The Vertical Dimension. Blueprint to Align Business and Organizational Development.

Authored by Jan De Visch, this insightful book is about organizational development and puts forward a leading-edge theory on the critical thinking and essential processes that lead to organizational success. The book’s focus is on companies that aim to provide consistently superior returns for stakeholders—in other words, organizations that have a mandate to create stakeholder value. Jan De Visch brilliantly takes what is essentially an “integral” perspective. He critiques current and widely accepted approaches to talent management that exist within firms as an isolated discipline, separate and distinct, from other organizational systems. In essence, he advocates an integrated approach that clearly aligns business strategy, organizational structure, and the development and leverage of human and knowledge capital.

Growth plan(s) and focused action based on managerial leader

Effective Talent Management begins by mapping current talent and intellectual capital resources. Connect & Transform uses a methodology that was developed out of a forty-year longitudinal study of staff career development, and the recent findings in constructive developmental psychology (which focus more on the vertical dimensions such as cognitive and social-emotional development). This insight and approach better supports same scale measurement and comparison of the complexity level of roles and the complexity level staff can successfully handle. By this means, any prediction of their essential role contribution is enhanced .

Leaders embrace the Connect & Transform approach as it transcends conventional staff members’ self-analyses schemes and truly helps leaders identify what they developmentally want to achieve and opportunitites within their own growth. The guided self assessment character of Connect & Transforms D.E.S.T.I.N.Y. method™ immediately stimulates candidates to take action, compared with engaging in defensive reactions when feedback is provided through expert assessments.
