A pivotal moment for team culture
At Elsevier’s World Sales Conference in Bangkok, the timing was right. A change in leadership had opened the door for a team restructure: and with it, a fresh opportunity to build unity across a complex, global sales organisation.
Spread across continents, time zones, and functions, the team of 180 had grown disconnected. Different working styles, blurred relationships, and remote silos had weakened the sense of shared culture and team identity.
Leadership recognised that if they wanted to position the sales team for success – commercially and culturally – they needed to reconnect their people.
“It was the highlight of this 3-day event. We have had so much fun.”
“A great team-building exercise to give us insight on how to leverage our strengths and minimize our weaknesses collectively.”
“It allows me to explore how different styles can efficiently work together, how they complement each other to achieve more than just the sum of their individual skills.”
“Self – insights gained in a safe supportive environment and an understanding of the benefits of different personalities to problem solving.”
“This has really opened my eyes to the needs that others may have and given me tools for ensuring I can meet people where they may be.”
