In any organization, results rely on relationships. Whatever your business or change strategy, its success depends on people working together effectively You rely on people and teams to generate ideas, develop and share knowledge, and deliver sustainably strong performance. The smarter and leaner you have to be to compete in a challenging economy, the more you rely on people to make your strategy work.

Yet as much as success depends on it, few organizations focus enough on developing this critical relationship capacity. You wouldn't expect your manufacturing, marketing, or information technology systems to be effective without detailed design, maintenance, and training. In fact, you know that every system in your business requires thoughtful architecture and construction to create and sustain success. Your human relationship system does, too.

Relationship architecture is the art and science of developing a strong, strategic and flexible human relationship system.

• Strong because everyone is fully engaged and participating, enabling your organization to plan and execute systemically, not compartmentally
• Strategic because it is custom designed to create the specific outcomes that build your success
• Flexible because leaders, teams, and your entire workforce develop the structure, skill and muscle needed to respond quickly to continuous change

A coherent relationship systems architecture enables people to take decisive, purposeful action within a framework of authentic human connection. This catalyzes the confidence and inspiration that has your entire organization stretch beyond current capacity, realizing its full potential and success.
