This session focuses on taking an existing work group or team and increasing cohesion to maximize team function. The training sessions can be any duration in length ranging from a 90 minute “Lunch and Learn” style session to a full 8-hour workshop. In most cases, the training can be presented at your workplace for the convenience of your staff. The typical session includes the following information: • A review of how our individual perceptions can create bad outcomes in our working relationships. In this module, we explore how our perceptions drive our attitudes and how our attitudes drive our behaviours. • An examination of the process of how we sometimes succumb to our destructive “inner voice” and how our internal thoughts show up in our external behaviours. This process of “toxic thinking” leads to “toxic behaviours” which can create issues during our personal and professional interactions. • An interactive discussion relating to strategies for us to manage our own emotions in the face of challenging situations as well as an examination of how we can manage the strong emotions we encounter in our team members. • An examination of our own personal communication style and how that relates to the way in which we interact with other members of our team. The balance of the session focuses on highly interactive teambuilding activities in which members of the group move through a series of challenging tasks and must wok through these activities as a cohesive unit. Through this process, behaviour patterns emerge and those participating learn valuable lessons about themselves and their fellow team members.
