The Gurubeam story

The Problem

Back in 2020, Daniel - the founder of Gurubeam, was a part of the management team in one of Denmarks' fastest-growing scale-ups, handling the responsibilities of HR.

They had great succes, hiring the great people. But great people don’t necessarily make a great team. And to enable even more successful teamwork he needed the organization to up their teamwork skills.

With great experience as a consultant, he had learned, that engaging people in creating first-class teamwork was the way to go. But he also knew that he was way too busy to do workshops, intense sparring, etc. And people leaders already had enough on their plates … and frankly, facilitating team development doesn’t come easy to all people leaders.

The Question

How could Daniel possibly make people leaders engage their teams in making the most of their teams, without relying on his own time, and over-challenge the people leaders? It had to be easy, short (1-hour-ish), and risk-free (nobody wants a team to “blow up” in a team development session).

The Solution

He often had this thought: "If you just knew this... we wouldn't have to deal with this issue". So the knowledge from all kind of "gurus" was out there. The task at hand was to turn that into something the team could learn together fast. The solution became the first beams. - Engaging, plug-and-play, 1 hour team sessions.

And it worked! (Kinda surprisingly). Since then, people leaders and their teams from small local companies and large global companies have used Gurubeam to level up teamwork skills in their teams.
