Despite best intentions, organizations and teams of all shapes and sizes often suffer from projects that are mismanaged, teams that are ineffective, and sub-par collaboration…which leads to uninspired products, unhappy customers, and a negative impact on the bottom line. These challenges are often symptoms of two bigger issues issues: Lack of clarity and alignment around (1) what the group values and (2) how to practice those values together.
