Overcoming the Five Dysfunctions of a Team – The trend in the developed world is to get skilled workers into the workforce as fast as possible in order to fill the needs of our growing economy and diminishing supply of skilled employees. Gone are the days of the ‘well rounded’, student who is adept not only in his/her area of expertise, but possesses the skills to work within the framework of a team. This workshop is invaluable to Corporate Employers whose success is derived from not only having highly skilled employees in their technical areas, but employees who can work together collaboratively, and build a team based on trust. The ‘Five Dysfunctions of a Team’ workshop is based on the lighthearted and humorous approach of renowned author Patrick Lencioni. Get to the root of why dysfunction happens in the workplace. Is your group working together as a team, or working against each other? The workshop includes a ‘Team Assessment Tool’ to help you analyze where your team is at, and what you need to do to get to where you want to be.
