Unleashing Growth with Organizational ReWilding: A Comprehensive Yet Flexible Framework

As a small business owner, transforming your operations can feel daunting, especially with a complex framework. Organizational ReWilding offers a solution with its 11 Elements of an Exceptional Business, designed to foster growth, resilience, and adaptability. Its comprehensive scope and flexible, staged approach mean you can see results without tackling all 11 Elements at once—a practical approach for businesses of any size.

Comprehensive and Adaptable: The 11 Elements of an Exceptional Business

The Organizational ReWilding framework, developed by The ReWild Group, is built on 11 interconnected Elements: One-to-One Process, Brand & Core Values, Strong Management Team, Interdepartmental Planning, Business Development Structure, Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), Organizational Structure, Master Processes, Meeting Structure, Business Model, and Business Growth Framework. Together, these Elements create a holistic blueprint for sustainable growth, addressing everything from leadership and culture to systems and strategy.

What sets Organizational ReWilding apart is its adaptability. Not all Elements apply to every business at every stage. For instance, a small business in its early stages (e.g., Stage 1 with 1-10 employees) might focus on Brand & Core Values to define its identity or Business Model to establish a scalable foundation. Meanwhile, Interdepartmental Planning, which aligns resources across departments, is only relevant for larger businesses (typically Stage 5 or higher, with 58+ employees) with distinct departments. This ensures you focus on what’s critical for your business’s current needs.

Start Small, See Results Fast

ReWilding’s strength lies in delivering immediate results without requiring a complete overhaul. Instead of implementing all 11 Elements simultaneously, you start with the highest-priority Element for your business. For example, if inconsistent communication is a challenge, the One-to-One Process can establish clear, consistent employee check-ins. If growth is stalled, the Business Development Structure can create a robust sales strategy.

Incorporating a single Element typically takes about two months, though this varies depending on the Element and your business’s size. During this time, you’ll see tangible benefits almost immediately—think improved team alignment with Brand & Core Values, streamlined operations via Master Processes, or better decision-making through KPIs. These early wins, often delivering a 200%+ return on investment from the first session, build momentum, making it easier to tackle the next priority Element.

Tailored to Your Stage

The ReWilding framework aligns with the Seven Stages of Growth, which categorize businesses by employee count and unique challenges. This ensures you only focus on Elements relevant to your current Stage:

• Stage 2 (11-19 employees): Hiring quality people is a common issue. Prioritizing Brand & Core Values can help attract the right people, while Business Model supports scalable growth.

• Stage 4 (35-57 employees): Weak project management often surfaces, making Master Processes essential for creating scalable systems.

• Stage 6 (96-160 employees): Interdepartmental Planning becomes critical to align departments and optimize resources.

Smaller businesses can skip advanced Elements like Interdepartmental Planning or Business Growth Framework until they reach later Stages, reducing overwhelm and focusing effort on high-impact areas.

Why It Works

Organizational ReWilding balances long-term vision with short-term wins. Its 11 Elements cover the full spectrum of business needs, but the prioritized, staged approach lets you start small and scale as you grow. Immediate benefits—often felt within the first two months—include improved clarity from Organizational Structure, enhanced accountability via the One-to-One Process, or increased profitability through a refined Business Model. Backed by over 30 years of research across 1,500+ businesses, ReWilding’s proven rules for growth help you shortcut the learning curve.

For small business owners, ReWilding is a lifeline. You don’t need to overhaul everything at once. By focusing on one Element at a time—starting with high-priority needs like KPIs or Organizational Structure—you’ll see immediate results that fuel momentum for the next step. With Organizational ReWilding, you’re not just surviving—you’re building an exceptional, resilient business, one Element at a time.
