Prior to the Team Workshop (half day or full day) each team member will complete a Contribution Compass Profile. The Profile Assessment is conducted online, and they will answer a series of questions about themselves in general. We will then compile a Contribution Compass Team report that will accentuate the level of flow of the team. 

We debrief the team and look individually at each team member's profile type and their strengths and challenges.  It is important that if there are two or three of the team who are the same profile type that we explain what makes each one different in their own individual way.  We do this by comparing each individual's graph and data and detailing the reasons why they are different.  When the team first read their Profile Report their first reaction is often to ‘self-diagnose’ from the contents and start jumping to conclusions.  The group debrief enables them the time to have their profile explained to them in detail with some very important distinctions discussed, enabling both themselves and their peers to have a clear understanding on what they bring to the team.

We work through each of the team’s profiles with the end result being:

• A clear understanding of their profile and the value and natural skill set that they bring to the team
• An appreciation of the elements that other team members and management also bring to the team
• An understanding of why they love doing some tasks but resist others and how to best manage themselves to get tasks completed
• How to best work in ‘flow’ to be happier, more productive and ultimately more successful in their role

If the full day option is chosen, we work with the Management Team in the afternoon to provide a clear pathway on how to best communicate with and leverage the innate talent and energy that each team member brings to the business.

We advise on how to deal with and solve any blockages to progress that the Management Team may be experiencing with individuals or the team as a whole.  We also teach how to best communicate with each team member, how to encourage different angles and views of the same point, ensuring a more balanced approach is taken when decisions are made. We will also check that the core business of the company is clear and clearly communicated. 

The desired outcomes of the Team Workshop are:

• A quantum improvement in the respect and value that each of the team have for each other
• An increase in productivity as the team now understand their strengths and how to leverage them
• Improved cohesion between the Leader/Management and team members via better communication and individual team member management
• Higher levels of success and results as each team member is working in their area of flow
• Some re-allocation of tasks to get the most out of each of the team’s innate talent
• Some suggested changes to increase team flow by recruiting a level up or restructuring
