Mission, Vision, & Strategy

"Incredible things are possible when you are incredibly clear about what needs to be done." This is as true for a project, a team or functional group, or the entire enterprise.

The Odyssey Group helps you gain the clarity you need to do incredible things. We bring a process and structure to help you make critical decisions about long term goals, what success will look like, and vital avenues to pursue to reach your goals.

Using intelligence about internal and external factors that impact the organization, function, or project, we guide you to agreement about the desired future. Once this goal statement is formulated we work with you to clarify the current state and gaps between this reality and your desired future. We bring the best thinking in your organization to bear on these issues in a creative process to identify options for reaching your goals. Next comes developing a plan that will take you to the revitalized mission, vision, and strategy that fits best for you.

Testimonials

"When I became City Attorney for Atlanta in mid-2002, I became the manager of a group of employees (about 70 at the time) that were working in a less than ideal situation. The work environment in the City was difficult and generally lacked the support needed to build a trusting relationship among staff and management, and the employees didn’t have a basis to believe that things would change. Within the first few months of becoming City Attorney, I was fortunate to meet Peggy Hutcheson (The Odyssey Group), who along with a colleague, eagerly agreed to help me build a Law Department where employees could thrive. I was committed to improving both the performance and the work experience of the staff in the Law Department; and Peggy was unrelenting in her desire to see our work environment improve, have employees’ concerns addressed, build a team in which each member understood that he or she had a role to play in making things work, and create a place where work was fun and fulfilling. When I left the City Attorney position in December 2006, the Department had become a city department that is respected both internally in the City and externally in the community. It is a place where individuals are supported and developed and can have a rewarding work experience. Those changes would not have happened without Peggy’s expertise and passion for what she does."
