Why is "collective intelligence" the key to succeed with a turnaround?
We have all seen it; all the traditional objective puzzle pieces seem to be in place for a successful turnaround: sufficient capital, committed owners and management, support from the financiers and a well thought through communication plan...
And still the turnaround fails.
TMA Sweden arranges an interesting discussion which will focus on how to build and leverage every company's key asset – its employees intelligence, insights and drive.
How do you, in a turnaround situation, and under pressure make – a probably already tired organization – more efficient and effective? How do successful companies build on collective intelligence to drive new behaviours and reach desired goals.
