Culture Unboxed: Tension as a Gateway to Organizational Transformation (Free Webinar)


April 17th, 2024 | 9-10am PST

Virtual | Free

Learn how to use tension as fuel for organizational transformation.

When it comes to organizational dynamics, tension behaves like a simmering pot – manageable when controlled but prone to escalation when left unattended.

Unchecked, this rising tension can boil over into a scalding hot mess of disengaged people, high employee turnover, and ideas that never get off the ground.

But what if you could harness this tension to drive organizational change?

By reframing tension as an agent of change, you can unlock incredible results that resonate throughout your team and all the way down to your organization’s bottom line.

Join Open Circle for this immersive 60-minute webinar, where you'll unlock the power of technical and adaptive tension and learn how to leverage it for sustainable organizational growth.

You will learn...

  • How to spot technical and adaptive tensions in your organization to identify areas for improvement.

  • How this tension plays a role in fostering a culture driven by innovation and rooted in teamwork.

  • How to promote adaptive capacity among your team members to nurture creative problem-solving and agile decision-making.

  • How tension affects your broader organizational ecosystem and how to apply that knowledge to cultivate a more resilient, adaptable workplace.

Open Circle optimizes company culture by changing how we relate to our work, team members, inner purpose, and organizations.

We see organizations as living, breathing ecosystems.

This fundamental belief challenges us to embrace change and tap into our ability to adapt.

It urges us to reject outdated paradigms and unlearn the traditional operating methods within these organizational ecosystems.

Culture Unboxed is a pragmatic approach to transitioning organizations to this new relationship with how we work together toward business missions.

It involves a radical new way of teaming that shifts leadership and followership to one more in alignment with natural ecosystem models.

Over the last six years, Open Circle has used this approach to create self-transforming organizations in various organizational structures, from startups to NGOs to networked organizations and traditional corporate hierarchies.
