Solution:

Create-Learning will lead team building, accountability and collaboration based initiatives.

We will administer a team building pre-assessment and deliver a report of the pre-assessment to all the team members, fine tuning the facilitation and team development to match the areas that the team feels are needed in accordance to the pre-assessment.

We will facilitate and train the department on communication techniques that focus on listening for enhanced understanding as well as skills to motivate others to do great work.

We will facilitate and train the staff in effectively building a team using the “Team Dimension Cycle” highlighting the need for constant measurement of success and failure with the teams’ projects. Additionally we will facilitate all the team members in a discussion about sharing best practices and learned failures within the department.

The organization will leave the team building portion with an action plan on increasing communication, sharing best practices and learned failures.
