The NBSA Process

1

Tailoring the NBSA to your Organization

We meet with your leadership team to understand your organization's specific challenges and goals.

We conduct brief interviews with representatives from each role in your organization. This step allows us to fine-tune our questionnaire and ensure it captures the nuances of each position.

The Organization fills their unique NBSA survey

All team members complete our carefully crafted survey.

The process typically takes about 1 hour per employee, providing us with rich, detailed insights.

Diagnostic Report and Roadmap Production

We analyze the data using our innovative Need-Based System Theory.

 

This approach allows us to uncover hidden patterns and connections within your organization.

Findings Presentation

We present our findings to management in a clear, comprehensive report.

The report is accompanied by a detailed roadmap for development, providing concrete steps for organizational enhancement. Based on this report, we develop a detailed roadmap outlining potential interventions and improvement strategies. This roadmap serves as a foundation for the next phase of collaborative planning.

Strategic Implementation Plan

Following the roadmap delivery, we engage in a collaborative synthesis process with the organization, transforming theoretical recommendations into a tailored, prioritized action plan with specific tasks, timelines, and measurable goals.

Optional: NBSA-based Organizational Counseling

We offer ongoing consulting to help you implement the recommended changes effectively.

Theoretical Foundation

NBSA is an evolution of Abraham Maslow's hierarchy of needs. While Maslow's theory focuses on individual needs, NBSA  expands this concept to organizational systems. NBSA concentrates on role-based needs, not just individual needs, and identifies the complex interplay between various needs and roles within an organization. This approach allows for a deeper understanding of organizational dynamics and provides a solid foundation for developing tailored solutions.

The Power of NBSA Across Industries

While initially developed for schools, the NBSA process is inherently flexible and adaptable. Our approach focuses on universal organizational needs – professional, emotional, social, administrative, and logistical – which are present in every industry. Whether you're in healthcare, tech, manufacturing, or any other sector, NBSA can provide valuable insights to drive your organization forward.
