Launch Consulting

Are your teams stuck in a rut? If so, you may be suffering from a lack of operational .

Honestly ask yourself the following questions:

1. Does everyone agree most of the time?

2. Do managers hire people who “do things exactly the way I do?”

3. Are we struggling to make progress on goals?

4. Do people occasionally operate outside of their comfort zones?

5. Are people rewarded for taking a different approach?

6. Is there freedom in how tasks are completed?

7. Is there a devil’s advocate?

If you answered “yes” to questions 1-3 and “no” to 4-7, then you likely have a diversity problem. Your team has an imbalanced approach to problem-solving and is crippling your organization. It may not be obvious right now, but the cumulative impact of a “cloned” team is stagnation.

How do you fix it?

👉 Train staff to be aware of the natural to hire those who “work like I do.” Also, hire people who offer a complementary approach.

👉Use objective assessments. There is only one way to assess a person’s instinctual problem-solving method, and that is the A™ Index.

👉Foster a diverse . Praise those who act as a devil’s advocate. Train your team to challenge traditional methods. And look for opportunities to reach the same result from a different angle.
