Experiential Team Building
While everyone recognizes the value of teamwork, not every organization has taken the time to understand how to build and sustain a team. Leveraging best practices from the military, sports teams and the corporate world, we have identified four areas that are common to all high-performing teams.
Personal Responsibility: team members desire to master the basics, take pride in their work and are committed to a growth mindset for the betterment of the organization.
Rewired Culture: everything in the organization is built around the team concept including workspace design, incentives, and measures of success. Team members view themselves and their contributions as a part of an interdependent organization.
Common Challenge: adversity forges teams. Regardless of the nature of the trial, the end result is that members are brought closer together when faced with a common enemy.
Shared Purpose: As members begin to trust each other, the organizations values and mission become clearer. Team members no longer rally around the team, they are focused on the team mission.
