The organization places customers at the center, and works collaboratively in the work required to do so.
In organizations that have realized empowerment, the members are linked through trust, where they are encouraged to have a fluid exchange of opinions, and to not fear failure. In order to maximize the value provided to customers, they continuously work on improving performance, so they can reach ever higher levels of productivity, as a team.
Supporting the creation of relationships promoting collaboration
In order to become a high performance team, there is a need to have each individual have a sense of being able to comfortably communicate, feeling they are accepted by the team, where there is mutual trust and respect. In order to do so, we will nourish members so they have a greater understanding of each other, and have a safe organization, where they can hold open discussions.
Collaborative learning: Learn from each other’s experiences
Through holding a dialogue with the Team concerning the theme, there is support for mutual learning and growth. Based on the gross mindset, and not only successful cases, the learnings of the Team will be more significant through disclosing failure cases and their learnings.
