Making Communication Work (Advanced DiSC® Communication)Session Length: 4 hours Prerequisite: Connecting for Success
Communication is more than talking and listening. Genuine communication requires a deep understanding of another person's perspective. But...when you take into consideration all of our biases, behavioral idiosyncrasies, unspoken emotions, personal agendas, and unshared assumptions...this can seem almost impossible. For years, however, DiSC® has successfully helped people understand each other on a more fundamental level.
This program shows participants how to read other people and see how others interpret their behaviors. It leaves them with a gut-level appreciation for the needs of their co-workers. Ultimately, the program helps participants adapt their communication styles in a way that creates an enduring working alliance among group members. Role of Trust and Conflict in the WorkplaceSession Length: 4 hours
Conflict in the workplace is inevitable. But there are two sides to the conflict issue. While one side would argue that conflict is destructive to an organization, others would argue that a workplace without conflict is a workplace without passion, where nothing ever changes or improves. In reality, both sides are correct, and the distinction lies in trust. Carefully managed conflict can lead to creativity and better, stronger decisions. But for people to express their ideas and opinions without being afraid of conflict there must be a high level of trust within the organization.
This program highlights the fundamental components of developing and retaining trust at all levels in an organization. Participants will walk away with techniques for opening up lines of communication and channeling differences of opinion toward constructive outcomes. Continually building an environment of trust will help your organization create high performance teams who are passionate about producing superior results. Listen Up! The Other Side of CommunicationSession Length: 8 hours
Listening is the “other side” of communications, and the one that most people take for granted. Yet, to be effective in your career AND in your life you need to understand not only WHEN to listen, but HOW to listen.
In this dynamic, interactive program you will explore the value of effective listening, gain insight into the 5 major listening approaches, and learn when to adopt a different listening approach for more successful communication.
Workplace Collaboration - Creating Cohesive TeamsSession Length: 4 hours
More than likely we’ve all had to work with people who were quite different than us. Sometimes it is frustrating, but when a team learns to understand their roles, embrace their differences, and work together toward a common goal, they can be enormously powerful.
This program specifically helps bring teams together and collaborate for a common goal. It is designed for individuals who want to improve the efficiency of their workgroup and tap into each team member’s strengths. Essential Elements of a TeamSession Length: 4 hours
A team is greater than the sum of its parts. Teams have their own motivations and behaviors. And team dynamics can change dramatically as their team leaders and members come and go. This program helps you understand how effective, successful teams develop, how to identify your team's characteristics, and how to leverage your collective strengths and correct negative tendencies.
This program highlights the fundamental components of a great team, how team members communicate to achieve the team goals, and how to ensure that your best performers are also your best team players. Employee Engagement - Identifying Key ExpectationsSession Length: 4 hours
Have you ever wondered what makes a good company great? It's the people. Committed, productive employees are the key to organizational success and a healthy bottom line. The challenge, then, is retaining and developing satisfied, committed employees. Research has shown that people who have clearly defined, well-communicated expectations have better attitudes and enjoy greater job satisfaction than people whose expectations go unspoken or unrealized. And companies that employ satisfied, successful people reap the rewards of increased productivity and reduced turnover.
This engaging, interactive program is designed to help managers and employees dialogue about their work expectations, which opens the door to mutual understanding. Participants will explore key work expectations, discover which expectations are most important to them, learn how to communicate their expectations to others, learn how to initiate steps to have their expectations met, and learn how to adjust their expectations when necessary. Hidden Culture - Personal Values in the WorkplaceSession Length: 4 hours Prerequisite: Connecting for Success
Just as individuals have unique styles, groups also tend to develop distinct styles or cultures. These cultures are informal combinations of behaviors, values, and attitudes that most people take for granted. Put in the simplest terms, group culture is “the way we do things.” Although not everyone agrees or flows with the culture, most group members feel the pressure that a culture exerts to act in a particular way.
While DiSC® does not address all elements of culture, it helps people understand many important needs, goals, fears, emotions, and behaviors that contribute to it. In this course, participants use DiSC to explore their group culture and understand all of its implications. Further, participants explore ways to contribute most effectively within their culture. Discovering Team Talents - Leverage the Strengths of Your TeamSession Length: 4 hours
Have you ever worked on a team where everyone is doing what they enjoy and making the very best use of their talents? A team where people just seem to “get” each other, projects make real progress and everyone is glad to be on the team? The goal of this program is to help you create this kind of engaged, high-functioning team.
This course is designed for team members or team leaders who wish to increase group performance by helping each person in a group fulfill his or her potential to the overall benefit of the group. Understanding Workplace MotivationSession Length: 4 hours Prerequisite: Connecting for Success
Everybody on a team is motivated. They're just motivated by different things and, sometimes, toward different things. The team can be more effective and engaged when each member knows how to get what he or she needs out of the process.
This program helps participants pinpoint the things that drive their success on a team. Through the DiSC® model, participants learn to appreciate the role that their environment has on their motivation. Team members discover how to capitalize on their particular motivators in a way that makes the entire team more energized, dynamic, and successful.
