What are the different types of team workshops and when should you use them?

Problem-solving workshops are collaborative sessions designed to address specific challenges or obstacles faced by a team. These workshops typically involve analyzing the root causes of a problem, generating creative solutions, and implementing action plans. By engaging the collective intelligence of the team, problem-solving workshops enhance critical thinking, communication, and teamwork. They drive performance by empowering team members to overcome hurdles efficiently, fostering a culture of adaptability and continuous improvement. These sessions contribute to a more resilient and agile team, capable of navigating complex situations and achieving better overall performance. A personal favourite are regular company wide hackathons.

Les Team Building qui fonctionnement le mieux sont ceux qui mixent apprentissage réel et fun. Pour développer la cohésion, un Team Building autour des styles de personnalités DISC permet cela. Non seulement les équipes apprennent à mieux se connaitre, elles définissent comment mieux collaborer ensemble, et les activités fun leur font vivre et partager une expérience d'équipe inoubliable.

Feedback workshops are vital for assessing progress, identifying gaps, and celebrating achievements within a team. These workshops create a safe space for team members to express opinions and share suggestions, fostering a culture of open communication. As a strength based coach, my preferred and proven approach is the "Ways of Working" workshop, focusing on individual strengths. This type of workshop not only gathers feedback but also aligns team members with their unique capabilities, promoting collaboration and enhancing overall team performance. Use these workshops regularly to maintain a dynamic feedback loop, ensuring continuous improvement and adaptability within the team.

Apart from feedback workshops, strategic planning sessions, team-building exercises, and innovation workshops are essential for fostering a high-performance culture. Strategic planning aligns the team with company goals, team-building strengthens relationships, and innovation workshops stimulate creative thinking. Regularly incorporating these workshops drives a positive culture, enhances collaboration, and propels the overall performance of both the team and the company.
