Synopsis:
They are called many different names: management teams, leadership teams, executive councils, teams at the top, etc. The monikers may be different, but the need for mid-level and senior level teams to pull together and solve complex issues is the same. As one author noted, the need to practice effective team and partnering skills increases as one moves into higher levels of leadership because the issues typically faced at those levels can only be solved with those skills. (Katzenbach, Teams at the Top, 1998)

Whether you select the one, two or two and a half day program, participants can apply their skills in a semi-structured environment. During each of the modules, the program content uses a blend of team learning lab (a methodology using hands-on, business simulations to illustrate the best teaming practices), team assessment, and peer feed-forward. Most programs are anchored in a teaming model or behaviors that you prefer. We can also recommend an anchoring model.
