. TEAMWORK FROM THE INSIDE OUT: The Smart Way to Team Success When the going gets tough, people sometimes split apart and look out for themselves. It easily happens in high-pressure times like these -- but it's something we have to prevent. We need to be working smarter, and that means we need to be working together more than ever. This session gives participants an insider's look into key factors that foster team commitment and engagement. They uncover their own most important factors while gaining insights into the highest priorities of other team members. But the session goes much further as people: Learn about the pressure points that can threaten group unity -- and find out how to deal with these situations before they do damage. See the big difference between discussion (with its win-lose mindset) and dialogue (which takes more time but leads to the best win-win outcome). Gain key insights into the art and science of understanding and managing emotions. A high level of emotional literacy is crucial to all teams. Get a quick course on "bidding for connection" and "turning toward," two powerful concepts that can dramatically improve team relationships. All of this is made real with practical examples, inspiring stories, and meaningful activities. In the workshop version of this session, participants talk about their discoveries during a facilitated dialogue. This process creates an important measure of team learning that can immediately boost a team's "click factor" while setting the stage for stronger working relationships in the long term.
