As business demands create the need to operate with more fluid structures, Leaders are increasingly building purpose-driven communities within their own organisations.

In the global context of challenging business environments and increasing technology, the more traditional ‘direct and dotted line’ reporting models are being broken down – forcing leaders to think beyond the concept of ‘teaming’. 

There is also the additional complexity of organisations still grappling with how to best work in the new world of hybrid.

Transformation initiatives which transcend functions and business units are also finding greater and more powerful traction by building a ‘rolling sense of community’. 

This approach allows and encourages people from different functions/areas ‘to come and go’ within the community and be valued for their contributions. 

It provides context for individuals and teams to better understand how their work impacts different parts of the organisation, while also providing an opportunity to learn about others.

The hidden treasure is the sense of energy created by a strong community. It provides a common purpose and a genuine feeling of belonging – all for a better business result.

… On a more seasonal note, we wish everyone the best for the holiday period and hope you can rejuvenate as much as possible for an exciting year ahead!
