Discover Behavioral Strategy

 

All business performance is driven by employee behavior—what they say and do. Whether it is about leadership, culture, strategy, operational excellence, safety, quality, or innovation, behavior is a critical success factor!

Improving performance and driving change requires leaders & employees to do things more often or differently than before.

Our method for Behavioral Strategy is based on proven scientific principles and provides a hands-on approach to day-to-day business operations.

— Creating environments where people excel

Organizational and employee performance can be best improved if you positively influence behavior. At the same time, systems and processes need to support critical success behaviors.

Our method, also known as Organizational Behavior Management, is a practical approach to bringing out the best in people. It's based on the science of Applied Behavior Analysis and has a proven track record in successful companies worldwide.

OBM Academy partners with National Investments Company

January 28, 2026 – Our OBM Academy has entered into a partnership with National Investments Company (NIC) in Kuwait. Grounded in Organizational Behavior Management (OBM), the collaboration focuses on positively influencing workplace behavior, turning intention into action, and translating strategy into measurable results.

The partnership was formally launched at NIC's headquarters in Kuwait City with the first series of training sessions for the Human Capital Division. Participants were introduced to the scientific principles of OBM and learned how behavior can be pinpointed, analyzed, and systematically influenced to improve performance across the organization.

The initiative marks the first step in embedding evidence-based behavioral science across the organization.

Bringing behavioral science into operational auditing

September 12, 2025 -  We recently collaborated with the Central Government Audit Service of the Netherlands (Auditdienst Rijk) to introduce behavioral science to operational auditors through a workshop delivered by our OBM Academy. During the session, participants explored how behavioral science can complement traditional audit approaches by strengthening the actionability of audit findings and supporting measurable, sustainable improvement. We also discussed how OBM can be applied during audit engagements, enabling organizations to implement improvements before an audit is completed.

In addition to the workshop, we are currently supporting the practical application of OBM within operational audits, exploring how behavioral science can strengthen both audit practice and organizational performance. This collaboration reflects the growing role of behavioral science in operational auditing and its potential to strengthen public sector performance.
