Team-Building: Utilising Practical Insights from Transactional Analysis
Having the insight, knowledge and skills to build effective teams is a core requirement of all leaders. Fully-functioning teams are characterised by high morale and productivity; senses of accomplishment, a desire to complete challenging tasks, solve problems and communicate openly.
Strong teams lead to major gains for all businesses, by allowing individuals to better combine their skills to achieve more and to respond quickly to rapid change. This programme will show you how to generate a sense of involvement and belonging; empowering teams to become mission focused.
Our Team Building programme will help you develop effective techniques that will allow you to build fully-functioning teams. By the end of the programme, you will have learnt:
- How to identify The 4 Life Positions and how they are expressed in teams.
- How to recognise and work with Parent, Adult & Child Ego States to build effective, creative and responsible teams.
- How to diagnose your team’s ‘Stroke Economy’ and how to foster Positive ‘Patterns’.
- The importance of bringing compulsive ‘driver’ behaviours under conscious control.
- How to recognise Winners, Losers and Non-Winners in Teams – and to create opportunities for all team members to be Winners.
- The blocks to effective team behaviour: The Vulnerability Quotient (VQ) ie. Lack of Power, Inability to Handle Stress, Lack of Information, Lack of Options and Immature Thinking.
