Vision. Management. Mentorship. Coaching. Delegation. Facilitation.
All are pieces of a complex puzzle when developing a high-powered and productive team. The leadership style for a forming team is very different from the style you would use if your team is in the midst of conflict, or if they were “performing well, but could be better.” The key to sustaining high performance is understanding where your team is right now in its formation and development, and identifying what you, as team leader, need to do in order to enable better performance.
This workshop provides an experiential learning approach to specifically address the current challenges faced by your team. Based on real feedback from the Team Development Indicator™ assessment, you will identify your team’s current stage of development. Through hands-on exercises and discussion, you will then develop situational leadership strategies and skills to sustain and motivate your team to the next stage of performance – increasing their overall effectiveness and productivity. At the end of the program, you will leave with a customized team development plan to implement once you return to your organization.
