TEAM BUILDING
Develop High Performance Teams
Organizations need strong leadership, open collaboration, and effective teamwork. We specialize in facilitating the development of high-performance teams. With 25 years of experience, and certification in tools such as Everything DiSC and The Five Behaviors, we assess specific needs, build new skills, teach conflict management, and integrate new insights back into the workplace. If your team morale is low, or you just want to work together more effectively, we can help.
When you come to the fork in the road, take it.

The Challenge
How could we improve the vibe in a public health office where some employees acted as if they were self-employed, others felt micro-managed, and trust and morale were low?
The Story
We recommended (first to the leaders and then to the group as a whole) an action plan that included:
- group work to build trust, including some work on strengths and different styles;
- teaching conflict resolution tools
- ongoing coaching of the leader
- a high-level change training for a manager
After three half-day sessions of group work, trust began to improve and, after being held accountable for things they were not doing, two employees left. Through coaching, the leader began to micro-manage less and the vibe changed.
The Outcome
Before-and-after surveys indicated that, over the course of our work, the scores for individual morale went up 41%; for office morale, 138%; likelihood to recommend the likelihood to recommend the district office as a place to work increased 70%; and commitment to ongoing employment at the office went up 26%.
