5 Voices For Teams

ELEVATE YOUR TEAM’S PERFORMANCE

Throughout this 12-month process, 5 Voices for Teams helps team members become more self-aware, creating opportunities for behavior change, which improves communication, trust and alignment with the team leader and the team. The result? Teams perform at higher levels while building stronger cultures.

Core Outcomes

  • ✺

    Empowers Leaders. With greater self-awareness and improved feedback, leaders can increase their influence with their teams.

  • ✺

    Increases Team Performance. Most teams sit between 60-70% performance effectiveness. Intentionally focusing on team dynamics increases performance.

  • ✺

    Improves Team Dynamics. Most leadership development programs focus solely on the individual 5V4Ts increases BOTH personal influence AND team health and culture.

  • ✺

    Builds Trust. Psychological safety and relationships are the foundation for trust. Leveraging 5 Voices we learn to value the unique contribution of each voice.

  • ✺

    Strengthens Culture. When we are not intentional about building health team cultures we are rolling the dice and hoping. That is not a effective strategy.

  • ✺

    Is Fun! Learning should be fun and most of our workshops generate laughs as we recognize and celebrate our humanity and the unique ways we show up.
