Who We Serve
We work best with businesses that have been in business for 10+ years.
We diagnose precisely where each team has problems and focus their learning on what they need to overcome their obstacles to success.
Your first teams were created out of necessity as your organization grew.
At the 10-year mark, organizations are stable enough to take stock of themselves as they plan for their future.
Use this time to gain clarity by taking the temperature of your teams during Strategic Planning and doing a preliminary analysis of your Present State.
Think about what you could accomplish if your teams got rid of dysfunctional behaviors with each other – this is the first hint of your Future Teaming State.

What Our Clients Say
"The NETZRO executive team had the experience of going through the Gallup BP10 process with Margaret Ricci of Cultural Strategies, LLC. The program allowed our team to discover gaps in skills and knowledge that we then focused on in our team building efforts. Margaret gave us tools to communicate more effectively that we continue to use. Being a startup business knowing the areas of weakness is critical to our growth. Margaret is a terrific facilitator that has a unique ability to encourage participation and provide an environment where all are valued for their individual contributions. This was a great team building exercise and I would recommend it to any business."
Sue MarshallFounder and CEO of NETZRO, SBC
"Utilizing Margaret and the BP10 program made a big difference in the management of TCI Business Capital. We have been able to better utilize the strengths of each member of the management team while identifying gaps that prevented us from reaching our highest functioning as a team. This allowed us to put the right people in the right roles, regardless of previously established accountabilities and expectations, and put our efforts toward realizing our full potential as managers, as a team and as a company. Margaret and her materials were engaging, enlightening and efficient. I enthusiastically recommend Margaret and BP10 to any management team looking to foster alignment and improve management functioning."
Mark ZitzewitzSVP and General Counsel at TCI Business Capital, a division of Fidelity Bank
"I wasn’t sure that there was something unique in BP10 that I wouldn’t have uncovered in prior personality assessments. The assessment was still new and not yet well-known. Margaret reviewed my results in the context of the substantial data that has already been gathered in support of the BP10 framework. The BP10 format clearly outlines where I shine and possibly struggle as the leader of my own business. The tools available help me understand these areas of growth and opportunity while building strategic approaches to maximize my potential and that of my business. I can better articulate my business and entrepreneurial strengths and needs for support. Using them, I can build a growth plan for my business with confidence and know what resources to work with to validate."

"I wholeheartedly recommend Margaret Ricci, MBA, CEO of Cultural Strategies, as an awesome Gallup-Certified Strengths Coach. Margaret’s enthusiasm for the CliftonStrenghts system is well-founded. It is a powerful tool that is helping me to capitalize on my strengths and be more effective in achieving my personal and professional goals. In addition to her thorough knowledge of the system, what I appreciated most about Margaret was her excitement over my growing understanding. Her affirmation of my personal insights set up a positive feedback loop, encouraging me to dig even deeper and to drive my effectiveness through application of the Strengths methodology."
