How We Work for You: Methods & Principles
Yogi Berra, the great baseball catcher and coach, said: "If we don't know where we're going, we may not get there."
Here at Anselm Group, we also believe this: "If your people can't work together, you'll never get there." That's true no matter how brilliant your strategy or business model. No matter how many experienced and talented folks are on the payroll. If you can't get those people to work together in an effective, productive way, all that effort comes to naught. (Imagine a rowing team with the oars pointing in eight different directions.)
"Individual commitment to a group effort: that's what makes a team work, a company work, a society work, a civilization work." – Vince Lombardi
Let's be clear: We're not talking about walking in lockstep with no room for creative problem solving. Rather we're talking about "Alignment," which is the key to improved performance at multiple levels. When diverse people are committed to a common goal – when they trust each other and want to succeed together – amazing things will happen.
So how do you get there? It starts with diagnostics. We use objective, time-tested diagnostic tools from our strategic partner, Bartell & Bartell, to measure up to 30 different aspects of individual alignment and organizational culture, from commitment and stress to leadership trust and teamness.

This is done in complete confidentiality and no one is ever "put on the spot" in front of their co-workers. We've used these diagnostic tools in almost every type of situation and we know how to demonstrate their value to even the most skeptical audiences.

Next, we look at individual results in the context of the overall team. We look for patterns and common issues that may be hindering team commitment and performance. Lastly, we identify and recommend specific "intervention points" – group and individual actions that can help unleash the power of your team.
