Teams

Building a team is more than just putting a group of people in a room together. Teams need to work together and trust each other to achieve common goals. As Dr. Bruce Tuckman tells us, teams move through five stages in their evolution.

Tuckman Model for Team Evolution

Forming: teams come together; individuals get to know each other and how they will interact
Storming: conflicts arise through interpersonal differences; individual goals come into play
Norming: standards evolve and member roles emerge; teams learn how to collaborate
Performing: with structural issues resolved, teams work together effectively
Adjourning (or Transforming): dissolution of the team; members move on to other endeavours which may or many not include the same team members

LovePS can help you move through the Forming and Storming stages, establishing the Norms that will enable your team to Perform.

Facilitation

LovePS will facilitate a variety of meetings and workshops so that your staff can stay focused on the content of the meeting. We will help you gather and prioritize requirements, and develop your WBS. We can help you with strategic planning, when you want to select a course of action from many options. Most of all, we will keep your meetings on track and productive, even when the group is very large.

The price of the service is based on the total wine cost. Some of the topics we cover in a basic seminar include:
