Team Clinics

Service Description

UPWARD Team Clinics A 12-Week Series on Designing How Teams Work *In partnership with Epicenter Helsinki Scaling and international teams rarely fail because of strategy. They slow down because of invisible friction: - Misinterpreted communication - Unclear decision norms - Participation imbalance - Unspoken urgency - Hidden overload - Systems that rely on goodwill instead of structure This 12-week series explores the core coordination mechanics that determine whether teams move smoothly — or stall under growth. Each 90-minute session focuses on one essential module of collaboration design, combining: - Structured insight - Real-world case examples - Practical application - Space to reflect on your own team context Who this is for: - Founders and operators in growth phase - International or distributed teams - Leaders navigating scale or structural change - Anyone responsible for how teams function, not just what they produce What you’ll leave with: - Clearer language for collaboration challenges - Immediate adjustments you can apply - Early warning signals for growth friction - A structured framework for sustainable team design Format: Weekly sessions | March 13 – June 12 (9:30-11 at Epicenter Helsinki) + Optional private sessions Clinic sessions can be booked individually or as a 12-week package.
