Team Culture Workshop 

Forward-thinking Kiwi businesses such as Air NZ, Westpac, NZ Rugby, XERO and even Netflix are bringing their teams together to collaborate and collectively define the culture that best supports their success. By being proactive, they are building a culture by design rather than leaving it to chance.

Our Culture Workshops are transforming the way team's work together. As a major bonus, it’s fun, interactive and supports conversations that wouldn't usually take place.

Using a simple card deck, we facilitate structured face to face conversations around workplace culture and employee experience. This workshop drives the team towards developing shared commitments, behaviours and actions that will support their individual and team success.

We work through a process to define success then build a game plan with actions, behaviours and commitment that will help us reach our destination.

Team Behavioural Profiling Workshop

Much more than a traditional “team building” session, this 4 hour workshop is designed to help the team better understand themselves, their colleagues and how they can work more effectively together.

Using the DISC framework (the world's #1 behavioural assessment, taken by millions of people every year and estimated to be in use by 75% of Fortune 500 companies) we will explore this straightforward yet powerful four quadrant framework used to articulate the common ways that all human beings tend to behave and communicate.

Teams are made up of unique individuals with different behavioural and working styles. Learning about our own tendencies and others' preferences is key to achieving real teamwork and results.

This workshop is designed to:

  • Provide a common language to help your team better understand one another and work together
  • Consider strategies to deal with conflict effectively by learning adaptive behaviours
  • Act as a springboard for conversations and develop strategies to maximise cooperation - within the team and also with external customers and stakeholders
  • Increase trust and understanding between team members and build mutual respect
  • Support teams that want to experience a more harmonious workplace culture with lower levels of tension and conflict

Assessment:

Prior to attending the workshop everyone will be asked to complete an online assessment. This will be emailed directly to each person and takes about 20 minutes to complete. a comprehensive report will be given to each person during the workshop which will be the basis of our discussions.

The Workshop:

This session is highly interactive and fun. There will be plenty of aha! moments and laughs as we move towards defining your “rules of engagement”. These “rules of engagement” will include how to (and not to) communicate with each other, the potential value of each team member and how to get the most from each other.

DISC is a very versatile tool commonly used in the following functions:

  • Team Collaboration/Effectiveness
  • Leadership Development
  • Communication Effectiveness
  • Recruitment and Selection
  • Position Benchmarking
  • Sales Development
  • Customer Service Training
  • Coaching
  • Engagement/Motivation
  • Conflict Resolution
  • Culture/TransformationPersonal Effectivenes
