Overview
Government organizations are more collaborative than ever, yet teamwork today looks much different than it did before. As a team leader, you may now find yourself leading teams in virtual spaces, different time zones, and home-office distractions. Your team members may be facing more than just work challenges and could really use compassion and care. How can you maximize your skills to not only achieve results, but also strengthen your team?

This course will help you develop fundamental skills to be an effective team leader and a team member. You’ll learn the stages of team development, teamwork strategies, and collaboration tools to effectively lead your team and reach organizational goals. You’ll also explore different ways of promoting a facilitative culture in your workplace, and how empowering your teams to exercise decision-making at all levels creates an ideal environment for team building.

How You Will Benefit

The online portion of the Team Development class requires participants to communicate virtually in an online classroom, meeting weekly for a one-hour webinar, where the instructor will host guest speakers, make reading assignments and facilitate discussions on the course content and application of what was learned in the residential component.  Approximately two hours of preparation/homework each week will be required in addition to the one hour class. This is not a self-paced course; the group works as an integrated cohort.  The day of the week and time for the online meeting will be determined during the residential training component.
