Self-Organizing Teams are the new paradigm for collaborative learning and leadership. Eliminate hierarchical systems and replace them with truly democratic models of working together. We look at a family, a village, and a community as a team where everyone has gifts to share. TrackersTEAMS principles come from a place you would not expect, the high-tech world of software development. Truly innovative software developers leave hierarchy behind and celebrate getting work done well and quickly with common effort. They call this model Agile Teamwork. With the blessings of our elder and internationally renowned team consultant Diana Larsen, we have combined the awareness of ecology with agile teamwork principles for a highly effective way of getting things done. We call it Natural Agile Teams. TrackersTEAMS helps you foster sustainability in both learning and working. As we work through our year we take on core routines of facilitation and find that coming together generates better communication and healthier results. While many models sound great on a whiteboard or flip chart, Natural Agile Teams yields results tested by some of the most successful collaborative entrepreneurs and companies today.
