  • Focused and on-task business planning
  • Action items to move your business forward

"Hey! I want that job!" Discovering and Organizing Teams Around Members' Skills and Talents: Truly successful teams discover and optimize each member's strengths. Can you imagine a soccer, baseball or football team where everyone played the same position? Or an orchestra where everyone played the same instrument? In this workshop, team members will:
  • Discover and express their strengths and talents
  • Actively create and fine-tune new and satisfying job descriptions that optimize their skill sets
  • Learn personal work strategies to increase overall team satisfaction ... and produce results!
Facilitated by Theresa Callahan, founder of Team Synergy Institute, this fun event will call your team members forward in a new way by empowering them to fine-tune their job descriptions and create solutions for increased results.

Creating a Great Place to Work: During this workshop we will work with management and/or employees to facilitate making an optimum place to work. Organizations get:

  • Results that foster job satisfaction and innovation
  • Plans for a workplace where morale is built every day
  • A heightened awareness of what works and where the organization gets "stuck"
  • Action steps to move the organization forward with ease
Facilitated by Team Synergy Institute, you'll do a culture audit and inventory process before this 1-day, off site event, allowing us to co-create a dynamic, timely and effective curriculum focused on the needs of your organization.

Fine-Tuning Your Mission Statement: Someone once said "A Goal Not Written is Only A Wish". Is your company floundering because you don't have goals and mission statements? Or are your goals buried away so you spend much of your time reacting to your work and environment? This workshop will help you:

  • Either create or fine-tune your organization's mission statement to launch your business forward
  • Outline and specify goals and objectives that support your companies mission statement
  • Create awareness of company objectives, so everyone in the company - and the world - knows EXACTLY what your company's goals and objectives are
SWOT Analysis Workshop: Team members will participate in this interactive event to:
  • Explore your organization's Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats
  • Create action items to tackle successful strategic business planning objectives
This is a stand-alone workshop, or an event that can be incorporated into either another Workshop or a Planning Retreat. It is an essential part of business development that requires input from all team players and needs revisited frequently.

Breaking Silos by Creating Cross-Functional Teams: No individual, group or organization is ever in isolation! This powerful, activity-based workshop trains team members to:

  • Work with other groups and individuals to achieve the best results.
  • Create alliances among all participants
  • Increase awareness between teams
  • Provide opportunities to promote positive behaviors in working relationships to avoid toxic interactions
Using the Systems Coaching approach, workshop participants learn to focus on "What's trying to happen" within the organization to move towards excellence.
