One-day Program
Have you ever witnessed a winning sports team, a well-rehearsed orchestra, or a synchronized surgical unit and felt the commitment and energy the team demonstrated? What you saw was more than just teamwork — it was team synergy, a phenomenon that occurs when a team achieves greater results than the sum of its parts.
Give your team the opportunity to experience that phenomenon with Creating Team Synergy. A complete one-day program, Creating Team Synergy focuses on 5 key issues that hinder team effectiveness.
Using experiential tools that include learning instruments, hands-on activities, and an interactive team simulation, teams gain a clearer sense of direction, clarify roles and responsibilities, improve operating processes, and bolster both interpersonal and interteam relationships.
Learning Outcomes
- Pinpoint the team's current level of development
- Recognize and reduce or eliminate blockages to maximum performance
- Define criteria for meaningful mission, vision, and goal statements
- Identify team member communication styles
Theory
With its range of learning tools, Creating Team Synergy is based on a variety of theories, including interteam and relationship theory as well personality style theory. The program shows the influences of Richard Beckhard, Carl Jung, William Marston, and others.
How it Works
Creating Team Synergy gives participants a well-rounded learning experience, balancing facilitator instruction with private reflection and group interaction. Through the combination of two HRDQ learning instruments, two hands-on games, an adventure simulation, and small-group activities, participants learn more about themselves as team members and how effectively their team functions.
