Workshop | Have fun failing: What sets high performing teams apart
Why do some teams turn setbacks into success, while others let failure crush them? Can failing be fun?
Immerse yourself in this engaging hands-on team interaction session. You and your new team get to experiment using a board game as a lab for failure - or what high performing teams call "learning". Observe and recognize the behaviors, communication patterns, and mindsets that separate high performing teams from merely good ones.
The session is designed to surface the same dynamics and challenges all teams face. Playing in this safe, low-stakes settings lets you have the freedom that enables you to think about your perspectives and assumptions, as well as consider realistic and profound concepts. Yet, the most impactful learning happens in the reflection and debrief. The unpacking of what happened, why it happened, and how to translate those realizations into practical tools you can use in your organization.
The lessons learned depend on our collective experience - yours, your new friends (teammates), and everyone in the room. No two sessions are the same, although many of the core lessons are universal. The game frees us up to imagine and share obstacles and solutions we would've never had thought of before or the opportunity to dig into.
At the end, we tie it altogether with realistic researched based ways to make you and your team more productive, agile, and high performing. Expect a fun, impactful, innovative session.
