3. What will the audience hear? GOOD COOPERATION DOES NOT MEAN A SUGAR- COATED ‘CULTURE OF LOVE’ AND SWEEPING DIFFICULT ISSUES UNDER THE CARPET. DON’T ENERGIZE YOURSELF AT THE COST OF OTHER TEAMS. FOCUS ON THE TASKS THAT ARE REALLY NEEDED, WITH FOCUS ON THE BOTTOM LINE OF THE WHOLE ORGANIZATION. DON’T PREACH ABOUT SHARING RESPONSIBILITY, GO BEYOND A ROLE OF A PASSIVE OBSERVER. JUST GET ON BOARD!

4. What’s inside? FOCUS ON THE COMMON GOAL: What happens when we focus on our function and expertise, not on the ultimate goal? JOINT RESPONSIBILITY: Overcoming “inbred” initiatives and the temptation to strengthen “gilded principalities”. REAL COMMITMENT: What is the difference between theoretical support and real action? CREATIVE CONFLICT: From covered-up disagreements to healthy creative discussions and constructive dialogues: What can we learn from two great rock stars? TRUST: The impact of stereotypes and scoffers in everyday business life. Why is it so important to avoid corporate hypocrisy?

5. Why should you go for it? The speech based on a coherent concept supported by twenty-year-old research. Demystifying slogans about communication and teamwork. Perfect for cross-functional meetings. The option for a quick diagnosis and labeling the most common syndromes and mental models, which hamper the cooperation within the company.
