Perspective

The needs of organisations and people are interconnected

Sustainable performance emerges when the organisation's Purpose and people's conditions for performance reinforce one another.

Understand the perspective See what it means in practice

Core idea

Organisations develop through people's performance.

Organisations need results, quality, development and the ability to manage change. People need context, direction, reasonable conditions and the opportunity to contribute. These are two sides of the same system.

When people have better conditions for succeeding in their Purpose, the organisation's ability to perform grows stronger. When the organisation's Purpose is clear, people can more easily understand their role, take responsibility and contribute their competence.

Perspective 01

This perspective forms the foundation of Verksamhetsskap®: performance, wellbeing and development need to be part of the same organisational logic.

What it means for organisations

Leadership, HR and managers need to address results and conditions together.

In practice, performance and people's conditions need to be understood together: what are we here to achieve, and what do people need to achieve it sustainably?

Leadership

The Purpose needs to be useful.

Strategy and direction gain momentum when they can be translated into everyday responsibilities, priorities and decisions.

HR

People-related issues are connected to the organisation.

HR becomes more strategic when its work is connected to the conditions needed for performance, responsibility and development.

Managers

Dialogue connects expectations with opportunities.

In everyday work, managers need to discuss the Purpose while also making visible what people need to succeed.

Connection to Verksamhetsskap®

Verksamhetsskap® organises work around both sets of needs.

Verksamhetsskap® is based on bringing the organisation's needs and people's needs together in everyday work. Purpose provides direction, conditions make performance possible and dialogue connects people, teams and processes.

Agerus puts this into practice through research, method, a digital platform, training and consulting support. The aim is to help organisations create results through ways of working that also strengthen people's opportunities to succeed.
