As our organizations grow, headcount increases and the number and size of projects get bigger, things become more complex. Control systems get stress tested, we outgrow processes and the wheels get wobbly. We get the work done, deliver the project, the customer is happy, but when we look in the wake, there are body bags and organizational friction. All of this has an impact on profit.

We think we have personality conflicts and breakdowns in communication, so we do personality testing and conduct communication seminars in the hope that we can all work better together. But after the seminar, nothing changes. That’s because we do not have a communication problem, we have a structure problem. We create the structure in which people work. We set the context. It is all about structure. Change the context, behavior follows.

In his presentation, Tom Foster will share the statistically signi cant research of the late Dr. Elliott Jaques (1917-2003) related to levels of work in organizational structure.

“Tom Foster is the most important speaker on leadership we’ve had in TEC in the last five years.”
—Lisa Reardon, CEO OwnersEdge
