Communication Professional Development Training for Teams

This is a crucial workshop for all teams who work in a fast-paced environment and hybrid teams, with a mix of face to face and remote workers.

Positive and authentic communication across a team is a foundation of building trust. Whilst we all aspire to open and honest communication so often it can be a challenge to achieve for a whole host of reasons.

Powerful Communication includes both appreciating positive output and performance from a team member and giving regular feedback across a team – with positive intent.
It seems this vital skill for all team members is often one of the biggest challenges.

Have you ever thought-
“I should say something but there never seems to be the right time”
Or have you encountered the situation when a team member may consistently fix another team members error but not mention it because they don’t want to upset them.
“If I wait long enough, it will sort itself out.”

or Have you noticed someone is doing really well in an area- but you fail to tell them you’re observations, or pass the positive things on to your manager? In reality – we need to give 6 x more positive feedback to our teammates as constructive feedback. Did you know 67% of teammates say they get to little positive feedback? Leaders are often expected to be the ones who solely give both positive and critical feedback in a team – yet the best teams have a consistent stream of performance base feedback across a team…and the most powerful practise is to ensure there is positive intent.

If you are keen to shift the communication dynamics in your team – embedding positive communication into your culture will be a game-changing shift that you won’t look back from.

Workshop Objectives:
Performance-based communication can and should be given up down and laterally within a work environment. Giving positive and constructive performance-based feedback effectively is a skill. And like all skills, it takes practice to build your confidence and improve.

Insights into current research into the 3 core areas of positive communication
Awareness of our own experience in receiving positive and constructive feedback and the impact it had on our performance
Use communication skills to improve relationships by recognising the signs that it is time to talk about a situation
Identify emotional and behavioural barriers and ways to overcome reluctance to receiving and giving feedback
Golden rules for the first 30 seconds
Use techniques to constructively initiate a feedback discussion with a team member, peer or your manager
Prepare and deliver feedback with positive intent and in a way that builds confidence in what you are saying
Use techniques to prepare for receiving feedback, judge its validity and make decisions on what to do with the feedback
Identify practical strategies to assist when responses to feedback are unexpected
Practise strength-based feedback which acknowledges the personal qualities that a team member brings to their role and contributes to a team for the collective benefit of team dynamics.

Team Flow on Benefits

Why invest in a team workshop? What does welcome to the team mean in your organisation?
We often hear that new team members ‘hit the ground running; this is primarily due to the fast-paced nature of our organisations. One client mentioned, there is just less ‘chum factor’ – this is often presented to us as a lack of connection in teams or across departments. We still often hear the term ‘silos’. With technological advances, we communicate digitally and have less direct face to face opportunities to really connect. This session works brilliantly with one team, or you can have many in the room, and we will mix them all and have time with their own team.
