All Leqtures by this speaker
Every exceptional team exists because of the individuals within it. We’ve all heard the phrase, “the whole is greater than the sum of its parts” and great teams are no exception. When we get our team composition and dynamics right, we can together take performance and culture to the next level. To succeed, we must embrace the value each individual brings and apply this to enhance the overall team’s performance. We need to regularly reflect on the way we operate and consider how we are truly getting the best from ourselves and our teammates.
In this masterclass, we'll identify the five key factors that set high-performing teams apart from the rest. We'll highlight the top challenges that all teams face, and we'll talk about how to overcome these. We'll also figure out our own personality preferences and learn how to flex our style to have more effective interactions. When we take our approach to team dynamics to the next level, we create a thriving and inclusive team culture where everyone belongs and brings their best self to the table.
Embedding Peak Performance Habits
Most of us have a strong desire to regain control of our days, but the reality is much more reactive. Life gets busy and suddenly we’re back to familiar yet ineffective routines and habits. Our good intentions become a distant memory.
In this session, you will discover how to develop peak performance habits that stick, even when pressure ramps up. We will deep dive into everything you need to know to embed powerful behaviours that give you the edge - and keep you there. Use this opportunity as a catalyst to reset, upgrade your routines, and upgrade how you operate on autopilot.
