“We are pleased to have the opportunity to work with the exceptional team at Root,” says Dr. Robert A. Cooke, CEO of Human Synergistics International (HSI). “Their unique approach and Learning Map® visual have allowed us to collaboratively build an engaging, interactive experience that helps participants understand and apply our model of ‘how culture works’.”
Facilitated in tables of six to 10 participants, the Culture Journey Learning Map Experience offers attendees a hands-on approach to learn about how culture is created, build a common language for understanding its layers, discover how it evolves, and identify paths to increase the likelihood of shared learning and positive results with their change efforts.
Rich Berens, CEO and Chief Client Fanatic of Root, comments: “Organizational culture is one of the biggest determinants in new strategies succeeding or large-scale change taking hold. We appreciate the opportunity to partner with Human Synergistics to help organizations understand the importance of engaging their people in their culture journey and enabling them to better bring it to life and ultimately see positive results.”
The Culture Journey Learning Map Experience is part of the program at Human Synergistics’ upcoming 1st Regional Ultimate Culture Conference, presented in partnership with the University of Wisconsin-Madison (September 17, 2018), and at other conferences, company meetings, and educational events.
“We’re excited to make the important and often over-simplified subject of culture more approachable and easier to understand,” says Tim Kuppler, Human Synergistics’ Director of Culture and Organization Development. “The Culture Journey Learning Map Experience clarifies the complexities of culture, leadership, and their connection to performance to inspire and empower effective change.”

Last spring, about 100 of Mayer Brown LLP’s senior associates from around the world arrived in New York City for a senior associate conference. Very quickly, they crash-landed in a frigid, desolate landscape in subarctic Canada in a Subarctic Survival Situation™ developed by Human Synergistics International. They landed far from civilization, surrounded by arctic swamps and high snow drifts, in freezing weather, and with no means of communication to the outside world. As the plane sunk, they were able to salvage only 15 items to aid their survival.
The obvious question of this exercise is whether one is better off making survival decisions on one’s own or by harnessing the power of a group. Not surprisingly, even among office-bound lawyers with strong personalities, groups nearly always outperform individuals. The not-so-obvious lessons about team building and leadership were plentiful as well. Here are five things that we learned from surviving together in the tundra.
Note: The steel wrench and candles are not among the actual items included in the Subarctic Survival Situation. They were used to preserve the integrity of the simulation.

At the 1960 Rome Olympics, John Konrads won two individual medals: a bronze and a gold. He claims the bronze resulted from an over-focus on Competitive thinking and the gold from an Achievement motivation.
Almost three decades later, he has come to understand how these two thinking styles played out to produce two very different results.
