Teamwork from the Inside Out:
Ideas, Tools & You
This workshop is much more than a one-time team-building activity. It goes into depth, involving participants so that they use their insights as the session unfolds.
They get an insider’s look into factors that are crucial to team communication, engagement, creativity, decision-making, productivity, and more. They uncover their own most important factors. They determine what they’ll do going forward to take themselves and their teams to the next level.
The entire session is made real with practical examples, inspiring stories, and meaningful activities. Included is plenty of facilitated dialogue, so participants can share their own ideas and proven practices.
Intended for: People in all areas and levels of the organization
- Individuals who attend this workshop will be able to take the ideas and tools back to others in their teams.
- When an entire team (or several teams) attends the workshop, a number of the activities are tailored so that team members work together. This shared experience keeps everyone on the same page — and gives the team some serious forward momentum as the workshop concludes.
