Be the Steve Irwin of Distribution and Rethink Team Dynamics

Strengthening Workplace Culture in Distribution with the Zookeeper Framework

Workplace culture isn’t a “soft skill”—it’s a competitive advantage.

Leadership expert Darcy Blessing-Williams (formerly of Cardinal Health and ABB Optical) introduces a new way for distributors to rethink team dynamics:

🔹 The Zookeeper Framework uses four animal behaviors—lions, lemurs, dolphins, and elephants—to make team communication and leadership more effective.
🔹 Great leaders, like great zookeepers, create an environment where every team member can thrive—by understanding behaviors, not trying to control them.
🔹 Miscommunication costs time, projects, and customers. Building a strong workplace culture protects your bottom line.

Catch more insights from Blessing-Williams at MDM’s SHIFT Conference, May 13–15 in Denver.
