:\nAdam Lorentz, US Coast Guard\nJessica Shafer, US Coast Guard\n\nAll views expressed by the show guests are their own; their viewpoints are not the official stances of their respective organizations. \n\nReferences\n\n1.
