Presentation Summaries...

BUILDING COLLABORATIVE INTELLIGENCE™ THROUGH TEAM EMOTIONAL AND SOCIAL INTELLIGENCE

Based on the Collaborative Growth Team Model, this presentation gives teams and their leaders the opportunity to strategically understand the seven behaviors of success for teams. As these seven develop, teams expand their capabilities in developing trust, empathy, loyalty and better decisions. Teams discover that this is a continuous growth process. As teams learn how to build these four benefits they enjoy sustainable productivity and emotional and social well-being as a team.

RESOLVING CONFLICT WITH SUSTAINABLE RESULTS THROUGH TEAM AND SOCIAL INTELLIGENCE

When teams develop the seven behaviors of success they change conflict from an often scary threat to true opportunities.

That makes it sustainable instead of forced. Teams and their leaders explore the seven core skills required of strong teams and how to apply them to resolve conflict.
