There comes a point on every team when you have to decide, ‘do I keep fighting this fight & move to improve the whole team?’ Or ‘do I focus on myself & my work knowing that I’m doing the best I can & that is enough?’ … Not an easy choice and one that you must consider in order to stay mentally healthy & do your best work.
Outcomes & Objectives:
– To break “stuckness” in thinking
Create breakthrough ideas rapidly;
– Generating new ideas and improving existing ones;
– Framing ‘what success will look like’ for the day;
– Framing ‘what did we do that was useful & how can we apply these ideas’ at the conclusion of an innovation process.

Team Building and Leadership Activities and Simulations
I like using activities for Team Building and Leadership Development.
Sometimes wondering if they are the best tool to use at the time and what else could be used to get the message and development across?
The guidelines align with team building & executive coaching activities. Illustrating through activities a team and person develop exceptions and see ‘what works’ in a context they’re not used too and is still familiar because they just made it happen.
The areas of the work you find relevant, you will ascribe value to, and be motivated to do more of that stuff. The areas of the work you find to be irrelevant you may still do. And will eventually try to stop doing because they are of little value to you – causing unmotivation.

Great discussions and smart fun challenging people – that makes TeamBuilding & Leadership work.
