This highly interactive workshop encourages networking and collaboration, and strengthens leadership attributes among participants.
Project Team Dynamics: Enhanced Performance, Improved Results
No project can succeed without a project team. More likely than not, your project will also require a number of participants from different areas within your organization. And in today's environment, you are not guaranteed to get everyone you need, forcing you to make the most out of your team when doing more with less. Regardless of whom and how many you have on your team, you cannot succeed in meeting deliverables and deadlines unless you act as a high-functioning team. This highly interactive workshop focuses on simple techniques to enhance team behavior and group dynamics. Attendees will leave armed with easy-to-adopt practices to enhance team members' awareness and accountability - resulting in improved decisions, efficiency, and business results.

Release Your Creative BIRD
Innovation is about doing things differently and doing different things. It's critical for companies that want to remain competitive in the long term. Yet, most companies are cutting back on innovation and creativity, focusing on cost cutting, people cutting and reducing the number of priority projects. This program is designed to provoke thought about the extent to which creativity supports project success. It challenges participants to adopt BIRD behaviors: bravery, inquisitiveness, receptiveness and drive. Not intended as a ‘test' of creativity, this program helps individuals identify some of their personal barriers to creativity and learn how to adopt creative practices to enhance project outcomes.
