LS 205: Building Teams: Translating a Positive Workplace into Productivity

The Challenge

The best teams are motivated by positive influences. We know that.

But many of us have ached in a job that motivates through threats or fear (the “my way or the highway” management style).

We think it’s important to develop leaders who know how to build strong teams in a positive workplace.

Because it’s way more fun to go to work because you want to and not because you have to—because you don’t want to lose your job. You need the health-care coverage.

The Workshop

The workshop will help every individual in every organization because it will generate morale, build teams, and make the organization an attractive workplace.

We’ll discuss four key concepts—and more:

• The several ways to turn dysfunctional groups into high-performing teams. (And vice-versa.)
• The value of humor, patience, and forgiveness in building teams.
• The means of incorporating new hires—or transferred employees—into the team.
• The brands—the hallmarks—of teams.
