Courses for Work Teams

Effective Meetings

This is the one course that every group – and executive - can benefit from! The curriculum focuses on how to avoid wasted time, keep the participants engaged and increase commitment to the decisions taken. We teach the basic skills of facilitation and the communication tools needed to take your next meeting to a new level.

Functional Teams

These days working in teams is more important —and more challenging— than ever. In this course we work directly with team members and their leaders to clarify expectations, ground rules, roles and responsibilities, development and discussion of proposals, decision-making, dealing with conflict and performance monitoring.

Decision Making

This course systematically “takes apart” the decision-making process, helping you understand the complex factors that shape decisions. Then we “put the pieces back together” so you learn how to avoid the traps that lead to bad decisions. Leaders, facilitators and members of collaborative teams find this course especially enlightening and useful.
