Leadership and Team Building Workshops

How does it feel to hear a 'Yes, and...' versus a 'Yeah, but...' when you are collaborating with others?
How does telling a story with a partner one-word-at-a-time help you reflect on being a good listener?

These are some of the questions we will dive into during these invigorating sessions that encourage a collaborative environment, boost creativity, and deepen connection.

The Foundation of the Workshops

The Foundation of the  workshops

STEP 1: Self-Reflection

When we learn about ourselves we are more open and authentic with the people around us. We begin to see ourselves as part of a community.

STEP 2: Mindset Shift

With self-awareness we begin to shift our mindset from one of judgement, to one of curiosity. When we take a moment to notice, we develop a stronger sense of connection.

STEP 3: Group Connection

When a group feels connected, it leads to a sense of compassion and respect for each other. We begin to build trust. Connection is what brings a team together.

STEP 4: Collaboration

When a team is connected with trust and respect, they work and grow together with a strong sense of engagement. There is space for spontaneity and flexibility. Collaboration is what leads to innovation, constructive dialogue, shared learning and taking risks to discover new opportunities. Collaboration is what moves a team forward.
