Team Building Programs

Our Team Development activities help you to:

  • Identify team member’s strengths and weaknesses.
  • Understanding others’ styles – how to blend these for greater success in achieving common team goals.
  • Adapt your own communication style in order to create a better connection with others – internally or externally.
  • Reduce frustration and increase effectiveness with your team’s communication.
  • Enhance self-awareness & how you affect others on the team.
  • Practice implementing specific techniques used by highly functioning teams.

INSIGHTS DISCOVERY EXERCISES  Time frame: 3 – 8 hours

The ability to work well together depends on an understanding of the differences in learning styles and personality types. We use Insights Discovery exercises to gain an easily used and comprehensive analysis of each team member’s attributes. This is a very powerful and useful tool to begin a team building program.

The evaluator takes about 20 minutes to take online, is easily understood, and relates specifically to improving work and home relationships. A powerpoint presentation emphasizes and grounds the learnings, while added fun experiential exercises allow the participants to practice acting on their new awareness using the Insights tool.

TEAM AND LEADERSHIP CHALLENGE COURSE
(ON THE GROUND) Time frame: 3 hours to 2 days

Our team & leadership challenge course uses obstacles and world-class facilitation to create scenarios that are solvable more effectively by strong teamwork & creative leadership than by individual efforts. We design a progression of activities that allow the learnings to build on each other throughout the event. Learning how to work together more efficiently in your workplace is the focus of these activities. We have several days worth of challenges that we can choose from depending on your goals and objectives of the event, and the design can focus on effective teamwork OR on leadership development.  Experiencing the Insights Discovery System before these activities provides great results.
