Shapers adhere to a craftsman-like culture. If you’re a shaper, you put your stamp on your work. You earn your stripes. You sync with a rhythm of life that lights you up. At times, work may be a frightening obstacle (and obsession), but shapers move through adversity with temperament and tenacity. A determination to con- tinually improve and evolve. A willingness to experiment and learn from mistakes. To create on the fly. To work fluidly. To persevere and be patient in equal measure. To unwaveringly nourish the soul.

Hello Culture Champions! We continue our series on emotional barriers to interpersonal communication by taking a look at how we can detox FEAR, ANGER, WORRY, and GUILT. All of these negative emotions can be debilitating. We can find ourselves paralyzed and feel like we can't get out of the funk. These emotions can impact effective communications at home and at work, impacting the culture around us. The good news is there are actions you can take to detox these emotions and open up trust, collaboration, commitment, constructive conflict, team effectiveness, productivity, and much more.
