BUILDING RESILIENT TEAMS CERTIFICATE Create Trust & Increase Engagement!

In the workplace today, it’s easy for teams to succumb to ways of working that don’t inspire their best efforts despite everyone’s best intentions.

As human beings we have two different ways of regulating: either connect or protect. Resilient teams regulate in connect the vast majority of the time. They are connected with who they are as individuals, with each other, and with their team purpose. They know how to create synergy with each other. They know their strengths and weaknesses. Biologically, our connect systems stimulate feel-good hormones, most important of which are oxytocin (trust), dopamine (reward, motivation) and serotonin (satisfaction, pleasure).

These hormones not only help us feel good but also elicit our best thinking, as well as our most focused and sustainable efforts.

How It Works • We recommend taking Creating Psychological Safety first but the classes can be taken in any order.

• Classes range from 1-3 days from 8:00am4:30pm.

• Classes are offered year-round.

• Take one course or complete the certificate.

Build Your Skills To • Create transparency: open sharing and discussion • Commit to problem solving and solution making • Increase teamwork: helping others and accepting help • Exercise cognitive flexibility: brainstorming, solution envisioning, aspiration creation, goal envisioning • Redirect conversations toward productive outcomes and respectful processes • Improve focus • Have a greater appreciation for diversity on your team

Building a Team

This one-day seminar is for individuals or workgroups interested in becoming high performing teams. Developing into an effective team requires vision, purpose and planning. Without an agreed upon team structure and process, work groups are unlikely to evolve into high performing teams.

As part of this process, we will explore the development and application of team visions, mission statements, values, and ground rules.

We will also examine the use of team Charters and the leadership roles of the team sponsor, process owner and team leader. Participants will also explore how to build trust and turn conflict into cooperation.

Strengths of Difference The most successful teams know and appreciate each other's strengths and differences. They understand that the genius of any team is built primarily on how we relate to each other. What makes this class different is that it demonstrates how our brains work in ways that, at first, seem oppositional, but when understood, become opportunities. Just as our differences can lead to conflict they can also open up avenues for creativity and success. If we try to get others to do things like we do, we tend to bump heads and important things either don't get done or get done badly. However, if we can acknowledge and appreciate our diverse approaches then we can get a smarter and more comprehensive view of the situation while inspiring sustainable success.

Organizations need people to step up and get the job done. Most organizations expect this without giving enough of the right kinds of support to staff and without insisting on the right kinds of activities from managers.

Upon completion participants should be able to: •

Assess your organization for four variables that drive employee performance • Utilize the six steps of a good coaching conversation • Effectively deliver positive reinforcement so constructive feedback can be optimized.

• Know the importance of keeping conversations focused on what can be improved and how it can be done • Energize staff to take ownership and drive positive ethics • Understand why some people won't get on board and what to do about it.

Teaches strategies to immediately elevate functioning and provides templates for keeping the improvement focused and on track in the future. Upon completion participants should be able to: • Understand the components of the change "process" • Understand the impact that change has on employees and customers • Practice assessing root causes of issues, rather than treating symptoms • Practice five key facilitator practices: Observing behaviors, eliciting clear communication, challenging assumptions, speaking with tact, and maintaining group energy 10/21-10/23 Code C231 *1/27-1/29 Code C302

Leading Through Difficulty: Emotional Intelligence, Communication, & Conflict Management

Most employees spend too much time in conflict situations. Most managers spend too much time putting out fires that could have been prevented with better planning and more deliberate actions. These events collide to create a constant strain for managers. This program gives them the tools to better manage themselves so they are less drained from these realities, it clarifies processes for handling conflicts head-on before they become too hot to handle, and it provides practice in communication skills for turning difficult situations into win-wins almost all the time.

• Assess Emotional Intelligence: What it is, why it matters and how to improve it • Discover how conflicts are shaped by expectations, perceptions and life long coping patterns • Implement an interest-based approach to help both sides get their needs met • Use the components of the conflict "process" when mediating impasse between others • Practice how to face your next conflict head-on
