Overview:

The foundation of a successful team relies upon understanding yourself and other team members. The ability to work with other people (who might be very different from you) effectively is a key ingredient to a productive team. In this program, we will complete a self-assessment and a team maze project to explore being an effective team player and dealing with others who may not be!

Objectives:

As a result of this program, participants should be able to:

• Gain insight into your own team behavior.
  
• Increase your understanding of other team member’s behaviors.
  
• Understand your preferred communication style and how that may differ from others.
  
• List assertive communication strategies to get what you need and help others get what they need.
  
• Describe how you typically deal with conflict and difficult team members and what may or may not be effective.
  
• Continue to work on fostering teamwork on your team.
