Most
team building courses in the UK are outdoor activity centres, with
only a very
indirect connection to
improving organisational performance. Have you ever thought that
it may be far more productive to create team building activities in-house?
Have you considered attending a workshop to learn how to construct team
building activities that could be continually used for both team
development and improving performance?
Our Corporate Team Building Courses become
an integral part of your Performance Improvement Activities
This approach, not only builds teams amongst the group
attending, but delegates learn how to create team building activities for
their staff or other groups, which will automatically lead to measurable
improvements in performance.
This Performance Improvement Workshop
leaves participants with a real enthusiasm to use complex performance problems to develop even
more high performance teams. How? Well, it shows you how to create the same psychological triggers that the outdoor activity centres
create to ensure that people work as effective teams.
For
example, how many of these do you recognise as Team Building elements that
you would expect to see at
an outdoor Course?
-
A challenge that none of the team
members has any preconceived ideas how to solve.
-
A challenge that cannot be solved by individuals alone, but requires every team
member to learn how to co-operate with all the other team members.
-
A
clear way for the team to know at exactly what point they have "won" the
challenge
-
A perception that overcoming the challenge, or winning, is their highest
priority
-
Competition against demanding deadlines or other teams
-
Activities that encourage members to gradually specialise in roles for
which they are most effective.
How
many of these psychological states are found in the everyday situations
in the
normal working environment? Indeed, can you even remember the last time at
work that you felt the excitement
of being in a high performance team? Most people, when asked that
question, can often only remember once or twice in their whole working careers.
The
simple fact is that even if a group has been on an
outdoor team building course, unless the same type of team building activities
are recreated back at work, they will progressively cease to work as a team.
Performance
Improvement Workshops are suitable for all types of organisation,
whether they
are
Commercial, Non-Profit, Central or Local Government. They are available
in London and throughout the UK. |
