Why does your team keep making the wrong call?

Because individual self-interest beats org-interest when no one's named the trade-off. We name it, in an hour.

You might recognize the shape.

The decision looks good in the room. It plays badly when each person walks back to their function and runs the math for themselves.

What's underneath.

Hidden self-interest (Maslow × Kahneman).

Decision-makers act on their motivational ladder, often unconsciously. Without surfacing the ladder, the trade-off can't be named — and what isn't named gets re-litigated, just out of sight.

Co-occurs with silo formation and meeting theater.

We change the loop, not the symptom.

What clients say.

"We were clear on our development focus for the year. What was much harder was identifying the right partner to work with—one that is innovative and nimble, could bring best practice and industry experience, and keep our team engaged and challenged. A tall order, and one that the Glinda Group knocked out of the park!"

Sarah Waite · CHRO, Second Harvest Heartland

"I had sky-high expectations for Jordan and Laura, and they exceeded them. Their contributions to our business have been broader and more impactful than I ever could have imagined, and I want more."

Darryl Kelly · CEO, Aspect Software
