Consulting

Team Building is an excellent resource for teams to improve overall effectiveness in all areas of a company. It is valuable to identify prior to a session exactly what the stakeholders would like to accomplish from the session. There should be a pre-program consultation to gain this understanding and commitment to the process.

From this information, exercises are selected to promote communication and give participants first-hand experience in learning skills, attitudes, goals, engagement, expectations and ways to develop a culture that will support these goals. These exercises are interactive and improvisational, meant to maximize the creativity of individuals and the group. Laughter and fun are part of the curriculum.

Participants will not only gain new perspectives about issues within their organizations but also about new paradigms that promote change.

As an alternative, teams may want to engage in pure creativity—painting on a canvas for pure enjoyment and camaraderie. These classes can be held outdoors or inside. A community project could also be incorporated to provide an element of service and community outreach.
