Developing great organisations ...
 ... in a sea of change

The Magus Toolbox currently comprises four ‘discovery and change’ products.  Each consists of a software tool, with its own associated application methodologies.  The most powerful product in the Toolbox is Magus Networker.  The other three products are commonly used as part of the front end of the Magus Networker process for resolving organisational performance problems, generally including the facilitation of a change process within the client organisation.  All four of the products may, however, be used independently of each other.

A brief overview of each of the four discovery and change products is given below.  For more information, please visit the pages describing each product individually.  Please click on the graphics to navigate to the product page required.

Networker_logoSM_JP

Magus Networker ~ works by illuminating otherwise-hidden informal networks through which work actually gets done and how value is created for customers.

  • Informal networks operate across formal boundaries and reach outside the organisation - to strategic business partners and beyond
  • Informal networks enable innovation - for problem solving, productivity gains and new, added-value processes
  • Networker stimulates open dialogue about the causes of organisational problems and actions needed.
  • Networker leads to healthy change processes - without the need for top down, formal change programmes.

Indexer_logoSM_DB

Magus Indexer ~ uses a thoroughly researched model of organisational resilience.  Resilient organisations adapt to a constantly changing environment.  They achieve a good balance between the need to execute in the short term while developing and changing to ensure longer term survival and growth.

  • Indexer is fast - changes begin with days, not weeks or months
  • Indexer comes complete with a diagnostic tool to facilitate the search for causes and developmental actions
  • Indexer is designed to be used over time to track progress and support ongoing change

scanner_logoSM_DB

Magus Scanner ~ high-performing organisations need high levels of coherence - that means agreement about how resources are aligned behind the strategy; the strategic priorities being tackled; the organisational issues that critically need attention - and what is being done to resolve them.

  • Scanner measures both organisational coherence and reports ‘organisational permissions’ that can support or inhibit high performance
  • Scanner comes complete with two diagnostic tools to facilitate the search for causes and developmental actions

TeamBuilder LogoSM_DB

Magus TeamBuilder ~ uses extensive research into how effective teams are developed and sustained.  It covers structural issues as well as team leadership, using the deep leadership model.  Critically, it assesses the organisational context in which teams are operating, so that this can be transformed into an enabling environment.

  • Assesses underlying causes as well as team internal issues
  • It comes complete with its own diagnostic tool to facilitate the search for root causes and developmental actions
  • It works for formal teams, project teams and even virtual teams
  • The developmental process is fast and action-oriented
