Team Communication for Rapid Results
Half-day Workshops
- Three Filters
Use the Three Filters instrument to understand
each team member’s talents and how they can apply
their talents to maximize your team’s effectiveness.
- Future Filter - planners who picture the future
and work backwards from the endpoint to the present
- People Filter - communicators who know what everyone
cares about and therefore can keep stakeholders
in the loop and excited about project's progress
- Security Filter - implementers who stay focused
and get tasks done
We have to plan, communicate, and execute.
We all have these three filters inside of us, but
we have our preferences and strengths. By tapping
into the strengths on the team, individuals are doing
what they do well, and they feel like they are not
even working. Someone else is doing the stuff
I hate doing and I get to do what enjoy.
At the end of this workshop, participants will be
able to recognize other people's filters, communicate
more effectively, and know how to plug them into the
project for maximum effectiveness. You will
also be able to see if a role on a team is missing
and understand why a team is less effective because
of it. Most important, you will be able to talk
in the language of the other person and make sense
to that person.
- Six Hat
Use this tool to get buy-in, generate creativity,
and get out out of right/wrong thinking. Have
you ever been on a team where there is a nay-sayer,
some who can think of all ther reasons it won't work.
We want to hear what they say, but for only five minutes.
Here is a way to do that, and whole lot more.
- White hat - collect data
- Green hat - creativity
- Red hat - emotions
- Black hat - critic
- Blue hat - facilitating the process
- Yellow hat - possibilities
This model from Edward DeBono, aligns people so they
they are thinking in one of these perspectives as a
group so they can be more effective. Peter Uberoff
used this technique when planning the Los Angles Olympics.
This was the first time the Olympics made money.
He credits Edward DeBono for his success.
We take your team through a live simulation,
working with your own challenges on your own team.
