Company: Creative Marketing Department
Problem: Bridge the Multi-generational Workforce Gap
The 10 employees of this team were dealing with tight deadlines and an increased work load, which resulted in high levels of stress and related disconnects among team members. A variety of behavior styles and different generational work ethics resulted in disunity among the group. The manager saw an urgent need to foster collaboration among the team.
Recommended Solution: TeamWide Workshop combined with the Golden Personality Type Profile® assessment
- Change the Venue: A full-day workshop took place at a serene and remote location to give the team a place to escape the stress and frenzy of the workplace.
- Create Awareness: We worked through a variety of team building exercises and introduced challenges along the way to simulate the workplace. The Golden Personality Type Profile results were introduced as a way to understand the different behavior styles followed by an engaging murder mystery challenge.
- Get Commitment: At the end of the day, our coaches guided discussions to address communication issues and differences. Ending on a positive note, the team was committed to collaboration and leveraging the strengths within the group.
- Change Behavior: The team returned to the workplace the next day with a new perspective on working as a team. The manager took action to minimize some of the frustrations expressed by the team members.
- Reinforce Learning: Six weeks later, we followed up with the team. They reported improved collaboration and communication among themselves.
