FROM PERSONALITY
CLASHES TO PARTNERS:
Capitalizing on Differences to Build a High-Performing
Team
Format: ½ day to more in-depth full-day workshop; each
participant takes online assessment
Who Should Attend: Leaders and all team members
News flash! In case you haven’t noticed, people are
different! Those differences can either wreck the
best-laid plans or become a powerful springboard to
success.
Newly-formed teams; struggling, experienced teams; and
even high-performing teams will dramatically increase
their effectiveness by participating in this hands-on
workshop. Leaders and team members will acquire
knowledge and develop the skills that allow the team to
capitalize on differences, personality styles, values,
roles and functions, and talents. Participants will not
only assess and understand their own styles; they will
also learn how to make educated guesses about the
personalities and preferences of others, enabling them
to create connections and maintain productive
relationships despite differences.
Participants in this interactive workshop will:
assess and understand their own communication styles,
values, motivations, and relationship behavior
preferences;
identify and deploy their own strengths at various
stages in team projects;
learn the critical do’s and don’ts for relating with
people who are very different from them;
find out why many conflicts are based in perceived
clashes in values, and how this does not have to be so;
discover how to make differences work for the team, not
against it;
learn to actually be thankful for the things about their
teammates that used to drive them nuts.
