Key learning from today
Team or group, it’s about good group working that is fit for purpose
There’s a lot of invisible group process stuff going on all the time
Content and procedure work needs to be balanced against group process, especially if the group is not working well
Trusting others, taking responsibility, and accepting accountability are core principles in good group working
Groups need a clear learning process that helps them move beyond the current task
What Roffey offers for teams
Development for team leaders – an open programme to explore the role of team leader as facilitator of team performance, leadership in teams, and team coaching
Real team development – bringing the whole team to Roffey to engage in a range of team development activities and discussions aimed at helping the team to raise motivation and performance
Benchmarking – meeting with other teams in an environment of competition and cooperation to explore how well your own team performs relative to others
