In addition to their own work, leaders often have little time to devote to team development. Trying to find the right leadership can be time-consuming and frustrating. MONDAY.ROCKS makes it possible to design team leadership precisely and easily with app-based analyses. The platform combines questioning, analysis, comparison and action in one platform. It analyses team composition and collaboration to develop teams through precise leadership recommendations and team actions. In four steps, leaders become MONDAY.ROCKS HEROES Using scientifically sound methods, all employees are surveyed in the team context as part of an app-based team analysis. The effectiveness of the collaboration is regularly measured in 16 factors and the causes of challenges in the team are identified. By understanding the team composition, team dynamics become visible and new insights into collaboration are harnessed. Managers receive precise leadership recommendations for better collaboration and ongoing team development. The application draws on benchmark data from more than 650 teams and enables more speed and certainty in leadership decisions. Recipes for success of similar teams can be applied easily and quickly.

LS Instruments AG leverages a core expertise in cutting edge light scattering technologies to address complex needs in scientific and industrial areas including biotechnology, food science, cosmetics, nanotechnology, pharmaceuticals, fundamental materials research, and more. LS Instruments was founded as a Spin-Off that originated from the Physics Department of the University of Fribourg. In 2007 the company moved to the incubator FriUp where the professional support allowed us to evolve into a real Start-Up. Consulting by our CTI-Coach Paul-Andre Vogel was vital for our success in these years and continues to contribute to our ongoing progress. In 2011 we made the step to move into our own office in Rte-St-Nicolas-de-Flue where LS Instruments is located today. In the same year we also received the prestigious CTI Start-Up label. Today LS Instruments builds and develops sophisticated scientific tools to supply industry and research with the technology they need to discover the world of tomorrow.
