Abstract: Abstract Vineet Nayar wanted his team of thousands to leap with him to manage change and reposition HCL to serve customers more effectively. Realizing that he could not impose his will on his staff, he organized sessions where together they developed the organization’s culture and strategies. But to make these sessions effective, he wanted to create an open culture that would help managers and employees speak their minds as well as listen to each other and combine their ideas into common solutions to move forward.
