It is 11:01 am and the managers meeting begins surprisingly on time and in a relaxed but energetic atmosphere. The gestures between the different participants confirm something that I already know: they know each other well, there is a feeling of trust between them, they can anticipate each other’s movements.

I was waiting for a long-standing colleague to receive me, he had recently been appointed director of Human Resources for a company whose industry I prefer not to reveal. I started scanning the brochures available on the coffee table; […]
One of the greatest challenges for companies is building a heterogeneous human group. As we said a few days ago, creativity is born from dissent, and we need that diversity of ideas to grow. We require people who harmoniously relate to each other or even in dissent, but… how is this harmony achieved? What happens when dissent […]
