Subject: Scope for Town of Los Altos Hills Staff Organizational Assessment
Dear Peter,
Thank you for the opportunity to help you with your implementation of a Staff
Organizational Assessment for the Town of Los Altos Hills, CA. We believe this
assessment can help grow performance within the Town of Los Altos Hills as well as
create another differentiator for the town as it grows. Following is a summary of our
--scoping- discussion:
Objectives:
• Clarify and confirm the shared values that will be promoted within the staff.
• Based upon an organizational assessment, implement foundational operating system
elements for a high-performance culture based on the Town of Los Altos Hills values.
The Process:
Prework — Gathering information about the current state
Los Altos Hills will provide organization charts, key leadership contacts, and a working
understanding of the known challenges and opportunities for the site.
Each staff member will complete an on-line individual assessment —
The assessment contains three sections that will take about 40 minutes to complete. It
measures communication preferences, internal motivators, and other capabilities.
When each assessment is completed, a Bovo-Tighe representative will schedule a
telephone debrief with each staff member to go over their report, to gain further
perspective on current performance and opportunities.
Contact on-site leadership —
Telephone discussion to set the assessment parameters. Engage on-site leadership with an
understanding of the overall process and how it will work for their benefit.
BT will provide an editable introduction to the Staff Organization Assessment -
BT will provide a template and help the onsite Leadership Team develop an invitation
email for employees.
Assessment launch and data acquisition -
The employees will have approximately 2 weeks to complete the survey. Throughout that
time, BT will report back to the on-site leadership about levels of participation. We will

end the survey upon mutual agreement.
Analysis and reporting of the results -
BT will analyze the data, create a report covering key themes and important observations
as well as potential actions. The results will consist of a report for Los Altos Hills
showing the overall results, along with key observations about important areas for focus.
We will also produce a report for the staff employees which will include the same
information but may be briefer.
Formal reporting to the Town of Los Altos Hills leadership -
BT will meet with the Leadership Team to go over the results and potential responses.
We will mutually decide upon the communication and potential actions to review with
staff.
Off-site senior leadership discussion and action planning -
_- 0n_Friday,_De-cemb-er_1_0, 202.1,__B_T_will_meet with _the -Senior Leadership -Team -to go ----------
over the results and identify actions.
Review results with Staff—
Shortly after the December 10th Senior Leadership Team meeting, Bovo-Tighe will assist
the Senior Leaders in holding an on-line staff meeting to go over findings and resulting
action plans.
Investment:
The entire process described above, including the Los Altos .Hills leadership meetings,
individual staff assessments and telephone debriefs, analysis of the data, telephone
interviews, creation of the report for the senior leaders, report out meeting with the on-
site Leadership Team, and the incidental discussions around these key parts of the
process will be completed for an amount not to exceed $20,500.00 plus expenses, which
we anticipate being less than $3000. This investment also includes online follow-up
meetings with the Los Altos Hills leadership team to develop the next steps for the city.
No expenses will be incurred without prior authorization by Los Altos Hills leadership.
This investment reflects a non-profit client discount of $2,400.00.
This process is very flexible, and we will work together with you to make it simple and
highly time efficient
Thank you for the opportunity to help you with this important project,
Brooke
