Symbiotic Synergy - What is it?

It’s human nature that we wish to be heard. Our natural born instinct is to contribute. We naturally seek affirmation that we are of value. Quite often in the work place when a Manager or Team Member seeks to display those traits, it comes at the cost of someone else being quashed.

The reverse can be true... where all can benefit and succeed... this is the essence of successful team work: Symbiotic Synergy.

Symbiotic Synergy

Symbiosis reflects a mutually beneficial relationship, where the success of one means the success of another. We commonly see this in the relationship of the clown fish and the anemone.

Synergy is the concept that the whole is greater than the sum of the individual parts. In team work terms, the knowledge and skill sets of the individual members are of most value when they are combined and the collaboration of them will result in greater outcomes. Sort of like 1 + 1 = 11.

Symbiotic Synergy breeds respect, innovation, creativity and an ongoing culture of development. Mistakes aren’t punished; they are accepted as lessons and used to grow and evolve. The political blame game is disintegrated and replaced by a culture of responsibility, accountability and collaboration. Creative thinking is no longer a special event; it's a daily occurrence that breeds acceptance and superior innovation.

Symbiotic Synergy celebrates individual differences in knowledge, skill sets and work practice via a balanced collaboration, driving the organisation to heights that a traditional Management style could never hope to achieve.

The Thrill of the Fall We've all been there, the feeling that the world is crashing in around you, things just aren't going right. Maybe it's a major 'tabloid worthy' mistake you've made or a series of gut wrenching events that have you feeling anything but happy. You've taken a fall. It's in this state that we feel most vulnerable and unsure of ourselves... but it's also a wonderful opportunity!

As Leaders how can we better understand a fall and more importantly, how can we learn to harness its power? In this article we're not going to give you some 'rah rah' speech... we are going to examine the body's response to a fall, it's flight or fight response and how we can harness this to overcome adversity.

Perpetual Motion of Change Kinetic Energy is the energy of motion, the extra energy an object possesses due to it's motion, the force that keeps an object moving until something get's in it's way. It is defined as: "the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its current velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes."

Negative force of the same or higher magnitude is required to reduce that energy and therefore the object's velocity. The theory doesn't just apply in science, but even more so in Change Management, whether it's an individual, a team or an entire organisation.
