ISSUE/BACKGROUND:
body
RTA is requiring the continuous improvement needed for developing strategies and resources as it pertains to leadership and change management. The initial contract sought services for (1) developing change management strategies associated with creating a training pipeline for supervisors to mid-level managers and (2) implementing an internal leadership academy to prepare employees for future leadership opportunities within RTA and (3) developing change management strategies for executives to incorporate into daily operations and work plans. The change order address continued leadership activities that include Project Management and Planning, Retreat Facilitation and Support, Senior Leadership Team Strategic Planning, 2023 Goal Setting, and RTA Operators Attendance and Safety Program Implementation.
end
DISCUSSION:
As the RTA forges ahead with its decision to transition from delegated management to direct management led by the agency staff, the organization has accomplished several significant initiatives that are positioned for long-term success. Most recently the RTA successfully developed its RTA LEAD Program (Leadership Development Academy to provide strategic and operational training for middle to senior leaders throughout the agency) and its Organizational Change Management program that delivered two successful pilots to improve Operator’s Attendance and the RTA’s Safety Culture.
To ensure these and many other successes in 2023 and beyond, the RTA need to solidify its strategic intents and create a practical plan for accomplishing them. The RTA believes that strategic planning is an organization’s process of defining its strategy, or direction, for the next 3-5 years, and making decisions on how it will allocate its resources to pursue this chosen strategy.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The initial contract amount was $270,000, Resolution 22-022. The change order increase is $179,220.00, which brings the total to $449,220 which is budgeted for 2023.
NEXT STEPS:
Move to the implementation phase.
