Create high-performing, fully engaged, self-directed teams.
There are 7 characteristics all truly
high-performing teams share in common. While exploring each characteristic, leaders will discover ways to practically and effectively align their teams to multiply and
leverage the talent and output
of each member of their team.
Discover and capitalize on your natural strengths.
The strengths philosophy is the assertion that we stand to benefit far more by building on our greatest strengths than by spending that same energy to remediate our weaknesses. Utilizing the Gallup CliftonStrengths assessment, we explore ways to better work in and lead from our strengths.
Improve EQ to leverage differences in approach and personality.
The strongest teams are those who operate with a high level of emotional intelligence and capitalize on the differences in personality and approach, rather than becoming frustrated by them. There is no greater way to strengthen team connection than improving your team's EQ.
Increase personal productivity while decreasing unnecessary stress.
Prioritizing tasks and learning how to differentiate between the urgent and the important increases our margin to become more productive, rather than just busy. Conscious productivity improves effectiveness, efficiency, and work life balance.
Delegate intentionally and
recognize purposefully.
Delegation includes far more than passing off an unwanted menial task. It is the successful transfer of responsibility and distribution of leadership for improved efficiency, strategic growth, and team development. Effective delegation requires intentional thought, empowered accountability, and
continuous feedback.
Resolve conflict and navigate
difficult conversations.
Failure to proactively and consistently offer feedback, address concerns, and resolve conflict can quickly create an uncomfortable team dynamic and undermine the confidence teams have in their leaders. Difficult conversations are not so daunting when equipped and trained beforehand with the necessary finesse and skills to navigate those conversations successfully.
Make the most of your team
thinking time.
As a leader of a brainstorming session, you set the tone and the group either benefits from or is bogged down by your influence. We will equip you with a collection of practical and proven facilitation tips that will help you balance participation, deepen discussions, enhance creativity, and reach sustainable decisions as a team.
Serious fun that leads to
serious results.
Experiential team building activities give your team the opportunity to interact together in a fun, yet intentional way. Simulating real world challenges, team building activities provide a fresh perspective for overcoming daily obstacles. Plato said it best, "You can discover more about a person in an hour of play than in a year of conversation."
Playing together is a powerful catalyst for change.
Using team games to simulate everyday challenges teams face, offers teams a disarming way to learn to think and work even better together. The best facilitators understand the power is in the debriefing. During this facilitator's workshop, we will explore how to best surface insights and help the team transfer that learning back to their work environment.
