Pensamiento dilemático
La reconciliación del dilema es la metodología que está en el centro de todo lo que hacemos. Implica un cambio de mentalidad, que puede parecer un poco contraintuitivo para los occidentales, normalmente acostumbrados a modelos bipolares.
Our “best of both” approach combines the opposites with "AND".
Los principales beneficios de conciliar dilemas son encontrar los principales bloqueadores del rendimiento formulando las preguntas adecuadas, una resolución de problemas más precisa y unas soluciones innovadoras superiores que funcionen en todas las culturas.
4 Organizational Cultures
Over the years, we found out that every organization has a preferred way of operating across cultures, influenced by two main parameters, summarized in the following questions: Is the focus of what we do more on tasks or people? Do we operate in a more egalitarian or hierarchical way? This enables us to define four categorical types of corporate culture. Each of these types of corporate culture is an “ideal type”: it cannot be found 100% in practice, but it shows the preference that one has and gives us guidance on how we think and learn, how we change, and how we motivate, reward, and resolve conflicts.
