As a business grows, the challenges aren’t always about strategy or expertise. Sometimes, it’s the day-to-day work of bringing people together.
The same misunderstandings keep recurring.

Culture may be part of the picture, but it isn’t always the explanation. Understanding the situation is where progress begins.
