Team Development
Effective teamwork is an outright necessity
in today's hotly competitive global economy.
Companies engage us to build new teams into
productive units, or to build under performing
teams into "high performance" teams.
Bottom line, we help teams "step up"
to the next level of effectiveness, regardless
of their current level of functionality. All
of our team development work is aimed squarely
at enabling teams to reach their business objectives.
Our team development activities include...
- Coach the Team Leader: Team effectiveness
begins with an effective leader. We coach
the team leader to improve his/her leadership
and team process skills.
- Team Retreats: We work
with the entire team to lay a solid foundation
for effective teamwork in a series of team
meetings and retreats.
- Coach the
Team: In addition to
working with the entire leadership team,
we provide individual coaching for each team
member aimed at enabling them to develop
essential teamwork skills.
Culture Development
Corporate culture is difficult to define, but
when you have an unhealthy one, you know it.
In fact, major corporations are beginning
to recognize that without changing their company
culture no amount of restructuring or job cutting
will keep them competitive. In fact, many corporate
turnaround fail for this very reason. Our
culture development activities may be implemented
one on one with the CEO/team leader or with
the team in a series of team meetings or retreats.
Some of the key situations that we help
clients address include...
-
Revitalizing
a Moribund Culture: Many company
cultures evolved in a different and outdated
competitive business climate and are
now obstacles to success and staying
competitive. We help our clients revitalize
moribund cultures into vital, flexible
and adaptable cultures that offer a distinct
competitive advantage.
- New Company Start Up: With a start
up, we help lay down a strong cultural foundation
built upon the values of the company
leaders.
- Cultural Scale Up: We assist the
CEO to scale an effective culture up as the
company grows.
- Dysfunctional Culture: We may be
brought in to build an effective culture
out of a dysfunctional one (i.e. low trust,
ineffective teamwork, poor communication
and high turnover, etc.).
