Unlock Peak Performance
|
Cultura and Haworth focus on understanding company cultures when designing and furnishing places where people love to work. Research shows there are four collaborative modes related to organizational culture types. When we understand our teams’ collaborative modes, we can help determine the best work spaces and tools they need for day-to-day work. For high-performing teams, each collaborative mode will likely occur to some extent, but every team will also have a core sub-culture—a core collaborative mode—that is integral to
their success. Inform: This is the preferred collaborative mode for a Control culture, which is hierarchical in nature. Do: Members of a Compete culture, who are driven to complete tasks quickly, thrive in this mode. Think: Teams who focus on big ideas and are part of a Create culture. Connect: A mode for a Collaborate culture and those who rely on group work.
