Transformation IQ: A Better Way

Too often, reorganizations are painful, difficult experiences for everyone involved. Usually, it’s because 

leaders are simply moving boxes around the organizational chart rather than thoughtfully considering the 

organization’s mission and aligning staff capabilities and interests with it. Making the wrong choices can be 

costly, cause grievances, and may be worse than doing nothing at all. 

Successfully restructuring an organization takes vision and confidence. Intentional, transparent choices help 

employees feel engaged throughout the entire process. Transformation IQ helps you take care of your people 

while optimizing your positions. Our objective third-party support reduces the tension and stress of restructuring. 

How HR Solutions Can Help

Transformation IQ changes the restructuring dynamic by aligning objectives, mission goals, and employee 

interests (I) and qualifications (Q) using a valid, informed, and effective process. We use data-driven 

methods to assess your organizational and operational needs and gain a complete understanding of 

individual employees. Transformation IQ is the better way to reorganize and optimize your workforce. 

Data-Driven Insights 

Transformation IQ provides the framework, process, and tools to get the right people with the right skills in 

the right place to reach your mission goals. Our industrial-organizational psychologists and HR consultants 

use government reorganization research, extensive experience, and data-driven methods to assess 

employees’ interests and qualifications. From this information, we create defensible position placements 

aligned with your reorganization objectives.

The streamlined process includes an online multipart assessment measuring interests and qualifications, 

which leads to more effective talent placement recommendations. We facilitate sessions with executive 

leadership to finalize placements and prepare supporting materials for reorganization communications, 

including organization charts. 

• Identify potential for success: Customize multifaceted assessments to get a complete view of 

employees and their capability to succeed. 

• Measure abilities: Capture rigorous, objective data on essential judgments and behaviors. 

• Reorganize with confidence: Identify the right employees with the needed skills and matching 

interests for identified business needs.
Manage Change, Engage Employees

The climate and practices developed during a reorganization can have long-lasting impacts on how you 

achieve your goals and mission. Undergoing dramatic change requires strong leadership support and 

consistent involvement. Employees need to understand the changing nature of their organization and the 

way their work will be restructured. To keep your organization performing at the highest possible level, we 

assist you in developing a comprehensive change management strategy.

Transformation IQ services include:

Communication Support

We share the vision and process with your employees from the onset of the 

transformation through implemented changes. We help you draft communications 

that keep employees informed, engaged, and productive throughout the 

transformation process.

Mission-Focused Strategy

Deploying our evidence-based assessments is foundational to a transformation that is 

valid, defensible, and mission focused. We take the conjecture out of reorganization. 

After assessing your business and workforce requirements and goals, we offer clear 

recommendations for your organization to achieve its mission.

Employee Engagement

Positively engaging employees and dispelling uncertainty are key tenets of change 

management. Experience shows that the gaps between old and new behavioral 

paradigms can leave an uncomfortable void. We work with you and your employees 

on normalizing new patterns and processes until your transformed organization is 

fully operational.

Efficient and Cost-Effective Transformation

Restructuring projects have deadlines and demand tangible results. Executing a transformation on time 

and within budget is often the first critical milestone of your journey. We can get you there more quickly 

by eliminating competitive procurements and using our interagency agreement process to secure your 

end-to-end change management initiative.
