Team Building Services

Marie Moran & Company team-building events do much more than strengthen team dynamics. They provide powerful opportunities for each participant to grow at a personal level. We facilitate a rich experience that brings discovery, purpose and principle to each individual and to your team as a whole.

To begin, we work with you to assess what is needed and what your group is ready for; then we develop events – special programs, coaching or workshops – appropriate for you. Our facilitators have years of experience in designing:

	Team Assessments in a variety of modalities, so that the assessment process fits your culture and work environment
	Outdoor Activities that encourage relaxed exchange and connection among team members
	Vision and Planning Sessions that take participants to a broader perspective for more energized, more inspired thinking
	Small Group Workshops tailored to your needs, such as: Building a Great Team Communication Styles – Working Together and Building Bridges Conflict & Collaboration Building a Learning Environment

Team Effectiveness Survey

One of MMCo’s proven team assessment tools is the Team Effectiveness Survey, a process designed to:

	Identify the current stage of your team’s development
	Assess key issues facing the team, now and in the near future
	Discover how the team currently sees itself
	Assess motivation, spirit, and overall alignment of the team
	Evaluate the types and extent of conflict and collaboration in the group; how power is used or abused
	Identify how work gets done – key processes and decision-making practices
	Evaluate how team objectives are being served by current roles
	Analyze how differing interpersonal styles impact understanding and collaboration within the team
	Identify opportunities that exist for building a “learning environment”

Building a Great Team Workshop A customized one to two day program What makes a team thrive? How can that be accomplished? One of the first steps in undertaking a team-building project is to discover what is working well for the team. In what situations does the team succeed? With what factors in place does it thrive – working well together, maintaining accountability, and achieving results “at the top of its game?” Our design process takes into account all factors that affect the performance of your team, including analyzing: How strongly does the team demonstrate a sense of focus, purpose and orientation to action? What does it do to maintain momentum? Do team leaders know how to lead? Does the team know when and how to follow, to question, to engage in conflict, so that productive outcomes occur? In what ways does the team acknowledge and encourage exemplary contributors? How does the team deal with individual members who do not fulfill their commitments? What does the team do to launch “C” performers into “B” or “A” levels? With answers to these key questions, our facilitators design a workshop to assist your team to grow and thrive. Workshop Topics include: What is a team, really? Why is it important to develop teamwork? Putting a healthy dose of fun and humor to work in your team How to brainstorm for more productive outcomes Exploring team communications – what works and what doesn’t Bridging through conflict, differences, and pressure issues Building personal discipline to change, grow and relate in new ways with your team Learning how to celebrate, encourage, and inspire one another How to adapt as the team matures, roles expand, or members come and go Dynamics that keep your team fresh and engaged over the long haul
