BREAK SILOS -
IMPLEMENT A COLLABORATIVE SPIRIT

THE PROBLEM:
SILO STRUCTURES

One of the main problems in todays organisations is the tendency of teams to cultivate silos.
Instead of building and maintaining open, cross-functional networks that reach across the entire organisation and beyond, teams develop „gated communities“, reducing connectivity to a minimum.

The result is a loss of dynamic, a low level of agility and a reduced capacity to master challenges.
Instead of building open networks, your people build closed tribes.

DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR TO YOU?

According to studies, 41% of the global workforce are considering resigning from their current roles.
Money and the promise of promotion aren’t keeping them there.
After two years of remote work, many employees don’t want to work in an office
or they’re resigning all together.

Here’s what’s going on.

• SILO EFFECT:
Lack of communication and shared goals between people and departments leading to doubled work, communication breakdown and long, inefficient meetings

• RECRUITMENT ISSUES:
Finding and retaining high-performing employees

• GROUP THINK:
Disagreements and challenges are discouraged,
everyone follows the leader, which results in lack of innovation and progress

• THE GREAT RESIGNATION:
People unwilling to return to the workplace, which leads to employee attrition and brain drain

• LACK OF COLLABORATION:
Employees experience goal uncertainty, lack of trustful work relationships and separate,
opposing agendas

THE SOLUTION:
A CROSS-FUNCTIONAL COLLABORATIVE MINDSET

To break these silos, you have to train your teams to open up and connect.

You have to teach them how to build new internal and external networks
But you can’t force them. You’ll have to inspire them.

This is why 17ACADEMY uses entertaining podcast formats.
With expert talks and masterclasses we transmit practical knowhow right into your colleagues‘ brains.

Using this method, you will see a new collaborative spirit growing in 3-6 months…
and new networks evolve around your organisation.

We work with the very best, which is why spots are limited to 3 programs a year.

That way our clients receive individual attention and guidance.
In turn, our clients commit to investing the necessary time and energy to complete the program. This mutual commitment allows us to produce tangible and sustainable results for everybody.

Can you invest the resources?

If you aren’t at least as invested in your success as we are, your company won’t change.
We like to work with clients who commit to the program fully and allocate the necessary resources to it.

Are you coachable?

We select companies based on their potential for change
because we want you to be able to reach your goals.
Only people willing to change are able to change. That is who we work with.

Let’s talk:

In a first-free-consultation a decision maker at your company and a member of 17Academy will have a chance to speak about your goals and those of the program to decide whether or not we’re a perfect match. Just write to us to schedule your appointment.
