Key components of the program included a Myers-Briggs personality assessment and practical tools for coaching, active listening, and collaborative problem-solving

Improved coordination among management has boosted overall team morale, creating a more supportive and motivated workforce.
Decision-making processes are now more inclusive, fostering a culture of engagement, shared accountability, and collaborative problem-solving. The group continues to tackle challenges collectively in quarterly meetings, demonstrating a sustained commitment to continuous improvement and living the values established through the program.
