Coaching,
Trust, Communication |
The
purpose of this exercise is to practice clear communication
and develop keys to trust during challenging and confusing
times. The exercise creates a great deal of confusion and
sometimes frustration as communication becomes difficult.
Feedback,
both giving and receiving is the essence of communication
and MUST be practiced here in order for the participants to
accomplish their tasks. Due to the inherent communication
difficulty the exercise creates, a high level of commitment
is required by all participants. How many members of the team
are not committed to the goals at work?
In addition,
all of the participants experience the different roles
of leading and following. This allows them to recognize
their strengths and weaknesses individually and as a team.
This event lets the participants experience the need to be
leader and follower.
Because
of this role-switching, this event will remind people in each
position what the other role feels like and lend insights
to improving relations between the two.
This
event is FUN!
A
glimpse into Get It Together:
After
pairing up, one blindfolded person goes into a large circle
to retrieve certain items, with only their partners instructions
as guidance. The catch here is the partner must stay on the
outside of the circle. Still seems fairly simple until all
the pairs are in the middle at the same time.
This
activity is a step beyond our Leader Walk team building exercise
and helps participants experience the need for trust, the
need for planning and the difficulties of communicating while
being both coach and coachee.
Who should go for Get It Together?
- Groups who need to begin trusting each
other beyond simple 'trust' activities through clear communication.
- Groups looking to improve coaching (communication)
skills
What
will the group learn from Get It Together?
- Planning
and strategy is important, even for seemingly simple tasks
and goals.
- The
need to communicate with someone the way THEY will hear
it best, not how WE communicate best.
- Trusting
is a very important part of a supportive work environment.
