Nice, team spirit, we help each other. Good contact with feedback from the outside world. We are doig fine – and it is getting better. Positive feedback about what is done. Leadership both received and performed – when needed. Corridor talk/bullshit. Quiet meetings, low energy. It was better before. Someone else´s fault. Retention of bad feelings. You can not, I can not/do not want. Sickness presence. Unsustainable. People considering quitting. Creates new – permissive climate Thinking outside the box. Evenings the lights are on. Anything is possible. Inspiring visions. Lots of dialogue. Openness. Learning organization. It is moving……. Fighting in meetings. Many questions. Unclear roles & tasks. What are supposed to do – says who? High staff turnover. Strong protest. Open conflicts. Sick-leave numbers increases. Turf battles. Key people quit. © Fyrarummaren AB 2017
Analytical Instruments Three basic instruments: • Introduction to the Four Rooms of Change™ • Personal Dialectics with the Outsider Scale™ • The Organizational Barometer® © Fyrarummaren AB 2017
Introduction to the Four Rooms The Introduction can be used in many different contexts. It takes 3 -4 hours for any group to construct the Four Rooms based on their own experience. It creates a common language that can be applied directly. Example when the Introduction fits well may be connected with change and development, in leadership programs, with project launches or before a merger. © Fyrarummaren AB 2017
The Organizational Barometer is an analytical instrument used to investigate how a group or organization works. It is conducted with all employees and managers together. Everyone is involved, and everyone’s view is taken into consideration. Together, the group works with analysis, processing, conclusions and action plans for change and improvement. It is an excellent alternative or complement to anonymous surveys. © Fyrarummaren AB 2017
The Personal Dialectics The Personal Dialectic is used preferably in smaller groups and in personal development work or coaching. Management teams, boards, project- and working groups, as well as individuals, benefit greatly from the Personal Dialectics. Excellent support for major and minor changes, as well as crises and conflicts. © Fyrarummaren AB 2017
