Building and Leading Effective Teams

Course overview

Duration: 1 day (6 hours)

Everyone works in teams today in one way or another. Whatever we do in the workplace we need to interact with another person or a number of people at various times. It is important that we know how to communicate, how to listen, how to work together and how to overcome conflict when it arises in our workplace.

Challenges are often created by a lack of trust, poor conflict handling skills, a lack of shared vision and confusion over roles and responsibilities. This course will help delegates understand how to encourage more productive team working in the workplace. By the end of the course delegates will be able to describe what makes a High Performing Team and realistically assess their current strengths and weaknesses.

Delegates will also be able to identify and plan behavioural changes that will improve the team’s performance.

The course is experiential based with lots of learning by doing activities, reflecting and discussion.  This will allow team members to get to know/improve their knowledge of team colleagues and energise or re-energise teams.
