Introduction
Robyn D. Clark Consulting, a specialist in organisation design, executive and leadership coaching, organisational structure, and job design, has found a powerful ally in Beamible. In this case study, we explore how Beamible has become an integral tool in Robyn’s consultancy work, revolutionising her approach to job design, org design and process optimisation.
Using Beamible, Robyn has been able to speed up her process for job analysis and scenario modelling by 50%, and that’s just the beginning.
The Challenge
Robyn works with a diverse range of clients, from small teams to large organisations. Her clients often face complex challenges related to operating model decisions, org design, job design, role clarity, and process efficiency. Traditional methods of job analysis, such as using spreadsheets, are time-consuming, unengaging, and often lack the sophistication needed for executive-level presentations.
As Robyn noted, “Before Beamible, conducting job analysis was laborious and inefficient, costing clients more time and money than necessary.”
Why Beamible?
Beamible’s work design tooling offered the dynamic and agile solution Robyn needed. The platform’s capabilities in job design and scenario modelling were particularly beneficial for her consultancy.
Robyn highlighted several reasons for choosing Beamible:
- Agile Job Design: Beamible enables deep task-based analysis and allows continuous refinement of job roles through agile methodologies.
- Scenario Modelling: The ability to run various “what if” scenarios helps Robyn and her clients visualise the impact of changes in real-time.
- Efficiency and Professionalism: Beamible transforms traditional job analysis into a more engaging and less time-consuming process, while also producing professional reports suitable for executive presentations.
What functionality does Beamible provide to support her Consulting Work?
Robyn found several specific features of Beamible to be highly beneficial for her clients:
- Drag and Drop for Creating New Roles: Robyn appreciated the drag-and-drop functionality in Beamible, which made it easy to redesign and design new roles. This feature was described as “incredibly valuable.”
- Analysis and Insights: The analysis and insights provided by Beamible were also highlighted as highly useful. Robyn mentioned that these aspects are very engaging for clients as they provide the rationale for the changes planned and are used in the post implementation measurement phase..
- AI Job Description Proforma Pre-filling: Robyn found the AI job description proforma pre-filling feature to be especially valuable, as it allows for starting with some data already prepared in Beamible. This is a huge time saver.
- Data Upload and Preparation: The ability to upload everything from staffing numbers to salary costs into Beamible for analysis was another feature Robyn liked.
- Process Review: Robyn used Beamable for process review pieces, such as identifying inefficiencies and mapping processes.
- Customer Engagement and Feedback: Robyn noted that clients find Beamible to be highly engaging, which is important for their involvement and satisfaction with the process, often demonstrating live the current state and future options in a workshop with an Executive team.
- Ongoing Data Collection: She mentioned the potential for ongoing data collection and monthly check-ins on roles as an ongoing benefit of using Beamible, although not all clients opt for this.
