"The single greatest advantage any company can achieve is organizational health" (Lencioni, 2012). I completely agree with this statement. But, what are the elements of "organizationaal health?" Here are a few key ones:

• Minimal internal politics
• Effective organizational structures and processes (e.g., hierarchy, roles and responsibilities, communication, etc.)
• Effective leadership (a behaviorally aligned leadership team and effective middle management)
• Effective use of conflict resolution processes (This is a hard one for many companies)
• Effective orientation and reinforcement of employees to the key values and processes

These elements may sound easy and common sense, but are often neglected by organizations, to their own detriment.
