Organizations are fragmented and performance is suffering because complexity, diversity, change and hybrid working is causing more and more misalignment between people. Our diagnostics identify and measure the alignment gaps between people in teams so those gaps can be recognized and addressed – quickly, practically, safely and constructively.
Alignment as a process builds inclusivity, engagement, and shared ownership -and it brings rich insights for leaders. The benefits are more effective delivery and increased staff retention. There are many data-driven approaches to improve performance, but none of them get deep into the unique context of the team like we do, to affect real change.
“Barriers to psychological safety can present on a number of levels in the workplace. Mirror Mirror is a refreshing way of getting people around some of those barriers, by allowing them to share their views anonymously, and address key issues without judgement or blame.”
