exercises help the participants get to know each other better and start the
learning process. Individual and team learning objectives are identified.

team to work TEAMWORK
INITIATIVES
give the work
to the team Outdoor Activities: The activities and
games are carefully sequenced based on the initial
needs assessment. Each activity or
initiative is about 20 to 40 minutes in duration including a debriefing facilitated
by the trainer
Participation: Team members are asked to participate on the basis of
equality. By dealing with each other in a non-hierarchical way old patterns can
be transformed and each member gains leadership experience.
Action/Reflection: After each activity the trainer helps the group reflect
on what just took place. Helpful and
non-helpful behaviors and attitudes are brought to awareness. In a
non-judgmental manner the group discusses what worked or what did not work to
further task accomplishment and group cohesion.
Group discussions led by
the facilitator provide the team members with valuable information, insights
and feedback that can be used to build teamwork and leadership skills, mutual
trust and confidence.
APPLICATION
The
team reviews the learning and insights gained from the training and how they
will be applied. Action plans are
developed to tackle key challenges.
