Social Contract
Agreement. Mutual Trust. Accountability.
Uncovering what really matters to a team to describe a shared sense of identity.
What is it?
Social Contract by Twiga facilitates agreement, mutual trust and accountability in teams by providing a powerful framework for collaboration to agree specific and agreed behaviours and attitudes.
The social contract provides language and agreement that enables team members to hold each other accountable, promoting team commitment and positive collaboration.
Why is it important?
Grounded in trust, the social contract leads to connected, high trust, high-performance teams.
Created by the team, in plain language that is visual and accessible, it creates a solid foundation for the shared sense of identity.
The social contract is the ‘unheroic work’ of teams – work that is often acknowledged, yet frequently overlooked.
Our approach
We use human-centred design techniques to understand culture, accelerate change and solve complex problems.
This allows people and teams to explore key topics and contribute their insights in such a way to enable a sense of ownership and personal investment. At the same time, challenging participants to think holistically about a broad range of needs.
Outcomes
Your team will collaborate to frame challenges, agree priorities, inform decision making and test concepts.
By the end of the day, participants will achieve:
- an enhanced understanding of the team change experience from a position of empathy
- agreed future ways of working
- a working draft of a social contract, and
- a commitment to one+ immediate changes that can be implemented at an individual or team level
Duration
The Social Contract is a one-day, immersive team experience.
