Leveraging technology to build community alignment.
October 26, 2010
What we want isn’t always what we need.
Agreeing on what to get is even harder.
Harmony is hard.
Organizational alignment is one of the greatest challenges that leaders face today.
Every group, community, business, non-profit, and organization can benefit from greater
alignment.
Each person offers perspective.
Sometimes the best ideas can be overlooked.
Quality must be cultivated.
Every group of people working together to achieve a
common goal must understand their shared objective.
Your team is on a shared journey – but
does everyone agree on the
destination?
Without planning, the adventure might end prematurely.
Can your organization afford to make mistakes?
Planning the expedition builds excitement and team spirit.
The process produces tangible deliverables – solid business,
financial, marketing, or opportunity plans – that drive best
decisions and produce the basis of strategic alignment.
your destination?
Challenges can be deceiving…
Opportunities
can be disguised.
The Totem LABS process uncovers hidden
strengths and development opportunities within
every team member. This leads to direct action,
mutual accountability and clear communication.
Change is a constant.
By using open-source technology, we leverage your ability to
constantly adapt to shifting expectations. Your group becomes
better prepared to engage in the daily interactions that drive
your team’s internal and external relationships.
The Process Begins at Base Camp
We help your group create a comprehensive
assessment – a snapshot of where you’re at today.
…Travels on the Path…
We build the requirements for the future –group exercises and
activities that compose your custom plan while building team
spirit.The process is fun, rewarding, and exciting – just like a game.
…and Ends at the Summit.
The final stretch is the hardest – putting the newly-
learned information into action. Implementing new
behaviors is hard, but the process ensures shared
accountability, support, and respect.
Your Community:
Defined & Expressed
Learning, growing, and developing together strengthens the
sense of community felt within your group.
Strong communities do great things.
Your team is your creation.
Totem LABS helps catalyze your evolution.
