surface gaps, overlaps, downstream implications, and risks that others may not see; and help establish shared direction and coordinated action. \nUse influence, facilitation, and sound judgment to create clarity, strengthen alignment and accountability, facilitate decisions, and help move complex work forward without relying on positional authority. \nOrganization Strategy, Design, and Ways of Working\nLead organization design and operating model engagements that may include current-state assessment, design criteria, structure, work design, roles, accountabilities, governance, decision rights, interfaces, talent implications, and implementation planning. \nTranslate business strategy into practical organizational capabilities and ways of working that improve alignment, agility, coordination, decision quality, and execution. \nLeadership and Team Effectiveness\nDesign and facilitate interventions that strengthen leadership alignment, team clarity, relationships, collaboration, accountability, decision making, and performance. \nGuide leadership teams and cross-functional groups through complex, ambiguous, or sensitive discussions, organizational decisions, problem solving, and alignment. \nChange, Readiness, and Sustainment\nIntegrate change practices into broader organizational interventions to strengthen stakeholder engagement, readiness, adoption, reinforcement, and sustainability. \nAssess cumulative impacts, interdependencies, workforce implications, and organizational capacity; transition completed work to the appropriate business or HR owner with clear sustainment accountabilities. \nWorkforce Strategy and Planning\nSupport workforce planning and future-readiness work by connecting business strategy to capability, skill, role, capacity, and talent implications. \nUse data, scenarios, and organizational insight to help leaders consider how changing business needs, technology, automation, and artificial intelligence may affect work and the workforce. \nConsulting, Partnership, and Capability Building\nServe as a trusted consultant to leaders and HR partners, providing strategic insight, constructive challenge, facilitation, and practical recommendations. \nPartner across HR and the enterprise to determine the appropriate delivery model, clarify roles and engagement expectations, and integrate related expertise into executable solutions. \nBuild capability in leaders and HR partners through frameworks, tools, coaching, and consultation, enabling others to address organizational effectiveness needs independently when appropriate. \nEngagement and Portfolio Discipline\nManage multiple concurrent engagements with discipline around scope, priorities, milestones, stakeholders, decisions, deliverables, risks, outcomes, and closeout. \nMaintain visibility to engagement health, dependencies, risks, and leadership attention needs; proactively surface implications across the broader OE portfolio and provide insight that supports prioritization and sequencing decisions. \nMeasurement, Learning, and Practice Development\nEstablish success measures at the beginning of an engagement across relevant business, organizational effectiveness, employee experience, and behavior outcomes; treat readiness as a leading indicator when appropriate. \nEvaluate impact and value, monitor sustainability, use evidence and feedback to adjust solutions, and contribute to the continuous improvement of Organization Effectiveness methods, tools, standards, and ways of working. \nStay current on Organization Development and Organization Effectiveness research and emerging practices, translating them into accessible, pragmatic business solutions. \nModels Thrivent’s leadership competencies - Model the Way, Rally the Team, and Deliver Outcomes. \nSupports an environment focused on continuous improvement, employee engagement, partnership, and an unwavering commitment to clients.
