The Centre For Organisational Effectiveness (COE Partners) was established with the vision of helping to develop high performing organisations.
In other words, we support organisations to improve their effectiveness by:
Therefore, our dynamic approach builds the right combination of Customers, Operations and Enablers to deliver measurable results for both business and employees.
So, to determine what business results are most meaningful, we help clients formulate and implement business strategies.
We support our clients change the way work gets done by drawing on our process excellence and innovation experience. And, we are coupling that with industry-specific and the specialised knowledge of our consultants.

As practice partners, we help clients achieve specific measurable results while ensuring that you “are in the driver’s seat” and acquire skills that strengthen both individuals and the organisation as a whole.
COE (COE Partners) is uniquely placed in the industry, offering a complete consultancy service package with a comprehensive portfolio of services focused on enhancing your organisational value.
Our approach centres on creating an environment for change, equipping your talent with the necessary competencies and matching the change objectives to be in line with both internal and industry demands. COE Partners has a natural market presence that is not matched by other service providers.

COE’s Key Values include measurable and lasting improvement, continuous knowledge transfer, the development of long term business relationships, the creation of learning networks, and a strong commitment to business ethics.

Offering expertise both in hard and soft skills to cater any potential challenges supports your orgainsation’s effectiveness, strategy and implementation by focusing on a tried and proven approach that has made COE and our clients successful.
Trainees learn best through hands-on experiences. That is to say, embarking on modern Process Excellence or People Excellence concepts can be a very overwhelming subject. Therefore, all of our programs are designed around core learning simulations.
These simulations give the opportunity not just to learn tools and methodology. Hence, they help create an environment to explore what best suits your company and how to get the best benefits out of the efforts.
As a core learning tool, we use a simulated company and have our participants work on the company’s core processes towards their business objectives. In other words, our Learning Simulation is a team based real time “game”. So, participants play out the management and operational roles within the simulated company. And – in the process – they learn how to apply tools, be it Six Sigma, Lean, Innovation or Strategy Deployment. This is certainly a fun and interactive learning experience. Most importantly, this learning simulation focuses on achieving breakthrough understanding of the tools taught.
In conclusion, this form of experiential learning is available in most programmes we offer.
Firstly, we serve our clients to achieve their aspiration in using proven methodologies such as Six Sigma, Lean or Innovation. This does not serve as a training endeavour only but as an instrument to implement cultural change with tangible business results. From a consultancy perspective, COE have been assisting many organisations with similar aspiration. Consequently, bringing the participants together allows for cross learning. To clarify, this goes beyond workshop sessions as the desire to share experiences to harmonise common challenge is of priority. And, this helps gain understanding and more importantly an alignment to business needs.
Secondly, we work in partnership with our clients and see our projects through to delivering results. Therefore, our compensation for selected projects is based on a success fee pegged to agreed deliverables. So, we share risks and rewards with our clients.
They (COE) were not only keen listeners, but excellent implementers. They went to the extend of hand holding our participants and walking the warehouse operations to aid them through the complexity of the projects.

Furthermore, we know that changing the way we work has a profound impact on the organisation and its people. The way work is organised and people behave are two sides of the same coin. We use our ability to address both the process and people aspects of process improvement to achieve dramatic improvements in performance and climate.
Finally, for the initial phase of our client engagements COE Partners provide the necessary coaching – the “hand-holding” – for your newly trained management team or staff. Objectives of coaching are in particular:
