Last december 2013 we had in BBF-‐Bilbao Innova4on Factory our strategic days. There we meet more than 200 team entrepreneurs from different learning programs with one concrete
goal: share our team companies’ leading thoughts and renew MTA ones for the next
years! Here you have our iden4ty and culture code.
Our mission statement
“We are teampreneurs making our dreams become true learning and creaPng together”
Our vision
“By 1st May 2020 we are 20 excellent interconnected labs (social innovaPon
ecosystems) in 5 conPnents”
Our values
1. Learning by doing for us represents the ajtude of go and do. If you fail do it fast and try again. In Mondragon Team Academy everyone is the protagonist and it is the responsability of each one to choose the best working dynamics co-‐creaPng with peers. Learning by doing pushes us to our limits and to the uncomfort zone where the most of the learnings happen. The support network of the team and community allows us to make mistakes, have experiences and to apply our knowledge into acPon.
LEARNING BY DOING
2. Team learning is about trust, transparency, communicaPon and common understanding of how to work together between all the members. Team learning is a long process and demands commitment. By giving and receiving feedback in a trust environment we learn more of ourselves and of others. Apply Dee Hock leadership model: 50% leading yourself, 20% leading people above you, 20% leading your peers, 10% inferiors.
TEAM LEARNING
3. We learn the global mindset through personal experiences and learning journeys abroad: Finland (Tiimiakatemia; USA Silicon Valley; China and India). Wide perspecPve of opportuniPes and risks globally helps us to work also locally. Working experiences abroad help us to i d e n P f y l e a r n i n g a n d b u s i n e s s opportuniPes, and to benchmark good dynamics in pracPse. Global mindset doesn’t limit only for the Pme being abroad but we develop internaPonal projects systemically. Every team entrepreneur has an opportunity to do the final project abroad.
GLOBAL MINDSET
4. We follow Dalai Lama´s 3 R´s. -‐-‐Respect for Self -‐-‐Respect for Others -‐-‐Responsibility for all your acPons Take into account that great love and great achievements involve great risk. When you lose, don't lose the lesson. Don't let a li)le dispute injure a great relaPonship. When you realize you've made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it.. Open your arms to change, but don't give up your values. Share your knowledge. It is a way to achieve immortality.
RESPECT &
RESPONSIBILITY
5. We dare for the change of the best. Our learning process as teampreneurs is focused upon conPnuous improvement. We pracPce Kaizen -‐the good change-‐ and it’s a daily process. Live With Discipline (from “The Monk Who Sold His Ferrar i” by R. Sharma) . Represented by a pink wire coil, the noPon of discipline entreats one to consistently perform small acts of courage, strengthen one's will power, and develop the strength of self discipline. As Mahatma Gandhi's famous "You must be the change you wish to see in the world”.
LEAVE IT BETTER
THAN YOU FOUND IT
6. Passion is the motor and heart of Mondragon Team Academy. Passion drives us on overcoming our daily life challenges, and by sharing passion in the team we are able to come up with extraordinary results. In Mondragon Team Academy make our dreams become true with the help of the team. What would you want to do?
PASSION
7. We believe that transparency and honesty makes the world be)er. We need to be real. When we demonstrate this factor we a re l ea rn ing g rea t l eader sh ip capabiliPes. These values will a)ract the right people into our businesses and community.
TRANSPARENCY &
HONESTY
8. CreaPvity and innovaPon are coming from openess and diversity. Everyone has a unique style of learning, thinking and working. However, very few people learn or work in a way which is best for them (“The Power of Diversity” by B. Prashnig). We need to encourage diversity –not just of colour but of intelect and style-‐ in the workplace in order to succeed.
OPENESS &
DIVERSITY
9. We teampreneurs and our collaborators as changemakers are creaPng the community of Mondragon Team Academy. We belong to Mondragon Coopera8ve and we co-‐create with Team Academy’s internaPonal learning network. Community gives us support and helps us to learn. We are commi)ed to our community socially and environmentally, understanding our impact and taking our responsibility of it. We understand the value of MTA community and take acPvely part to the events organized by members of MTA as well as our collaborators.
