High-performing teams drive successful, sustainable organizations, but simply calling a group a team doesn't make it one. This 60-minute team building training shows managers and leaders how to build teams step by step.
You'll learn what a high-performing team looks like, the six characteristics of the winning team model, the four stages of team development and their challenges, and five team management skills that hold a team together. The session covers leading project, cross-cultural, virtual, self-managed and permanent teams, team building activities for trust and communication, and preventing silo thinking.
It uses four fire-fighter survival principles, from 'Dead heroes can't save lives' to 'Sometimes we need one good fire,' as practical guides.
WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?
Misunderstandings, dropped work and conflict keep many groups from performing like a trained fire crew. Effective teams raise innovation, creativity and the quality and quantity of results, and they develop future leaders.
Whether you're new to leading teams or experienced, you'll leave with a plan to improve your leadership and your team's performance. It suits CEOs, COOs, HR leaders, chief learning officers, directors, project and operations managers, supervisors, team leaders and new managers.
