Create greater insight and understanding of each other’s differences
Gain greater insight and understanding of each other’s differences, both personally and professionally with this team development workshop.
Explore the differences
You’ll explore your own preferences and perceptions, while actively learning about each other’s differences.
With this active and humorous workshop, you will learn to appreciate differences and see them as a strength.
From frustration to respectful insight
“You should treat others the way you want to be treated”, they say. The thing is, in practice, we all have our own unique preferences that are often nowhere near those of our colleagues. At the same time, in our working lives, we are exposed to huge amounts of information that needs to be processed and acted upon quickly.
Our perception and understanding of information varies widely from person to person. These variations in a team and workgroup are the source of many conflicts, communication breakdowns and misunderstandings. But fortunately, your differences are also the source of success and the foundation of a strong organization!
Understanding and insight are key to team success
The key to success lies in understanding ourselves as well as the diversity of those we work with.
The workshop gives you the opportunity to strengthen both self-awareness and insight into the many nuances of your team’s experiences and perceptions of ordinary everyday situations. And we will find examples of your differences in specific incidents in your own daily communication.
There will undoubtedly be “aha moments”, funny everyday examples and probably also awkward (self-)realizations.
The foundation for strong and effective teamwork
“Understanding yourself and your team” is a workshop designed for those who want a solid foundation for further team development.
Here you lay the foundation for the next step towards becoming a performance-oriented team. But first you need to create a foundation built on well-being, respect and understanding of each other’s differences.
A combination of theories, practical exercises and group discussions
The workshop alternates between theory and basic methods to fun and practical exercises and plenary discussions. There will be AHA experiences and concrete examples drawn from your everyday life.
Full course day with teambuilding
A full course day can be put together to combine your workshop with tailor-made teambuilding activities. Several of our teambuilding concepts can be customized, so you get a day with a common thread from workshop to activities
This way, your team development theories and group discussions will be even more rooted in active learning and we can challenge your differences in more practical activities.
Get Insights Discovery® people profiles
A particularly powerful tool for creating both self-awareness and understanding of differences in teams is the use of personality type profiles, such as the widely recognized personality type tool “Insights Discovery®”
We are an accredited partner of Insights Discovery® and can help you create personal profiles and in-depth reports for your employees. We are also happy to provide individual coaching sessions afterwards.
