Rely on teams to achieve objectives; find solutions to problems; and develop new products, services, and directions. This program integrates the latest approaches to the art and science of teamwork to inspire you, design and implement more effective teams in your organization.
The program challenges participants with real-world problems and provides top-quality, individual feedback on performance. Highly experiential and collaborative, the program focuses on internal team dynamics (leadership roles, communication skills, and conflict) and external team dynamics (distance teamwork and networking), as well as on compensation and networking. The program concludes with an exercise that challenges team creativity and performance under time constraints. The emphasis is on optimizing the performance of the manager as both a team player and a team leader in stable or ad hoc work teams.
