What is an organizational ombuds?
According to the International Ombuds Association organizational ombuds work with individuals and groups in an organization to
- provide a safe space to talk about an issue or concern,
- explore options to help resolve conflicts, and,
- bring systemic concerns to the attention of the organization for resolution.
An organizational ombuds operates in a manner to preserve the confidentiality of those seeking services, maintains a neutral/impartial position with respect to the concerns raised, works at an informal level of the organizational system (compared to more formal channels that are available), and is independent of formal organizational structures.
A diversified service offering
The organizational ombuds community currently consists of 26 ombuds in 47 agencies or departments and continues to grow.
