Team building skills
Force team ahead!

A successful team is a group of individuals who, together, make things happen. This course will help you make the right decisions to build and develop a better team.

Talent spotting

  • Do people fall into recognisable types?
  • Is there a danger of ‘type casting?
  • How important are first impressions?
  • Is seeing potential enough to take a chance?
  • What if the chemistry isn’t right?
  • What effect do strong individuals have on the team?
  • How do we hang on to a 'rising star’?

Building a team that works

  • What’s more important, skills or personalities?
  • How often should the team meet?
  • Will a natural order emerge?
  • How can we make sure everyone has their say?
  • Is it necessary to have clear demarcation lines?
  • Where does ‘team spirit’ come from?
  • What makes a good team player?

Specialists, including square pegs in round holes

  • Should staff be treated the same?
  • Can we justify spending more time with one person than another?
  • How much extra support is it fair to give?
  • Should we make allowances where special skills are involved?
  • How should we handle a massive ego?
  • Are 'creative types' always a handful?
  • Should we avoid ‘boat rockers’ altogether?
