Developing Innovation Teams: Individuals Working Together To Create Value

PURPOSE: 
Intense and impactful, this course teaches participants the tools, techniques, attitudes and behaviors that are critical to the kind of teamwork that seeks innovative solutions.
DESCRIPTION: 
One person can make a difference. But we live in a world of work groups, task forces and innovation teams. This highly active — and interactive — program provides teams with the skills, attitudes and tools to work together more innovatively and productively, with a dramatic reduction in non-productive communication. By teaching a cycle based on key internal leadership themes (as detailed in the book More Lightning, Less Thunder: How To Energize Innovation Teams), this course helps individuals develop the behaviors necessary to make a positive contribution. Participants work on real organizational challenges to help them better appreciate their impact on the team. Consequently, the program brings ideas forward which, when implemented, yield financial gain for the company that more than offsets the cost of the program. Groups who participate return to work energized, more creative, better able to communicate… and they get things done.

Frank talk from a GatorTeams. Make that TEAMS!! Do you get as tired of hearing about teamwork as we do? Sheesh! We don’t play football here, we WORK! And yes, we work with other people, but it’s not a GAME! If it were a game, there’d be referees in striped shirts blowing whistles when someone fouls us. If only. Now that we’ve gotten that out of our system, we hope you agree. Like it or not, we all have to work with others. Two groups: one works well together, one does not. Guess which one is more productive? Guess which one is more innovative? Guess which one is more effective? Guess which one has team members who know how to blow the whistle on themselves to make things happen more smoothly. Your prize for guessing correctly: you get to say – and see – that you have good teamwork, and everybody thinks that’s a good thing. Or should.
