Are You A Team?
Or Just A Group Of People Working Together?

A founder’s spirit is often lost over time and growth through M&A can result in a fragmented “Frankenstein” of stitched together organizations.

How can a group of people become a real team?

How can organizations with thousands of people in dozens of countries maintain a strong sense of a shared identity and commitment to shared goals?

By leveraging the roots of their greatness, their organization’s DNA and shared organizational culture – as invisible as the air we breathe, as inescapable as gravity, and more powerful than any Gantt chart.

Leverage the power of your culture in your next project team!

Participants will:

• Understand the power of an organization’s past to shape its future.
• Appreciate the influence that organization culture has on behavior and results.
• Have access to 3 ways of exploring and deepening a team’s shared sense of history and organizational culture.
• Realize that an organization’s culture can be made visible through sharing stories and other practical exercises.
• Be equipped to install the foundation of a shared organizational cultural required to turn a globally dispersed group of people into a real team, with a shared identity and commitment to a future that is bigger than their differences.
