Upcoming Leadership Training and Orientation Events

Forming Successful Teams 
We have all been part of teams – some high performing, some not so. The best teams leverage diversity and set clear goals as building blocks to success. The actions you take when you first pull a team together are critical to the team’s future performance. The effort you put into forming your teams will get your teams to the performing stage more quickly. Building successful teams takes work and dedication. This workshop will provide you with the tools and techniques to be a better team member and leader.
