Teamwork is the lubrication of the productive organizational engine.
Do you have work groups that could use a tune up?
If your department, work group, or management team isn't running on all cylinders it means that there is more performance available, that things could be running more efficiently and that it could be costing you in numerous ways.
The fact, is most work teams don't know how to work together as well as they could. Teamwork often evolves in an ad-hoc fashion, dependent upon personalities, circumstances and hard earned lessons that could have been avoided with a more effective methodical approach. Even when good teamwork does emerge, it is often quite fragile and vulnerable, instead of being an asset that can be depended upon when things get tough.
BUILD MY TEAM is a one day team development program that will re-establish teamwork foundations, teamwork skills and lead the work team to higher performance.
BUILD MY TEAM takes the best and most effective teamwork elements and applies them to your work group- getting them 'on track' - starting immediately - and keeps them there for the future.

BUILD MY TEAMFocuses On Several Important Dimensions Of Effective Teamwork:
TEAMWORK FOUNDATIONS- Clarification of team identity, mission and purpose, critical processes, deliverables which are most strongly tied to customer satisfaction, and clear roles for all team members.
TEAMWORK SKILLS- The team practices effective group processes and demonstrates the results that can be achieved with better communication, information sharing, problem solving approaches, planning, meeting skills, participation and involvement. Program participants learn to tap the talent and resources of their own work group first and maximize the contribution of each team member.
INDIVIDUAL TEAMWORK BEHAVIOR- Participants take inventory of their own blocks to participation and learn to minimize non-productive behaviors and to contribute in ways that add synergy to the team. This program is designed specifically to build stronger individual commitment to the team.
TEAM LEADERSHIP- Team leaders gain a new perspective on how to strengthen teamwork foundations, take responsibility for facilitating the growth of their team as a whole and the importance of coaching and developing each individual team member.
TEAM PERFORMANCE- With team identity and core mission re-alignment along with stronger teamwork skills and commitment, the team naturally increases it's own performance in critical areas most important to the organization.
Participants complete the TOTAL TEAMWORK SURVEY online before the program begins- creating a comprehensive report and baseline report of teamwork strengths and weaknesses. This diagnosis is utilized to select specific exercises and facilitation focus to tailor the team building program to the needs of the group.
