Team Development

  • Encourages individual leaders and teams to align goals with organization strategy
  • Accelerates the performance of newly formed teams
  • Ensures teams stay focused, efficient, and effective
  • Helps members adjust to new and different team dynamics

All teams are unique and act accordingly; teams at various levels of the organization require different team building skills. All team building efforts involve understanding the unique challenges faced by each team and identifying the strengths that individual team members will bring to the table. Custom solutions are designed that will have a meaningful and enduring impact on the team's and the organization's continuing success.

Successful leadership teams communicate messages with greater clarify, make decisions more effectively and efficiently, and ultimately deliver the desired business results by aligning the entire organization around strategies and actions that build organizational strength and agility.

Meeting Facilitation

Experienced and unbiased meeting facilitators bring a sense of fairness and professionalism to group meetings, helping to ensure efficiency, productivity, and harmony.

Meeting facilitation begins by working with organization leaders to define meeting objectives and identity the key stakeholders, essential participants, and organizational sponsors. This is followed by developing a well-planned meeting agenda that includes the proper balance of presentations, group activities, and open discussions.

Comprehensive planning efforts and facilitator experience result in a well-run meeting that employs business-based measures of success to clearly identify a meeting's achievements.

Meeting facilitators work with the organization post-meeting to ensure the meeting's agreements come to fruition and action plans are executed. This is followed by planning and implementing follow-up events, status meetings, and progress checkups.

Facilitated meetings include:

  • Offsite retreats
  • Strategic planning and action planning
  • Team building
  • Problem solving and conflict resolution
