An Exercise When working with Teams
In general, when an organization asks us to work for them, let’s say, in something intangible such as team values, we expect the two-day exercise to conclude with a series of phrases, full of unspecific verbs and nominalizations; in my opinion, the exercise ends up being a good wish list we like to call values/principles and we want them to rule the team destiny.
Last week, I met with a team of directors; it was a team of nine who were just starting to get to know each other. They had different educational backgrounds and they were part of a company who is trying to create organizational culture change.
On the first day, they worked with a colleague of mine who is a consultant; he took them mountain climbing, trying to create more familiarity and after that, he facilitated the process of writing the values of the company.
