Developing management team at large wholesaler

The CEO of a large wholesaler leads a number of managing directors. Together they form the management team of the holding company. Well, only in name as in reality they were anything but a team. Each director was only interested in his own area. During MT meetings everyone was playing a act by keeping up appearances about their own fantastic business unit. It looked as if each person was best friends with the other. However, when it came to openness, trust and collaboration conversations suddenly dropped dead. The CEO wanted them to start acting and working on a more strategic level as the market is changing quickly. He asked Blits to help him get his ideals in place. As we speak, this transition is still in process. Not only the managers are learning to appreciate and trust each other more. They are also making large steps concerning their own personal leadership. Blits gives them the opportunity to experience how leadership, teambuilding and commerce go together at the same time.
