Methodology
Bottom line: Organizational power diagnosis maps talent, mechanisms, and culture plus strategy carry before you redesign KPIs. XieChunQiu positioning: help strategy land — build organizational power, get business results. Diagnosis decides where OSMP starts.
Three signals to act
- Big and small decisions return to the owner
- BUs hit KPIs but group profit does not move
- Strategy agreed in January, forgotten by March
Two of three — act on mechanisms, not another offsite.
Four blocks
Strategy carry — can three mid-managers state this quarter’s top three priorities without notes?
Roles — accountability map before org chart.
Mechanisms — KPI and pay same language in reviews?
Culture — do rules or relationships decide promotions?
Next step
Problem tree: what % is metrics vs roles vs pay linkage — then contract OSMP phases with milestones.
