group success
Creativity and Team Culture: No more competition. We’re all in this together. Foster collaboration, creativity, and authentic team engagement. Look across the compass to Individual Success for the balance to this section.
the elusive creative culture
Culture understanding that doesn’t make it to your desktop. How we understand teamwork through cultural implications.
“Cause we’re the party people… live your life off the wall”

breaking out of your shell
No, this is not an extrovert-introvert discussion, though it can feel that way. We create our own world by withdrawing into a shell or behind walls. Break down the barriers of feeling put-down at work and find the balance between being protected by walls or… just walled-off.
If you feel supported in your work environment, then you feel free to create in the manner that suits you best.
team culture
Team culture is a hot topic, but it’s an age-old relating experience of learning how to relate to others, which can feel gnarly.
Here is the description from my book:
DIRECTIONAL COMPASS RELATING
west provides us with a future outlook
The sun sets in the west, bringing us thoughts of an ending that is also a beginning. West is aligned with metal, as in the cultural awareness that we all support each other through our individual actions that show our true grit, or mettle. A play on words, perhaps, but we all know words have power, so bring yours in through shining brightly while extending your work out into the collective. Metal can be reflective, bouncing your ideas off each other and having fun in the moment, year to year, or for a life time.
It’s up to you to know when to jump!
