Teams that work as a single entity rather than
as a group of individuals, are teams that succeed. Getting to the
heart of what makes each team member work as part of that collaborative
is the key to developing a competitive edge. The process that brings
results is Birkman.
Birkman Teambuilding is a highly effective tool for use during
corporate mergers or aquisitions, downsizing or when creating a
work group with individuals drawn from diverse geographical, cultural
or corporate backgrounds. Through the use of easy-to-understand
terms, simple charts and plain business language, its strategies
help align the entire team to the accomplishment of its goals.
Birkman targets specific areas that impact team performance and
equips each member to with the ability to -
• Collaborate with others
• Accept change and act on it
• Accept accountability
• Drive decision making & productivity.
Becoming a great team means embracing individual differences, knowing
critical stress factors, being able to identity potential conflict
between individuals and learning how to work through them to reach
positive outcomes. By moving beyond simple icebreaking, we address
the pivotal problems that can challenge a team’s success.
• Lack of trust.
• Quiet resistance or passive-aggressive behaviours.
• Feelings of lack of belonging or solidarity.
• Low energy levels experienced in team activities.
Using Birkman to help teams make the most of their collective strengths,
will result in increased individual and team productivity, improved
motivation and reduced stress. Team members will learn how to be
factual with one another, build clarity through a common behaviour-based
language and use effective tools for self management.
