ORGANIC INTEGRATION
The Insight Growth System for Accelerating Growth
Organic Integration:
Your DNA’s Growth Ecosystem
Embrace Constant Evolution with Unwavering Alignment
Organizations and communities are living, breathing entities, constantly evolving in a world of relentless change. People and technology—dynamic and unpredictable—can propel innovation, ignite urgency, and drive transformative growth. Yet, without alignment, these forces risk creating complacency, redundancy, chaos, and confusion, stalling even the most ambitious initiatives.
Leaders need a proven framework to navigate this complexity—one that empowers rapid adaptation, seamless execution, and sustainable strategy while staying true to their organization’s unique DNA. At Insight Strategic Concepts, we deliver that framework through Organic Integration, aligning your vision, strategy, talent, and processes to accelerate growth and unlock your competitive edge.

PASSION
Leadership
Passion is the lifeblood of the organization. Places with people who have passion take in more air and have more energy. You can feel it. When everyone working in an organization or community has a passion for what they do, synergy emerges, and amazing inventions and solutions start to emerge. This energy and focus is set by leadership.

STRATEGY
Growth Plan
Strategy captures the external plan for growth with customers via the products and services offered. Strategy must be aligned with the higher purpose of vision, mission, values, and measurable objectives. Strategy begins with market research that targets products and services to specific customer needs. The strategic framework of established goals, objectives, strategies, and tactics that guide action plans for implementation and measures for success.

COLLABORATION
Team
Collaboration doesn’t compromise. The organization designs the structure it needs to execute its strategy, and team members are assigned roles that align with their talents and skills. Collaboration is a win-win when roles are aligned to strategic requirements, and this integration is understood by the whole team, who become obsessed with executing the plan and gaining the rewards.

PROCESS
Experience
Process and accountability activities add energy to the speed of growth. Process is the discipline required to refine the tasks and steps necessary to implement strategies, remove redundancy, and make work easier. Streamlining process steps, tracking accountability metrics, and effectively utilizing technology to share meaningful analysis are activities that accelerate work and growth.

OI Is A Creative Endeavor
Over the years, we have continued to develop specific practices designed to align and integrate passion, strategy, collaboration, and process. We have found that focusing on this integration always leads to accelerated growth and greater fulfillment. It's physics!
We believe the quest to achieve continuous Organic Integration fundamentally redefines the active role of leadership -- from being less like Maverick as a fighter pilot to being more like Neo or Trinity in the Matrix.
How? Running our lives, organizations, and communities is about being as human as possible while productively integrating technological advancements into our lives. Those leaders who are best at making choices to achieve Organic Integration perform most effectively in advancing and winning in today's dynamic and global environment.
Thus, leaders accomplishing Organic Integration must be creative and highly skilled at the discipline of aligning these elements together at the same time:
Understanding people and their passions and talents
Morphing multiple flexible strategies, repositioning resources, and quickly interpreting objective information
Designing teams to have synergy
Building elegant processes and supporting technologies for delivering work efficiently for an optimized customer experience
Using execution tools as needed to ensure the team is skilled to implement
Doing it all while intuitively following instincts to shift as needed to maintain or adapt the alignment required for continuous growth
These skills develop with time, and the more you practice, the better and faster you become.
Consequently, there is no right way or solution to integrate an organization or community organically. It is a series of creative acts that must support the unique DNA of an organization while being performed by the distinct natural talents of its leaders. These actions must be built around a solid yet flexible strategy for directing everyone’s energy in any one moment.
Organic Integration is the goal. The Insight Growth System provides the elements for leaders to achieve it.
Organic Integration Leadership
People Intentionally Lead OI
People ultimately choose whether to be motivated or not. They also control the energy required to achieve growth.
The faster pace of change today inevitably enforces some technology requirements into this creative process, such as:
Using analytics, performance dashboards, and scorecards
Routinely engaging new technologies -- all of which are at our fingertips -- ready to share all aspects of our people, organizations, industries, and communities (and yes, provide it all as we sleep).
Yet, there's much more to it than just the logical technical stuff.
Leaders must know how to quickly access the correct information and adapt relevant strategies while being connected to the emotional performance of themselves and their people.
Those leaders who excel at Organic Integration intentionally develop and fully engage their emotional, instinctual, and critical thinking talents and skills.
They process complex information and can consciously relate to and connect with the individual and collective needs of people.
OI Is A Quest for Relevancy and Growth
Organic Integration clarifies the connections people need to see for an organization to be relevant to their energy use.
When these connections are acted upon, a stickiness is achieved that binds people to their work. As this connection builds on the energy of others, velocity increases, and the momentum for growth is achieved.
So, what does Organic Integration look like in your organization or community?
It is a creative system led by leadership that aligns and unites people to make a unique difference in their community.
"Unfortunately, no one can be told what their Matrix is. You (leaders) have to (do the work and) see it for yourself."
