TEAMBUILDING
Organizational
change is a fact of life. Sometimes however, the pace of change,
uncertainty or changing priorities make it difficult for people
to work together as effectively as they could. In such cases a
team-building experience can pull coworkers together, enable them
to identify with a common cause or set of goals and achieve mutual
understanding. Some of the issues typically explored include:
-
An
overall assessment of the department/organization. What is working,
what is not working, and what is amenable to change?
-
What
are the organization’s mission, vision and values? How
can participants “walk the talk” and integrate these
concepts into their own roles and job performance?
-
Where
are we (the participants in the teambuilding session ) as individuals?
What is our individual style, and how does this style mesh/conflict
with that of our coworkers? How does this style hinder or facilitate
the attainment of departmental/organizational objectives?
-
What
specific techniques can be used by the group to work more effectively
as a team (eg. In terms of communication, problem solving, goal
setting etc.)?
Teambuilding allows people to clear the air and communicate in
a healthy and more constructive way. We have conducted teambuilding
sessions with intact work groups and departments, managers and
senior leadership teams.
