Team Performance Training:

Grow Effective, Efficient, Cohesive Teams

The best known and most successful companies have one thing in common: a commitment to team building

As the managing Director of Rank Xerox has been known to say:

"Quality is not natural, but teamwork is!"

This mindset has become the cornerstone of operations in the Xerox Company, and it has served them exceedingly well. Not coincidentally, that concept is easily supported by viewing the successes of other top Fortune 500 companies.

What Successful Businesses Know That Others Don't

Fortune 500 companies understand that their sales and service success is directly attributable to the functionality and effectiveness of their teams...

These companies have become the most successful and admired businesses by focusing on the qualities their employees posses that increase function and subsequent profitability.

The most successful companies have distinguished themselves in one critical way: they recognise a number of personal attributes such as self awareness, self management, social awareness and social interactive skills that impact an individual leader's effectiveness on a team, then develop those traits for the betterment of the team's function.

These attributes were shown to be the foundations of individual success within top earning organisations. The inability to work in teams was identified by executives in nearly 60% of surveyed organisations as being the second leading reason why "high potential" leadership candidates failed to progress. Interestingly, lack of technical ability was last on the list, stated by only 9% of respondents.

It was also discovered that formal team building and development training were very highly valued among top performing companies. The most successful companies offered formal team development and training opportunities at least 36% more often than less successful peer organisations.

From this we can infer that a commitment to developing team leaders is critical in the success of an organisation.At i perform we have held these beliefs since our inception. By creating and conducting effective leadership training programs we have helped raise many international businesses to the top of their field.

The Process of Team Building

i perform develops the entire team's success on two stages.

Firstly, we work with the participants to develop the skills required to effectively lead their teams - whether they are currently fulfilling a leadership role, or have the potential to do so. We work cooperatively with participants so they recognise the skills and attributes that are important in a leadership position. Through this process, they learn to recognise their own strengths and opportunities for improvement.

Secondly, we allow the participants to develop the tools required to create their own leadership style which they then adapt to specific situations. Each participant builds their own "personal development plan" to help ensure that behavioural changes occur following the training programme. This presents maximum benefit to the team leader, the team and the organisation.

i perform’s training programs focus on enhancing individual strengths and using those strengths for the success of the whole team, whilst our team building exercises, focus on developing team synergy to optimise the entire team's performance.

We do this by first training participants how great teams are built. We:

Identify and develop leadership roles and skills such as delegation and performance management
Analyse team members’ strengths,weaknesses and potential
Structure a plan of action for high performance, including:
- Setting SMARTER goals
- Communicating leader expectations
- The role of both control and feedback for individual team members
- Understanding how to meet the needs of the parts (the individuals) to meet the needs of the overall group
Develop the skills needed to implement the action plan

Essential to team building is the development of individual leadership skills and a respect for those in authority. We define the role of the leader and work with leadership candidates to enhance:

Communication
Mindset and attitude
Creative problem solving
Delegation
Management of team members, emphasizing the effect of the part on the whole
Crisis and conflict management
Using a modular approach i perform delivers a programme that allows for the practical implementation of new skills and the sharing of experiences to learn from each other.
