The Art of Representation: Preparing Teams to Speak — and Act — for Each Other

There are situations in the life of every team when their work and views need to be represented by sending a team member to an external meeting. This may be a hierarchical situation where the team leader is required, or a matter of specialism where a subject matter expert needs to represent their colleagues. Either way it's imperative that the team... Read more...
How to develop and maintain trust in teams

Teamwork is built on a bedrock of mutual trust, and can only be truly effective when each and every team member works within the climate that this trust engenders. This may be a simple statement, but the diversity of human nature and personality often mitigates against the establishment of the necessary trust. Regularly introducing an effective ... Read more...

RSVP Breakthrough Thinking workshop(86.63 KB)

The Workshop objectives include:

To understand the difference between creativity and innovation

To recognise the stages in an innovation process and the contributions that individuals make

To practise a range of creative thinking techniques to generate new ideas

To apply creative and innovative thinking principles in practical problem-solving

To understand and use questioning techniques in coaching for innovation

To use the techniques to work on real-life problems identified and selected by the group

This is a one-day (7 hour) workshop that can be delivered independently or as part of a sequence of workshops around management skills, as we offer another five workshops in a discounted package (which can be seen below). This workshop contains four separate modules, and can be planned as a full day session which includes fun, engaging, serious and challenging activities aimed at helping delegates find new solutions to old problems, and to find new applications for existing knowledge.

Use this workshop to help intact teams move forward as part of a team development programme; to add another creative and fun module to an existing management or leadership development programme; or to help groups who feel they have little or no creative or innovation skills!

In an educational setting, introduce learners to the skills of creative thinking and understanding the connections to product and process innovation. Allow them to practice and build these skills, whatever their background or experience.
