Horse Sense for Leaders

 

"Individual learning, no matter how wonderful it is or how
great it makes us feel, is fundamentally irrelevant to organizations, because virtually all-important decisions occur in groups.

Programs for Intact Teams

Teams are critical to success - they can make - or break - an organization.

In these one to two day team experiences, you and your team will jumpstart the process of developing strategies to improve team performanceas you uncover the realities of:

  • WHY your team may not be optimizing performance
  • WHAT specific areas, such as communication, need to be addressed to increase effectiveness; and
  • HOW your team can begin to realize its true potential

Every team program provides a hands-on, interactive group learning experience to begin your journey or expand your ability towards creating a high performance team. During this process, your team partners with horses, not in a traditional riding sense, but in a partnership similar to how you interact with your customers, employees, vendors and other key stakeholders to tackle real-world business issues that impact your bottom line. Through this experiential learning, your team also examines how to increase team performance and productivity by creating a balance between tasks and the needs of people and by establishing clear team roles and enhanced team communication.

All of our leadership programs are suited to be the foundation for a retreat for intact teams. We customize these programs to bring out team learnings and develop team action plans.

We also offer these programs specifically designed to optimize team performance:

  • Team Accelerator - one day experiential retreat
  • The Road to High Performance - focus on team learning
  • Team Transformation - three day revitilization process
  • Who is in your Herd - understanding differences
  • Planning for Success - alignment, planning and performance
  • Transitioning to Teams - three to twelve month organizational team implementation program.
