The Discussion Will Primarily Cover:
• The fundamental flaw of every organization you know – and why it kills agility and innovation
• Why all the research and investment on building better teams isn’t leading to better teaming
• Why even leading organizations – like Cisco, Netflix, RIM, & JP Morgan – under perform and fail

• How replicating the IDF approach to building and leading teams makes success inevitable

This event is free and open to the public.
