Square Wheels Organizational Development, Leadership and Facilitation Products
Designed to Improve Organizational and Personal Performance
Most of the Products listed above are designed around our Square Wheels® series
of illustrations that are used interactively to give participants a chance to
"step back from the wagon" and gain important perspective based on their own and the other participants'
reactions and ideas stemming from the Square Wheels cartoons.
These facilitation products were developed with the belief that "Nobody
ever washes a rental car." People are more open to learning, thinking,
remembering and acting / implementing if they are involved in the process.
All products are downloadable at time of purchase and are designed to: - Easily engage individuals and
groups
- Create an interactive, participative approach
- Help people gain better
perspective
- Add humor to capture interest
- Work in all types of
organizational cultures
- Be simple and straightforward
in use
- Generate desired outcomes
The Square Wheels / Round Wheels / Wagon metaphor makes it easy to engage people in thinking about their workplace and how things work, thus generating ideas that cause active involvement and ownership. For instance, show people the Square Wheels One cartoon and have a 10-minute discussion of some key points and you can readily bridge to how things work in the jobs at hand and simply build a whole process improvement discussion. People are much more likely to be accept new ideas when they feel they have a part in the "ownership" of implementing these ideas.
Consider the many benefits for using these illustrations to focus on the simple reality that many systems and processes could operate more smoothly or more effectively. Communications about process improvement and change are often difficult and leaders realize that there are always better ways to accomplish things. These are great tools and simple to use! They initiate dialogue allowing opportunities for discovery. They are also inexpensive and quite flexible in application.
