Cooperation

Organizations encouraging modern, informal structures, decentralization, open lines of communication, fast and open access to information and heterogeneous teams, experience greater levels of responsibility and engagement from their employees. The “synergetic pull” across departments, specialties and know-how enables the organization to gain a competitive edge in the market place.

The IAK Focus:

• Collaboration practices and team competence
• Valuing individuals, diversity and integration mindfulness
• Trust, transparency and a positive pro-active response to conflict
• Co-accountability and commitment towards the collective
• Identification with the “we” and the goals of the corporate family

We provide a rich arsenal of diagnostic tools and building blocks for innovation and creative idea development. The tools are custom designed to address the specific needs and expectations of the participants.
