Globaliser
“Bringing companies together for powerful global performance”
Globaliser
A truly extraordinary and enjoyable programme.
Globaliser aims to explore and solve the difficulties, issues, misunderstandings and complexity of international teamwork, cross cultural communication, cultural diversity, creativity innovation and performance.
In short – living a company’s values in a fast paced international business.
The process:
-
Globaliser starts with a vibrant and powerful 30-minute drama performance, simulating a professional global company in full function…and dysfunction!
-
The delegates are then asked to act as consultants to this imaginary company, which involves interviewing the characters and helping them solve problems, by coming up with a series of consultancy recommendations and solutions in time to meet a pressing client deadline.
-
Scenes from the play are re-enacted (spontaneously) to incorporate the conference delegates’ feedback, coaching, and consultancy recommendations to extrapolate strategic logical/interpersonal outcomes and to see what happens next.
-
Experienced business facilitators and consultants take the delegates through the whole process of thinking, analysing, exploring and living the values in action, with tangible and visible results!
What comes out of it all?
The script is selected to create situations, interactions and conflicts that the group would be able to apply to a joint company mission, and a clear set of values (your values and competencies) to apply to their working lives. That way, everyone knows what is expected of them in terms of priorities, behaviour and attitudes in the workplace. It allows everyone to have a chance of being successful in the most pressured and complicated of business environments.
All the situations in the script highlight the need for the following values and competencies. We can also include your own, and tailor to meet your specific needs/situations/challenges:
-
Client focus
-
Trust
-
Innovation
-
Teamwork
-
Results orientation
-
Cultural sensitivity
-
Communication
-
Ability to leverage differences to competitive advantage.
