Encourage cross-functional collaboration
Collaboration is critical to success. But communication between scientists, clinicians, regulatory experts, and sales is challenging, especially when each team speaks their own language.
By using a common language to discuss personality traits, Birkman removes communication gaps so teams can better come together.
Reduce conflicts
Getting a new product to market takes input from across the organization. But when you bring together subject-matter experts, you’re also mixing a variety of personalities, opinions, and work behaviors. This can put the brakes on efficiency and success.
We’ll show you how to leverage team differences with personality-based conflict resolution strategies that allow teams to stay aligned and moving forward.
