Do you recognise any of these common challenges:

• Lots of energy is going into making your culture and impact the best it can be, but challenging interpersonal dynamics keep coming up that veer you off track?

• The same topics keep getting discussed in circular conversations?

• Frustration or stress is building due to untimely or unresolved decision making?

• Repeatedly getting stuck in decision making limbo, or not achieving the buy-in needed to proceed with decisions?

• There are a few people who generate all the ideas or action, without much engagement from others?

• People are not really speaking to one another, excuses, gossip, cliques, and/or postponement are common roadblocks to effectively communicating?

• There’s lots of staring and silence in meetings, and not much dialogue?
