Essentials of Team Leadership Class

Raleigh/Durham BBB Accredited Business ReportThere are many myths and misconceptions about team building, many of them repeated by well-meaning but misinformed consultants. Find out what science says really works in small group management. This one-day class for managers at all levels condenses the team leader training from The SuddenTeams Program to its most critical lessons. Learn the key techniques science has provided for leading teams to high performance, whether leadership teams or line workers. The class covers essential skills for:

  • Team Selection—Identifying needs, and then structuring job ads and interviews to get the best mix of skills and qualities.
  • Team Formation—Defining roles, group norms, team procedures, and work processes.
  • Team Management—Managing through the Team Development Curve, being a team leader, and ignoring the myths of teamwork.
  • Communication and Meetings—Ensuring information flows as needed and meetings are productive (with lessons from our Communication Skills and Meeting Facilitation classes).

Each class member receives a copy of The SuddenTeams Program book, which serves as the text for the class and includes numerous techniques for solving specific teamwork issues. Our most popular offering, this class has served as the team leadership section of a course leading to project manager certification (through Key Consulting).

Though conducted at your preferred site and customized for your team's real-world issues, the per-person charge is usually less than you would pay for generic off-site training.* Contact TeamTrainers to give your managers new leadership skills and ideas for improving your operations they can apply the next day.
