Case study: Helping a team in conflict
The situation was one of a clash of approaches. The manager, a direct man with a track record of succeeding through direct communication in difficult parts of the world. The team, broadly Scandinavian, struggling with difficult market conditions and also valuing their participative and consensual approach. The result – one thing led to another, mutterings in the corridor turned towards outright complaint, and it seemed as if something had to give. The trade unions got involved and European HR heads began to think seriously about what to do.
Fortunately, someone thought about SF as a way of building progress in tough situations and got in touch with Mark. Some preparation led to a one-day workshop with everybody involved. With his usual combination of holding possibilities and a delicate touch, conclusions were reached that everyone wanted to carry out, and they all agreed to go on together. Even six months later, the progress continued.
The team manager wrote afterwards to say:
“On behalf of the team, I would like to thank you for an exceptional day. It does not happen often that one can really sense the energy in a room. That was clearly the case during our Team Day. Your contribution was very important in bringing us all to this new level.”
The European HR director, who was also present, said:
“A very practical team workshop – the right flow of exercises leading to personal commitments, plenty of variety and mixing, good contact with the group beforehand, just the right amount of time taken. Thank you once more for your help and inspiration for me!
