The seminar was centered around the Adizes methology that is based on the fundametal law that states that organizations, as living creatures, go through different stages of their life cycle and demonstrate repeating behavioral models of growth and development. At each new stage, each organization faces a unique set of challenges and problems. Success of the company depends on the ability of its leaders to manage a healthy move from one stage to another. Besides this the participants had unique opportunities to learn about new works and ideas of Dr. Adizes. The seminar was illustrated by bright and recognizable pictures from the life of leaders, unique formulas of successful leadership and metaphors that allow us to see an organization as a living creature. The methodology of Adizes is unique in its practical application, regardless of country, mentality and political situation.
