Straight Talking with Team Talk Print

 

How can banana skins, crystal balls and traffic lights be a

recipe for a more successful team?

 

banana-skin.jpgThe nature of team working is complex and dynamic and whether you work together in the same office or are divided by an ocean, effective meaningful dialogue is the cornerstone of the high performing team.

Investing in a Team Talk session is a fast, effective and unique way of developing understanding between new and existing teams by exploring real experiences together in a fun and relaxed way......even when you have to talk about some of the more challenging aspects of working together.

Team Talk is a powerful team development tool in a simple board game format, lasting approximately 3 hours. An interactive Team Talk session helps to accelerate new teams though the relationship building stage, quickly creating a climate for effective team work and encouraging clear communication about what team members want from each other and the goals they share.

Existing teams can benefit from using Team Talk to facilitate a constructive review of past difficulties and successes, using the tool to consolidate the learning from successful experiences of working and achieving together and encouraging clear communication between team members.

All teams also benefit from identifying obstacles to more effective team working and action planning to overcome them using positive, team friendly ideas. Real teams that have used Team Talk have said......

"The format created opportunities to explore subjects that probably wouldn't have cropped up in day to day conversation"

"It gave me some useful insight into my colleagues and their thinking"

"I'd recommend it because it's a fun way to communicate and it really promotes open discussion about both positive and negative aspects of the team working together. It's a unique tool"

To help your team accelerate their development, achieve their potential and avoid time and money sapping problems, call us now to find out more or to arrange a Team Talk session in your workplace.

 

Making meetings "pointless"......

A true facilitator is a neutral servant of the group, intervening to improve progress and process, encouraging maximum participation but not to value or contribute ideas. If you want to be fully "in" the discussion and debate, then letting Clear Thinking take on the facilitation role makes good sense.    

We optimise participation, keep people engaged and eliminate the "yawn factor" - some clients  have even ditched Power Point in favour of harnessing the "thinking power" of the group - we keep strictly to time, get really focused on critical outcomes and develop individual contributions to enhance the value of meetings for everyone involved. 

If your meetings could benefit from a little Clear Thinking then please tell us......
