ORGANISATIONAL DESIGN
ORG DESIGN
We support brands by empowering their people to better perform, this fundamentally comes down to an effective organisational design & structure
Culture Development & Employee Retention
A company culture is equivalent to a personality. Do you attract and retain employees or do you operate largely in isolation and find yourself in a loop of training and development?
Not sure if you should be learning more about these solutions? If you find yourself nodding along with a yes to be below questions, then it’s time we chat…
- You have had a 10% increase or are you planning on scaling up?
- Your staff are not sticking around for more that 1.5 years?
- Often have staff absent-minded, disengaged or calling in sick on short notice?
- Are you replacing the same skills over and over again?
- No one tends to take accountability?
If your retention rate is 1.5 years or less on average, then we need to sit down and have a chat. Adding team members is great, that’s growth, but if you can’t keep them around longer than what looks good on a CV, it’s clear some self-reflection is necessary – and thats where we step in – we create tangible metrics around measuring the road to a high-performing company culture and develop a road map to unlock your teams innovation and employee engagement.
The greatest leaders in an organisation are those who have self-awareness and are willing to do what it take to improve and get the most out of your resources. Is that you?

Let’s Talk About Organic Knowledge Transfer…
At the 5th Discipline, we understand that “culture eats strategy for breakfast.” Without a cohesive culture, businesses face challenges like high turnover, low morale and disengagement.
You need your employees to buy-in to your business, to want to come in to work everyday and do the best goddamn job they possibly can.
How do you go about creating a space like this? It’s easy when you understand people. And thats what we are great at, transformational leadership.

TRAINING FOR IMPROVED PERFORMANCE
We have proven experience enabling teams to be more proactive and productive.
We are experts in enabling teams to better perform. If teams struggle with effective time/project management, managing up, operating independently, communication, and meeting deliverables without compromising on quality outputs that ensure your brand is reflected in the right light and clients keep returning time and time again, then you have come to the right partner. We are here to help you scale by instilling a growth mindset.
In a nutshell
What Matters is Growth.
As a leader you understand the cost of losing clients and the time and operational costs it takes to acquire a new customer. The benchmark across industries state that 60% of your clients should be returning, unless of course you in the start-up phase. Being a manager you also understand the impact that your staff can have on retaining clients if they are not performing at the level your business needs.
To add to all of this, you are also acutely aware that your time is precious and you don’t always have capacity to train your teams up to improve their performance. You are in a bit of a tight spot, how do you juggle driving growth when you don’t have the capacity to mentor your staff to be more effective and execute autonomously.
Thats exactly the types of problems we solve for our clients. We help their teams to increase their productivity and outputs through improved commercial mindsets and knowledge management which enables better decision-making processes and increased self-management.

- Develop Customised Training & Conduct Training: Given the insights gathered, we customise the content of the training, develop the roadmap, outputs and develop a schedule. We then conduct training and ensure that the milestones of the learning are being met and applied by the individuals.
- Ongoing Support: Conduct check-ins and on-going situational support for the individuals.

SMARTER KPI’s
Over complicating your teams goals is distracting for managers and the team, if you want them to laser in, then keep it simple!
How can you measure success if you can’t track it? Too often, companies expect teams to just “do the job”… but that won’t spark excellence, autonomy, innovation or ownership.
We help you pinpoint key metrics, assign real value to your output and pull the right levers to drive true success.
Our expertise are unparalleled when it comes to strategy, analysis, commercial and creative thinking around how to drive improved performance through effective an measurable KPIs that also create a clear career roadmap for you employees, ensuring they are motivated, inspired, innovative, accountable, self-managed and autonomous. We help organisations to pull the right levers that ensure your staff act and communicate like business owners.
The inside scoop
Cutting Out the Noise.
In order to understand the levers for operational success, companies need to intrinsically identify strengths and weaknesses of their organisations – then, they need to pinpoint where these apply to their people, processes and systems and how to efficiently and effectively optimise.
Do this and you’ll be able to focus on the activities that actually add value, while deprioritising the components that just generate noise.
We have years of experience working with leaders across diverse clean-tech and net-zero business profiles in Africa. What we have found is that many leaders can become so focused on operational and commercial aspects of their business, that they tend to manage the wrong outputs of their staff or struggle to enable their teams to be better decision-makers and effectively manage themselves and collaborate with their colleagues.
Time is always a challenge for leaders and they often get so caught up in the day-to-day, that they just need some help taking a step back to think strategically and empower their teams.
Thats where the pros at 5th Discipline step in, we enable you to think out-the-box, build high-performing teams that you as a leader don’t need to spend hours managing and in short – free up your time so you can drive your business forward, lead and really inspire your team.
