Building Succesful Teams and Companies
“The ability to learn faster than your competitors may be the only sustainable advantage”
Arie De Geus, head planner Royal Dutch Shell
This seminar is based upon the ground breaking work of Dr. Peter Senge of MIT in the USA. Dominic Fischer has worked theoretically and practically with these ideas since 1989.
The concept behind Peak Performances is this:
Building teams and organizations where people continually expand their capacity to create the results they truly desire, where new and expansive patterns of thinking are nurtured, where collective aspirations are set free, and where people are continually learning how to learn together.
This is done through the mastery of five disciplines: systems thinking, personal mastery, shared vision, mental models and team learning. These disciplines must be integrated into the working life of each person in the team or company. Then organizations will be able to excel because they will discover how to tap peoples’ commitment and capacity to learn on all levels. Otherwise they become victims of learning disabilities and mediocrity. And even if they survive, they never live up to their potential.
Remember the team or organization that became great didn’t start off that way; it learned how to produce great results.
Dominic Fischer has worked extensively with Peak Performances ideas for Alusuisse and Holcim in Switzerland and Mellon Bank in the U.S.A.
He has lectured and consulted for many other companies including DuPont, Roche, Novartis, IBM, Nestlé, Orange, International Schools, KV Schweiz, Berufsschulen.
