Team Building Workshops
Building Communication with the Myers Briggs
The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is the most widely used personality instrument in America. Its primary uses are to improve self understanding and to improve group communications. It helps people discover their natural preferences for their source of energy, for information gathering and decision making, and lifestyle preferences. The focus is on appreciating the gifts and strengths of each Type and examining the impact of style differences on working together with their work team. Fun exercises are used to demonstrate each of the four preferences.
Tall Ships
What does it really mean to function effectively as a team? What factors must be present for great teamwork to exist? Studies show that effective team performance is the result of several interrelated factors which create optimal conditions for success.
The Seven C’s are:
Clarity
Capability
Collaboration
Commitment
Communication
Creativity
Continuous Improvement
Tall Ships is a fast-paced game that challenges teams to apply various concepts in assembling the tallest ship mast possible in the least amount of time. Lessons learned from this round are discussed and applied to subsequent rounds. Working in small groups, participants apply the seven C’s to plan and work together to complete tasks. An action-planning phase provides teams with an opportunity to apply learnings to their real-life situation.
