Teamwork Fundamentals

Learn Teamwork Fundamentals to Build Stronger Teams

Our Five Behaviours – Personal Development workshop helps participants become better teammates – whether that’s part of a project team, as a member of a leadership team or leading a team. It’s ideal for team leaders, up-and-coming leaders and project teams who report to different divisions. 

By integrating the model from Lencioni’s book, The Five Dysfunctions of a Team into real-life work team situations, we help everyone understand what good teamwork looks like and give them the tools to change. Learning how to move from silent competition with peers to working as a cohesive team, while also leading direct reports, is all part of teamwork fundamentals.

The Workshop Overview

Our one-day, assessment-based workshop is based entirely on the best-seller, The Five Dysfunctions of a Team. In this course, participants assess their own approach to teamwork, gaining personalized insights on how they can more effectively work with others. They also learn and master critical behaviours and interpersonal skills needed to work effectively as part of a team.

Participants are empowered as they consider their approach to teamwork and shape new, more productive behaviours to increase productivity. Learning areas include self-awareness, self-management, team building, managing conflict and communication skills. This includes bringing the language needed for good teamwork to the teams they are on and the teams they lead. It completely redefines what it means to work together to build a culture of teamwork.

The Personalized Team Profile

This program uses an incredibly thorough and accurate assessment tool called The Five Behaviours Personal Development Profile.

Before and After the Workshop

In many ways, the follow-up effort after a workshop is just as important as the workshop itself. Your participants will have a great day of learning in the workshop but it’s how they apply that learning back at work, in the real world, that is going to make the difference and boost your ROI.

Setting Up Success before the Workshop

Prior to the course, participants will complete an online leadership assessment based on the book, The Five Dysfunctions of a Team, called The Personal Development Profile. This generates a customized, incredibly insightful and useful profile for them that is used throughout the course.

Applying the Learning after the Workshop

To ensure we deliver the most success for your participants, Padraig follows-up the workshop with a number of methods including:

Follow-up emails reminding participants of different parts of the curriculum and prompting them to think about that content and to apply it in that moment at work.

Each follow-up touch point also includes tools the participant can download to apply the learning.
