teamwork

Teamwork is formed by the dynamic interaction of individuals.  The quality of how a group works together depends upon how intentional and proactive the group is and their level of commitment to their work processes and goals.  Without a clear approach and direction of how to work together, work groups depend upon luck, the use of positional authority to dominate activities and direction, or a reactive day to day ad hoc way of operating that does not take advantage of the full potential of the group. 
 
San Diego Corporate Training helps teams develop new, more productive ways of operating together that foster synergy, individual commitment and higher levels of satisfaction for everyone.  This will always result in an increase in the accomplishment of the organization’s goals.
 
SDCT programs attack the fundamental causes of the problems between workers and within teams, while simultaneously teaching best practices for better teamwork.  The central teaching methodology emphasizes experiential learning through structured team problem solving exercises and organizational simulations to create awareness, identify productive and non-productive behaviors, and to practice new models and skills by ‘trying them on for size’ in the neutral and non-threatening atmosphere of the training seminar.
 
SDCT programs are fast moving, highly participatory and emphasize learn-by-doing rather than didactic lecture.  Through facilitated discussions and feedback after each exercise, work groups demonstrate their own ability to operate differently and to achieve more productive and satisfying results.  This methodology has been refined over the past twenty five years as an extremely effective way to get teams on the right track fast, and to significantly up level the way a team works together. Sorry, but we don't do sack races..
 
The typical team development program will accomplish many exercises in a single day and touch on a broad range of subject matter important to team functioning including:


> The importance of healthy group processes
> The down side of pure task orientation
> Team leadership approaches
> Problem solving and decision-making skills
> Impact of personal style as a team member
> Communication on a team
> Conflict resolution
> Participation involvement and empowerment
> Continuous improvement on the team
> The ideal state for the team and it’s interactions
    And more..

Building Teamwork - an art and a science

Employees and Managers who enjoy working well together are more productive, more creative, and ultimately. . less costly.

Any complex work environment with normal pressures can cause workforce relationships to become strained and morale to slip.  Over time, these stresses can dramatically affect the bottom line and may cripple an organization's potential. 

Getting workers to overcome their differences, find more effective ways of communicating, collaborating and committing to one another is both an art, and a science- and should not be left to the unskilled. 

Developing a synergistic climate and teaching teamwork processes and skills that will actually work - can happen in a single powerful training experience- when it is professionally designed and delivered.
