A quick search revealed dozens of articles from around the world declaring that culture trumps strategy. Legendary systems thinker Peter Drucker has written extensively on the topic. Given such qualitative evidence, how is it possible create lasting strategic results when a quick fix is wanted, yet a culture change is warranted?
Organizations, like people, are complex entities with competing priorities. We live with the paradox of needing to relieve immediate problems while engaging in slow-moving culture change one interaction at a time.

Neurons in the pre-frontal cortex begin to attune between the two or more people present, even when meeting virtually. Oxytocin gets created, which activates not only the brain, but the entire nervous system, bloodstream and heart, which leads to a different capacity to think, collaborate, and innovate.
Building on brain science research, CPL applies the Art of Convening methodology to incrementally shift the structure of meetings within organizations, including time for engagement, alignment and committed action.
