Teambuilding
What is teambuilding?
Teambuilding is a process utilized to either initiate new teams into the processes and skills needed to work together effectively, or revitalize existing teams and move them to higher levels of performance. Candidates for this process include teams at all levels of an organization, from senior management to associates. Teams emerge from the learning experience with a fresh sense of direction and practical strategies for working together to achieve greater results.
The complete teambuilding experience consists of four two-day sessions, with eight to ten weeks between sessions to allow time for learning integration and practice. The entire process can typically be completed in 8-10 months.
IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE that teambuilding is not skills training per se, and that a great deal of how we structure a teambuilding experience (the sequence, what is delivered when, what is gone into in more depth) depends on the initial research we do with the team members and what becomes apparent in the actual sessions. It is also important to note that while we will cover the initial team building blocks in the first 4 days, the last four days are equally important in anchoring the tools, filling in the blanks in terms of team challenges, and making sure the team is well and truly launched on its journey in a sustainable way.
