from co-managed meetings to a co-managed company
Client: Ampersand Management
Duration: 2 day training

Context
Ampersand is a company that manages a chain of mid-range and high-end restaurants in Saigon and Hanoi. They employ an inverted pyramid management model and are moving towards a future where every employee becomes a shareholder of the company. After experiencing a co-managed meeting, a leader at Ampersand invited Đom Đóm Lab to introduce this method to the company.
Our role
Over the course of two days, the DDL team and 40 staff members from various departments, divisions, and positions covered foundational knowledge on how to invite and facilitate a co-management meeting. Theoretical sessions were always paired with hands-on practice and reflection. During the training, the team had multiple opportunities to apply these new practices to real challenges in their work.
What’s next
Right after the training, Ampersand’s leadership team applied the co-managed meeting approach and achieved positive results. DDL will continue to check in with the company to provide coaching sessions and address any questions during the implementation process.
How to ask questions is super important. After the training, I see that asking the right question is really cool, and I’ll apply this more in my work.
