Protected: How to Create a ‘Nation’ from ‘States’? Lessons from 1787

  • 45 min
  • Available Globally
  • Free 48hr Hold

In the musical Hamilton, the lead character famously asks, “Are we a nation of states? What’s the state of our nation?”

Many corporate teams operate as loose confederations of individuals with a common purpose — but often devoid of the mechanisms for real collaboration. The result is reduced inclination to take risks, seek help — or thrive by building on each others’ resources.

Presidential historian Carol Berkin joins your team to share the ‘organizational behavioral’ principles behind how the Constitutional Convention of 1787 led to a group of strong-willed individuals — representing states with very different interests — to agree to embark on ‘interdependence’.

This Experience will leave your group more generous, flexible and diplomatic in how they build your business.
