A highly participative course where participants will experiment with a range of approaches and draw on each others' experiences. With a mixture of tutor input, plenary discussions, practical indoor exercises and small group working exercises and self-assessment questionnaires, each used to develop deeper understand of the issues facing you as you attempt to build effective teams.
Participants will also have the opportunity, through the use of CCTV and the self assessment questionnaires to monitor the changes in their skills and behaviour - towards effective team dynamics and team communication skills/interventions - during the course.
