Meet SEER: A UW–Madison Resource for More Effective Human-Centered Teams and Organizational Change

SEER is an acronym that stands for the four key actions in its change-taming operating process:

  • See projects with a human, organizational, and systems lens.
  • Enact planning-informed and collaborative actions.
  • Evaluate the success of actions and interventions.
  • Revisit goals, actions, and evaluation strategies.

SEER’s central premise is that individuals are the most important element in all organizations, with unique backgrounds, experiences, connections, and perspectives that inevitably influence their attitudes and behaviors in navigating systems, organizational change, and strategic operations.
