To the core of virtual teams:
The people factor
To the Core of Virtual Teams program consists of the following modules:
1
Understanding teams:
The I.C.E. strategy in action (Identify, Communicate, Evaluate)
2
To the Core of a high-performance team:
Gamified Activity: The Virtual Navigation Game.
3
Using the I.C.E. strategy to manage a team:
People, team dynamics, personalities, alignment, trust.
4
Going Home:
Applying the learnings to the workplace
To the Core of Virtual Teams: Team Dynamics & The People.
Aligning Virtual Teams
- Align your remote distributed work-from-home virtual team to communicate & collaborate better through an online team simulation, and in the process understand the role team dynamics plays, within the people on the team.
Gamified Simulation:
- In The Virtual Navigation Game teams need to navigate virtually to find places on a world map and communicate with a degree of speed and accuracy in doing so and simulating the alignment challenges of a virtually distributed team.
- The simulation is deliberately themed with memorable research from Antarctica, made relevant & applicable to a corporate work team.
Outcomes:
- Teams learn to communicate and manage the tension of both a time-sensitive project that also requires an agreed degree of accuracy.
- Learn to see the big picture and manage team dynamics & personalities more effectively.
- This session is based on an interactive gamified simulation(s) to recreate the dynamics of a complex team – looking at people dynamics. It then uses this experience to debrief the outcome in a safe environment and facilitate action planning. This experiential learning leads to great facilitated group discussion, reflection and application back in the workplace.
Debrief:
- After the simulation, the experience is debriefed. The value of this debrief is that issues that arose in the simulation can be discussed in a safe environment and facilitate action planning and applications in the workplace.
