There have been hundreds of studies demonstrating that human beings function better and learn better in groups. If you want to develop your team leadership skills and unleash the talent of your individual team members, this workshop is a practical look at current leadership practices that work.

We’ll cover practical topics like improving team communication, stimulating creativity, solving problems as a team, resolving internal and external conflict, and obtaining consensus. We’ll also discuss some theory on team-building, including your team player style, Tuckman and Jensen’s stages of team development, DeBono’s six thinking hats, and Glenn Parker’s twelve team characteristics. In addition, you’ll receive tools to help you grow, such as SWOT analysis and team action plans.
