VALUE OF DIVERSITYAWARENESS: “Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.” ― CARL JUNG
TRANSFORMATION- GROWTH: “The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances: if there is any reaction, both are transformed.” ― CARL JUNG
PROGRESS: “If we can stay with the tension of opposites long enough —sustain it, be true to it—we can become vessels within which the divine opposites come together and give birth to a new reality.” ― MARIE-LOUISE VON FRANZ

SELF-MANAGED TEAMSSelf-managed teams, known also as “teal organizations operate effectively, even at a large scale, with a system based on peer relationships. They set up structures and practices in which people have high autonomy in their domain, and are accountable for coordinating with others. Power and control are deeply embedded throughout the organizations, no longer tied to the specific positions of a few top leaders.” Frederic LalouxRead more about the different type of organizations here: http://www.strategy-business.com/article/00344?gko=10921
