Be responsible for our commitments and hold others accountable for theirs. Give and receive praise. Cross-functional teams work better. We get better results faster. A six-month project might take only three or four months now.
Collaboration builds trust.
Open-book companies like ours deal with issues of trust all the time. People want to know where the company's going and how it's going to get there. Training helps build trust because it helps create a safe place to introduce and develop new ideas. It creates a work environment where people feel valued. On a personal level, it's about getting focused.
