Organizational
Health Check
A structured assessment that reveals misalignment and delivers a clear roadmap to realign people, structure, and strategy.
What is an Organizational Health Check?
Propeller's Organizational Health Check is a focused, 6–9 week assessment designed to give leaders clarity on how well their people and structure align to strategy. We combine our organizational design expertise with Orgvue analytics to diagnose risks, inefficiencies, and opportunities.
At the end of the engagement, you’ll receive a
tailored Health Check report, an executive readout, and a roadmap with
actionable recommendations to move forward.
Why It Matters: Healthy Organizations Outperform
Even the strongest organizations drift out of alignment. While misalignment isn’t always visible, its impacts are. Left unchecked, it slows decisions, drains resources, and erodes performance. Companies that regularly assess and realign adapt faster and consistently outperform peers.

Signs Your Organization May Be Misaligned
Misalignment often hides in plain sight. If these challenges feel familiar, it may be time for a Health Check.
Cross-Functional Tension & Priority Conflict
Competing priorities are pulling teams in different directions. When decision rights are unclear, work becomes fragmented, duplicated, and harder to move forward.
Rising Turnover
Burnout and attrition are climbing. When roles are poorly designed and managers are stretched too thin, employees are left without clear development paths to keep them engaged.
Inaccessible Leaders
Decision-making is slowing down because leaders are hard to reach. Too many layers — or too many direct reports — are diluting support and leaving employees without guidance.
Missed Targets
Consistently missing goals or only achieving them at a higher cost than expected signals deeper inefficiencies in how teams and resources are structured.
