Team Building

Here is a quick team building activity for you and your team. Do this first on your own and then

invite your team to do it as small groups of 2-5 people.

Task: Place these 7 team building stages in sequential order. A tip- 4 is input (creating) stages and

3 are output (sustaining) stages.

• Renewal - why continue?

• Orientation-why am I a member of the team?

• High Performance- Wow

• Implementation-who does what, when and where?

• Goal Role Clarity- what are we doing?

• Trust Building - who are you?

• Commitment-how will we do it?

Task: Now get your teams to see if they can put these team building stages in a sequence.

What was their result and was it different from yours?

Which stages are neglected in your team and why?

What stage are your teams spending most of their time in?

"Strategy and Teams" will facilitate Team Building Workshops and Retreats to address these issues.

We will provide a complete range of services, from facilitation through capacity building,

communication design and high end graphic tools (Team Performance System of Drexler/Sibbet)

Task: If you were to draw a picture of your team-what would it look like now? What do you want

the team image, reputation and brand to look like in a year from now?

We have both indoor and outdoor activities.

Strategy Facilitation

Can each member of your senior team tell you the top 5 bold steps that your strategy will be

focusing on in the next year, three(3) years and five (5) years. Can they also tell you their

departmental steps to help achieve the company’s 5 bold steps?

We can help facilitate Strategic Workshops, so you can ensure that the "story" you are all telling is

aligned and practical with a plan.

At "Strategy and Teams" we use internationally recognised, highly customisable tools and

processes to generate dialogue, create alignment, articulate a vision, and catalyse action.

We will help your team to see the big picture and move toward its desired future using our skills,

creativity and high-impact graphic tools.

The majority of our facilitation work has its roots in Strategic Visioning and we use tools from “The

Grove Consultants International"

We specialise in senior leadership gatherings, as well as rolling these messages out to the rest of

the organisation - Top down. We do this "with you" and not "to you".

Leadership Workshops – "Strategy and Teams" offers a high-level facilitation team who develop

customized leadership interventions that align senior teams and inspire break-through thinking.

Conference Facilitation

Your conference is an extremely important communication platform that is a fantastic opportunity

to align and renew.

Wouldn’t it be great if everyone who walked away from the conference was blown away, not by

the expensive gifts or food but by the messages and engagement around these key business

drivers?

We will help you to create the platforms for participation that enable your teams to meet your

brand and facilitate understanding of your vision.

Strategy and Teams will bring your teams together and create a "serious but fun" atmosphere.

Business Simulations

Simulations are among the most powerful and beneficial of

leadership development techniques because they are based in

action and practical application. Participants are stimulated to

think creatively and work in teams, and most importantly apply

the knowledge and skills they have learned in concrete and life-

like, but risk-free, situations. Through strategic management

simulations, skills are developed in executives that equip them to

devise and execute market-focused strategies better, and to utilize a range of variables and

methods that will drive growth in the real world.

- We have over 50 Business Simulation Activities

- Risk free learning

- You could compress a year of business into a two (2) hour session

- Massive learning curve
