Team Development
"How people feel about working at a company can account for 20 to 30 percent of business performance. "
- Is your work team operating at peak performance or plodding along?
- Does the team support a clear vision, or are individuals just doing their jobs?
- Are your employees happy, motivated and energized at work?
- Are individual style differences appreciated, or a source of friction and irritation?
- Are team members aligned and focused toward a common goal, or drowning in a riptide of individual chaos?
Teambuilding can quickly align and focus a group's energy. Whether it's an existing team that needs to improve performance, or a new team that wants to jumpstart its results, teambuilding can:
- Align the team's vision and goals.
- Clarify individual and team purpose, direction, and expected results.
- Simplify communications, so the work gets done fast.
- Assess and define individual problem-solving styles, promoting understanding and appreciation.
- Define and remove barriers.
- Prioritize tasks that get the team to "done"
At JumpStart Results our teambuilding approach is both practical and energizing. We will:·
- Meet with leadership to define success.
- Assess individuals, and collate data to create a team profile.
- Debrief with the leader.
- Conduct team workshop(s) to build vision, role clarity, ground rules, key values, style awareness and action steps.
- Follow up to support successful implementation, as the team gains energy and momentum.
