About this title

Synopsis

The Competing Values Card Deck is a great, immersive experience for organizations. The card deck helps teams sort themselves into the quadrants of the Innovation Code model and then uses the included and ancillary materials so participants can learn more about their teams. Armed with this knowledge, teams will be able to leverage the concepts of competition and collaboration in their organizations. Get ready to get a whole room of people up, moving around, and talking to each other without resorting to questions about everyone’s favorite ice cream flavor.
