A team, department or project pursuing a common goal yet having opposing interests. Sound familiar? It is quite normal and yet we see with our clients that it causes problems. It often leads to a team being less effective than desired, all the more so because the team becomes divided on how to address issues that are facing the organization. This happens despite being hard-working, motivated employees. So how do you ensure that in such a situation the team is and remains “aligned”? That’s where Group Model Building (GMB) can help.
In this case study you can read how we used GMB to create more alignment for one of our clients. This project was all about employees not only knowing the goals, but also living through them so that you act uniformly as a project team. This creates more effectiveness and efficiency. While this may seem simple at first glance, goals of a project can change along the way. In this project, for example, it was apparent that success led to the scope expanding. After all, when a project team gets things right, more people want them to pick things up for them. This soon applies to more projects. How Supply Value helped with that, you will read in the case study.
First follows a brief explanation of the method, followed by practical application. This explains a number of things to consider when using GMB and explains when you can use GMB.
