Team Building

Building a good team is the single most important thing a Manager can do to achieve a successful project.

With the right attitude, a team will overcome almost any difficulty to succeed in its goals.

Even when there is no pressure, the team's spirit and enthusiasm will be reflected in the quality of the solution and the extent to which other people buy-in to it.

There is a whole area of academic study and practical experience about building good teams. Business psychologists present many theories concerning the way in which people interact.

You generally need: 
  • shared belief in the value and achievability of the team's goals,
  • awareness of the value of the individual's own role and contribution,
  • recognition of the value of other team members (whether they are key specialists or just non-specialist, junior assistants),
  • desire to work collaboratively, sharing thoughts, ideas, concerns, etc,
  • friendship - enjoying working together with a common purpose,
  • supporting each other in recognition that the team's success requires all members to be successful,
  • coaching junior members rather than bossing them,
  • listening to ideas and advice from other team members,
  • making time to communicate with other team members,
  • celebrating successes,
  • rewarding good team behavior in financial and non-financial ways.
So at Dancing Hen Nights we have created something to help your team work together - share fun - share the experience and learn how to interact.

Your team will get the chance to socialize on this "away-day" at an activity that anyone could enjoy - with previous experience not required.
