So: if you know these old tribal laws, you can prepare your team for the future. In this programme Jitkse Kramer takes you on an anthropological excur-sion through tribal laws and their direct relevance to your team. Surpri-sing and very applicable!

TRACK #2: LEADERSHIP

SUMMARYIn every culture there is power, status and leadership. This is also true for your team. Leaders are important, and we need them. But what is the best way to shape leadership?

YOU GET• Tools to give space to all the different views in your

organisation. • Insight into your own sabotage behaviour (because

everyone sabotages from time to time) • A nice tool that invites you to face (difficult)

conversation.

“DO” ASSIGNMENT A thrilling “ranking” exercise.

TRACK #3: INTERACTION AND DECISION-MAKING

SUMMARYInteractions between people and the resulting decision-making are the underpinnings of a culture. But who takes the lead and decides what is right or wrong? These are crucial aspects of team dynamics.

YOU LEARN • How to optimise the interaction between all

perspectives. • The importance of the right mix between debate

and dialogue. • Thinking differently. Why not: ‘maximum 70%

men’?

YOU GET• Tips on how to facilitate the conversation and

create the right setting. • Tools for an uncomfortable conversation. • The story of the king who took a management

course.

“DO” ASSIGNMENT The campfire conversation.

‘ DIVERSITY IS ABOUT BEING INVITED TO THE PARTY...

...inclusion is being asked to join and dance’.

YOU GET• Clear explanation of fragmentation and inclusion. • Tips for discussing differences. • Assignments to get outside your comfort zone.

“DO” ASSIGNMENTSPractice ‘the art of good conversation’. Exciting!

TRACK #5: CHAOS IS PART OF IT

SUMMARYHow do you react to changes in your environment? Do you easily experience something as chaotic, or perhaps it isn’t so bad? This depends, amongst other things, on the effectiveness of your coping strategy. Fortunately, you may have more influence than you might think.

YOU LEARN• The space you need for a good conversation. • How much influence you really have and how to

use it to your advantage. • Why you should not resolve chaos too quickly.

YOU GET• A confrontational video that shows how fast chan-ges can occur. • Tips on how to use the full potential of a group. • A step-by-step plan to tackle change sustainably.

“AS FAR AS I AM CONCERNED, OR-GANISATIONS OF THE FUTURE ARE AGILE, DIVERSE AND SUSTAINA-BLE”

TRACK #6: DEALING WITH CHANGE

SUMMARYChanges are about dealing with the transition to a new situation. Rituals help you with this. In this track you will discover that you already use more rituals than you think, and which rituals really help with change.

YOU LEARN• Different types of cultural changes and their implications. • The importance of different types of leadership surrounding (radical) changes. • How rituals precisely work and when they can best be used.

YOU GET• A nice example of a Filipino ritual. • Self-insight into what helps you in the transition to a new situation. • Tools to create your own ritual.

TRACK #7: YOUR TRIBE

SUMMARYEvery group, every tribe, all over the world, has certain roles that must always be fulfilled. It is also important that these roles exist in an organisation. In this last track you will discover the anatomy of your team and the tribal role you play in it.

YOU LEARN• What exactly are tribal roles. • Why it is important that all roles exist within an

organisation. • What happens when the roles are not fulfilled

properly.
