Conflict Resolution - Reducing investor risk

The lack of relational awareness might be killing ROI

Entrepreneurs are living in a fast paced world where relationships and long-term company culture seldom are at the forefront of operations. Success and engagement can easily mask co-founder conflict. High levels of brain- and body stress chemicals are - while creating positive stress - at the same time creating a fragile performance environment with hidden signs of:

FOGGY THINKING AND POOR MEMORY

Creating faltering logic, time consuming misunderstandings and turning up the imposter syndrome heat.

DOUBLE SIGNALS AND TIMID COMMUNICATION

Creating doubt and poor team performance by being unaware of their psychological and unintended impact.

FAILING, UNHEALTHY PRIORITIES

Important social structures of support (i.e family) slowly erodes, creating loneliness and lack of belonging.

devastating CULTURAL ABSENSING

A company where assumptions, control, accusation and ego trumps observation, curiosity, compassion and solidarity.

Levels of conflict and need for assessement

SECURING YOUR INVESTMENT
AND your IMPACT

It is of vital importance to secure your financial investment, equally important the awareness of who you actually are as an owner and investor, and what your contribution to society really is. Please join our movement supporting the start-ups of today becoming the dignified and socially- and psychological responsible companies of tomorrow. Together we can make the transition into a new, sustainable economy possible, and create a new world of work towards 2030.

Did you know that entrepreneurs have a 50% greater risk for developing stress and psychological health issues. And that 40% of Norwegian leaders have stress related sickness, and 6 out of 10 experience constant time pressure? Did you know that the 24/7-connectivity has declared loneliness as a public health disease (even though we keep on smiling).

Combine these facts with the omnipresent imposter syndrome and treacherous, reverse Dunning-Kruger effect (doubt) and you will have a parallell company development process of exponential deteriorating performance.

As success can mask conflict, so can ignoring the need for processing breaches of trust, hurtful incidents or difference of personality. Being left unattended, meaningful differences can eventually lead to an escalation of conflicts, by letting it reach the boiling point of fury or fatigue.

The wise investor keeps in mind the cultural and social fabric of our society and is aware of how feelings, thoughts and states of mind related to fear, hopelessness, anxiety, irritation and anger are regarded as unwanted, negative and less desirable. And that they are most often remain locked up behind a facade of rationality and toughness. This personal strategy eventually becomes an obstacle for growth, performance and happiness, and ultimately makes the company a less than profitable venture, including the potentiality of (moral) bankruptcy or loss of company- and investor-reputation.

Testimonials

“Jeg opplevde at du hadde hatt gode samtaler med hver av de involverte i forkant, noe jeg tror var viktig for å ufarliggjøre, men også for å forplikte seg til dette møte. Din sindige væremåte skapte en trygg sfære hvor jeg opplevde, forholdene tatt i betraktning, at det var ok å være.Du anerkjente de involverte for å bidra inn i møte og fortalte gangen i møte. Det skapte en forutsigbarhet i det uforutsigbare. Begge to fortalte sin versjon av hva som har skjedd, uavbrutt– hvor du evt. hjalp de til å legge ord å hva de tenkte/følte og hadde behov for. Du prøvde ikke å endre deres syn på saken. Jeg opplevde deg som ikke dømmende, og du mestret å holde deg objektiv. Du drev prosessen videre, noe som endte i en avtale. En avtale hvor du fikk ut essensen i hva de begge ønsket videre. Avtalen virket ikke påtvunget. Du forventet ikke at de skulle bli kompiser, men at de kunne si «hei» til hverandre i gangen. Det opplevdes som ektefølt. Du er tydelig, men varm, uten for mye snikk snakk og krims krams. Lite komplisert, enkelt og tydelig.”

Dialogmøtet med Anders brakte en ny dimensjon til våre jobbmøter. Med sin metodikk ledet han oss effektivt men også grundig inn til kjernen av temaet vi selv hadde valgt. Hans veiledning førte til en åpenhet blant deltakerene som gav oss store fremskritt og synliggjorde veien videre. Vi trodde vi hadde hatt gode møter inntil vi hadde hatt en dialogmøtet med Anders. Dette anbefales!

Samarbeidet med Anders har virkelig utfordret og ekspandert hva jeg ser på som oppnåelig for meg i min rolle. Vi har utforsket mine drivkrefter og mine ”blind spots”, noe som har være både utfordrende og ekstremt lærerikt. Dette arbeidet og denne bevisstgjøringen har gjort at jeg kommer til å nå målene mine langt tidligere enn jeg ellers ville. Jeg tar nå økt ansvar for egen progresjon, jeg tør å sette høyere mål og er mer skikket til å ta de riktige beslutningene. Jeg anbefaler et coachingsamarbeid med Anders Hov på det sterkeste.

Please Mind The Gap

Anders er et menneske jeg umiddelbart merket at jeg liker å tilbringe tid sammen med. Han ga meg rom til å være 100% meg selv, noe som la et veldig godt grunnlag for samtalene våre. Jeg fikk både konkrete tilbakemeldinger, spørsmål og ekte ros. Ikke minst hjalp han meg med viktige avgjørelser og det var veldig fint å kunne prate om slike ting med en nøytral part! Jeg vet hvem jeg skal gå til neste gang jeg har utfordringer eller bekymringer.

Anders is a genuine and authentic person. He is a strong listener with a presence which creates space for development and change. He has a challenging style, but creates a feeling of safety far outside the comfort zone. I would highly recommend cooperating with Anders. You will definitely see differently on your situations and resources working with Anders.

CPCC, professional coach

Gratitude to Anders who shared his coaching concept with our Wisdom Lab which became an enlivening and refreshing inspiration. He facilitated an open space for both individuals and the group to work through and stay with our vulnerability in creative energies. This helped create confidence, trust and clarity, aiding deep transformation moving us closer to the embodiment of wisdom which we are so profoundly reflecting on. Delving deeper into our core motivations we were challenged to feel our maximum point of discomfort for positive change. Anders is skilled in awakening us to our needs in the moment. Working for oneness with wisdom indeed. Highly recommended!
