Training course

Team Day

The purpose of this highly interactive, practical and fun team development event is for team members to learn more about themselves and the different working styles of others.

Personal effectiveness and communication skills influence both style and behaviour, which has important implications for the development and performance of teams. Further development in these skills will have an impact on many areas of day-to-day work e.g. meetings, problem solving; time-management; decision-making and all aspects of communication.

Delegates will have an opportunity to focus on their own personal effectiveness and style and through this, further develop their interpersonal skills.

Each delegate will receive a personal profile, which provides them with information on their personality type, as an aid to understand more about self and others. This will then be used to identify strategies for enhancing working relationships to maximise team performance.

The Profile will be used as a working document throughout the programme as a basis for self-analysis and group discussions.
