Team Building

Challenge

In any organization, especially in a compact one, a disconnected team can have disastrous consequences. Communication and efficiency are paramount - a lack of which can cost the firm not only an engagement, but also its hard won reputation. So a team that is working in silos is never good and must be fixed.

Solution

We suggested a day long, PPA based, Team Building Workshop. The PPA gave people an opportunity to understand themselves and each other in depth and consequently view others’ personalities more objectively. The Workshop allowed coworkers to meet each other in a relaxed, neutral environment.

Results

Many issues, so far unsaid and unaddressed, were articulated and put to discussion in the workshop due to findings of the PPA. The thoughtfully designed exercises required team members to get out of their comfort zone and show their true selves. One of the team members for example, stated that he doesn’t covet a leadership role and would rather be a follower – this was new to the management and helped them align their people strategy accordingly. By the end of this workshop, the team had moved from mere recognition to genuine camaraderie. After the PPA-based workshop, the team members started understanding each other much better and developed a certain level of empathy. The overall positive impact on productivity was evident to the client from the first week itself.
