Scaling Up Purposefully

How do we upscale organisations, increase impact and stay true to our organisational purpose?

You are invited to an intensive workshop to explore the new ways of thinking and collaborating that will help you align your organisational purpose with leadership, growth, and external relationship management in order to grow organically and scale your impact.

Why are we organising this workshop?

At Teal for Teal we have identified a performance gap between the technologies we have available nowadays and the skills we have as companies and communities to organise ourselves. Our focus on profit as the only measure of impact and success has lead us to organise in a way that mainly creates value for business owners.

One of the ways to close that gap is through building capacity for entrepreneurs to redefine the purpose of their business in a way that business processes are aligned with it and employees self-organise to create more value for all stakeholders.

In this intensive one-day workshop we will introduce you to a framework that helps organisations stay focused on their purpose. We will be creating space to learn, work together and co-create in a way that helps your business scale while staying agile and innovative.

We will collaboratively explore together the following questions:

• What is an organisation with an evolutionary purpose?

• How could we engage people around the shared purpose we have? And how could we discover our organisational purpose bottom up?

• How do we design the organisational structure in a way that responds to this purpose and stay connected to it as we grow as an organisation instead of falling into familiar hierarchical structures and management practices that don’t always serve it? (self-organisation basics)

• How do we expand beyond the borders of the organisation to engage partners, customers, suppliers and so on through meaningful relationships in order to build an ecosystem around our organisational purpose?
