“The program gave us confidence and insights. Fanbased managed to engage everyone, even those who were initially skeptical.”

WHAT WAS THE CHALLENGE?

Before the program, MULTIFIX BV faced a significant transition driven by its ambitious growth plan. These growth ambitions impacted various areas, particularly leadership and collaboration between the management layer and the board. Additionally, it was essential for the program to align with the company’s culture to maximize participant engagement and effectiveness.

We translated this challenge into the following program objectives:

Strengthening ownership and initiative within the management team.
Creating space for strategic decision-making by fostering greater responsibility and trust within the management team.
Collaborating as one unified team to achieve the ambitious growth plans.

WHY WAS THE PROGRAM A SUCCESS?

At Fanbased, we prioritize concrete outcomes and encourage participants to take responsibility for their leadership ambitions by presenting their results at the end of the program. This approach fostered commitment and strengthened team support. It clarified the role of managers and reinforced ownership and initiative within the management team. The collaboration between management and the board, as well as the team’s long-term strategic focus, saw significant improvement. As a result, the leadership team now operates more effectively and is ready to realize the company’s ambitious growth plans.

What does Multifix think of the collaboration?

MULTIFIX BV chose to collaborate with Fanbased due to the program’s concrete and focused approach. Fanbased invested considerable time during the design phase to thoroughly understand MULTIFIX’s context, from strategic to operational levels. This ensured the program seamlessly aligned with the company’s ambitious growth plans, daily challenges, and the organizational culture MULTIFIX is proud of.
