Office Team Building
”Teams share the burden and divide the grief.”
- Doug Smith
Just because a group of people work together in the same office
or same functional area does not mean that they will work co-operatively together as a team.
Symptoms that suggest
a group is lacking in teamwork can include ....
- individuals making decisions without
any thought or consultation with others in their group,
- an undercurrent of tension between some mebers of the team
- a lack of energy and participation in team meetings
- group members who do not recognise when their colleagues are
struggling and may need a helping hand,
- a group that experiences frequent arguments over who is responsible
for what tasks
- cliques forming within the group or some individuals feeling alienated
Absenteeism, staff
turnover and a fragmented approach to service delivery can be the consequences of a workgroup that is lacking in co-operative
teamwork spirit.
We
can design an office team building
workshop for your workgroup, aimed at .....

Rejuvenating a sense of common
purpose within the team

expectations of each other to ensure clarity of roles in the team - Evaluating how effectively the team is interacting with customers

strategies for building morale and open communication within the team
