A two day workshop designed to develop the skills required to create high performing teams.In order to be a High Performance Leader it is essential to first understandHigh Performance Teams and to develop the skills required by team members. Study of high performing teams over the past 50 years has revealed a number of common characteristics in addition to the competencies required for the tasks in hand. They work methodically; they have a real clarity about what they are trying to achieve; their aims are challenging but attainable; they identify the skills each team member possesses and set out to develop these further and to capitalise on the benefits; they build on the ideas of team members; they make appropriate personal contributions and take personal responsibility when required.

The High Performance Teams workshop will develop each of these characteristics and give each delegate an opportunity to develop their own skills in each of these areas through a series of tasks, reviews and inputs from the course staff.
