Fruitico finds momentum in leadership development

Leadership High Performing Team Culture

This is a story of how G11Team helped a large agriculture operation build leadership capacity and strengthen its culture. The business had experienced rapid growth and the owners recognised that the existing skills and systems of leadership were not adequate or efficient to run a multi-million dollar organisation. While the culture of the business was described as ‘good’, there was acknowledgement that improvement in culture was needed. The owners engaged with G11Team to design and deliver a six-month Leadership and Culture Program. The G11 team method is to understand, diagnose and develop bespoke programs for clients, so the first step was to diagnose. The diagnostic pointed to the need for leadership behaviours that developed trust, built strong relationships, created transparency and clarity, and finally connected people to their and the organisational purpose. G11Team then designed a structured program of sub-team workshops combined with individual and peer leadership coaching. Central to the program, G11Team supported leaders to create a ‘Great Day’ environment, through planning together, peer feedback and bringing values to life through performance behaviours. The result has been most positive – so positive, the owner and CEO, Roger Fahl has stated: “This is the first time that we invested in leadership development for our Managers and Supervisors. While our agriculture skills are good, we realised that we all have much to learn about leadership and culture. The impact of the program on the team and business has been amazing. Our communication is so much better now that we have some structure. There has been a big shift in the confidence of the team, there is a sharper focus on what we do. The entire team is much clearer on how to work together, and the business is thriving.”

K2fly’s M&A process a lesson in Culture

Leadership High Performing Team Culture

Bringing together different teams under the one banner requires an elevated and dedicated focus on a collective culture. Imagine going to work, building up a company for ten years, then it is bought by another, with a new set of values and a different purpose. This issue happens across the globe when companies are acquired by, or are merged with another. During this M&A phase, shining a spotlight on culture development is crucial. Congratulations to global software services company K2fly, and its 70+ employees, for such a strong commitment to high care and high performance during their high M&A phase. K2fly is the leading global provider of reporting software solutions for the mining industry. G11 Managing Director, Michael Broadbridge, has been working with K2fly this year, in Perth and online with its global teams, to assist team members coming on board this global culture journey. “Team member’s motivation increases when they are connected to the purpose of their team and when they understand the impact of their contribution towards this purpose.” The G11 Team workshops with K2fly unpacked what success looks like for these new team members, plus how they’d know at any point in time they were performing, and the behaviours needed to live their values.
