Develop teams

In an increasingly remote world where with more autonomy and flexibility - it's essential to keep sight of what time together gives us. Burnout, low team connection and feelings of loneliness are significant contributors to poor employee well-being, so giving teams time together is still essential. 

We can work with you to provide team days that make your time together unique and productive. We run workshops that bring teams together to talk about change and help them build inclusive, resilient and empowered team cultures that can cope with constant change.

In the video below, you get a feel for one of our workshops and what people say about them, followed by descriptions of six of our favourite workshops to run with teams. Please get in touch to discuss how we can help your team connect.  

Workshops to help those leading change

1. Change diagnostic
   A workshop that allows a team to talk about what needs to change and how to do that: using psychological techniques from our kitbag, we help teams talk about what needs to stop, start and continue. All in a safe space where we create the psychological safety you need to have a full and productive conversation about change.    

2. Change narrative
   Every organisation is made up of different employee groups (tribes), and each one will have its own narrative and corresponding learning journey. These workshops show how to approach change in a way that recognises the different tribes within an organisation and how to target the change to each audience. It also promotes understanding how language and tone of voice influence how people react to change. 

3. Change planning
   These sessions look at clearly defining the vision and goals for change. By understanding the motivating factors and barriers to change, the workshop will enable teams to assess the readiness and impact of change. Then, build a roadmap plan to prioritise work into a backlog and sprints, all within an agile approach of retrospectives and constant learning.

Workshops to help teams thrive

1. Time together
   Sometimes, a team needs time together, and we can help. We provide a fun and safe space to build trust across a team. We can combine this with Lumina Spark personality profiling to allow a team to see their diversity of styles and learn how to get the most from all those differences. We can also work with you to help that team keep being its best through follow-up sessions. Providing dedicated monthly or half days where teams get to think about what behaviour change work they need to do to ensure they operate at their best, adjusting the topics to suit your team's changing needs. 

2. Psychological safety
   Psychological safety is a culture that allows teams to come forward with ideas and say when they see something not working. It is a vital component of empowered teams that must innovate approaches in response to constant change and VUCA challenges. In these workshops, we help teams understand what psychological safety is and why it's vital for high-performing teams. We help the team see where they are now and where they need to get to, teaching practices that accompany psychological safety. 

3. Building empowered team cultures
   These workshops change workplace habits and help create new working practices. During the sessions, teams use our Team Guidebook process, shown below, to help them talk about how they want to work together to create a psychologically safe team culture that gets the best out of everyone. Delegates leave with a behavioural blueprint for new ways of working.
