Executive Team Building

A Breakthrough in Team Building

Does your team have the tools to overcome constant business disruption and navigate uncertainty to reach its highest level of potential, or are you leaving success to chance? We fuel teams to overcome their hurdles by laying the groundwork to intentionally create the purpose, clarity, and psychological safety they need to thrive.

Let us help you develop an organization that has a deep level of trust, commitment, and accountability. After working with us, your team’s communication skills will improve tenfold, allowing them to be more efficient and cohesive.

We pair two key processes to achieve these results:

  1. The Birkman Method

  2. The Five Dysfunctions of a Team

 

The Birkman Method

A tried-and-true, validated, integrated assessment. It yields a series of related report sets that facilitate team building, leadership development, career counseling, and interpersonal conflict resolution. The Birkman Method® combines motivational, behavioral, and interest evaluation into one single assessment that gives unique insights into underlying motivations and needs. Knowing these underlying motivations and the consequences of unmet needs gives organizational development professionals an effective way to improve workplace performance and reduce conflict.

The 5 Dysfunctions of a Team

The world’s definitive guide for building healthy teams. We help teams breakthrough and overcome each of the following dysfunctions.

DYSFUNCTION #1: ABSENCE OF TRUST
The fear of being vulnerable prevents team members from building trust with each other.

DYSFUNCTION #2: FEAR OF CONFLICT
The desire to preserve artificial harmony stifles productive ideological conflict within the team.

DYSFUNCTION #3: LACK OF COMMITMENT
The lack of clarity and/or buy-in prevents team members from making decisions they stick to.

DYSFUNCTION #4: AVOIDANCE OF ACCOUNTABILITY
The need to avoid interpersonal discomfort prevents team members from holding each other accountable for their behaviors and performance.

DYSFUNCTION #5: INATTENTION TO RESULTS
The pursuit of individual goals and personal status erodes the team's focus on collective success.
