When is a team not a team? This sounds like the start of a bad joke, but despite its seemingly whimsical nature, it actually poses a fundamental challenge to some of the most successful modern management dynamics that have been used. For example, there is a good deal of pejorative talk about a “silo mentality.” Who reading this would put their hands up in a meeting of their bosses, if asked if they worked in a silo? And yet working as part of a close-knit group of people, who trust each other implicitly and have each others’ back, would be regarded by many as a huge plus point. And if you worked as part of a secret organization, skunkworks or other special unit, working in a silo would be positively encouraged.
This paper provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world’s leading organizations.
The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
