It focuses on building highly effective teams using theory from Lencioni (The Five Dysfunctions of a Team) and helps delegates to dissect what needs to be in place and to gain common agreement as to what needs to happen for a team to be high performing. Challenging conversations and feedback form a key part here in setting expectations and fully maximising performance within the team.

By the end of the programme you will:

  • Understand the kind of leader you need to be in order to drive high performance
  • Explore the principles of Lencioni’s Five Dysfunctions of a team
  • Practice some tools for creating a high performance culture
  • Understand the impact of leadership behaviour and style on the performance of individuals and teams
  • Consider the impact of change and what happens if it isn’t managed well
  • Look at how to manage resistance to change by identifying the reasons for this and reinforcing that this is a natural reaction
  • Understand how to apply change theory models to real life situations within organisations
  • Practice using a range of change models including Kubler Ross, Missing Pieces and Kotter in order to develop your own change strategies.

At the PMA we pride ourselves on the understanding that one size doesn’t fit all and – therefore, we have various formats of our workshops and can adapt any programme / agenda to suit your local needs and necessaries – so, please get in touch to discuss your requirements.
