Background
      With the refocusing of teams from "individual brands" into "groups of brands" the need for people to change their scope of thinking and work together across the former boundaries of their brands became critical to the success of the new structure.
       
      Project Objectives
     

Individual team development programmes have been designed in order to address the following key objectives :

  • To continue the team-building process.
  • To provide the team with an opportunity to review how it works together, in order that it could improve its teamwork practices, performance and contribution.
  • To discuss and agree the team's new role, remit and accountabilities.
  • To discuss and agree the team's key performance expectations.
  • To discuss and agree individuals' 'expectations' of one another, i.e.
  • Team Leader of Team Members
  • Team Members of Team Leader
  • Team Members of Team Members
  • To get to know one another even better, and have some fun together.
       
      Project Outcomes
     

The investment in this 'development intervention' assisted both teams and individuals to address and move forward in a number of key areas :

  • A more open and trusting set of relationships where issues are raised and resolved quickly.
  • A set of "team guidelines" that remind team members of the agreed acceptable and unacceptable behaviours and values.
  • Agree clear 'short and medium term' priorities and requirements.
  • Further knowledge and 'insights' into each team member’s career / project experience, personal team-working contributions and skills.
  • Agreed 'expectations' of one another in terms of roles, responsibilities and deliverables.
  • Agreed ways of working the new structure.

The programme design was a balance of practical, outdoor projects, activities and business related planning sessions. 1 to 1 pre-programme interviews enabled this balance and appropriate content to be achieved accurately with adjustments during the event.
