There are few roles today that do not require teamwork. In this complex, uncertain and dynamic world, the ability for teams to manage their ever-changing environment is paramount to its success. Being a resilient individual does not guarantee that the team you belong to is resilient. It is group behaviours that build team resilience. This workshop helps teams to recognise the strategies for building greater team resilience and provides the impetus to learn how to implement them.

Businesses don’t succeed by standing still. Close scrutiny of products, services, and systems will always reveal room for positive change.

In this course we look at approaches to support individuals through change, factors that contribute to the creation of positive teams and what is required of a manager during periods of change for continuous improvement performance, service, quality and diversification.
