Continuing Series!!

This year the Non-Profit Staff Development Coalition Project (NPSDC) www.learningconnections.org/coalition/
is continuing its popular “Building Leadership Skills” series (developed in 2008) with two new workshops. These workshops will be addressing need areas in facilitation and problem solving/decision making. 

 

"Building Leadership Skills 2" Series

 

Workshop 2:

Problem Solving and Decision Making Skills for high performance teams

 

Tuesday, August 4, 2009
9:00 am – 4:00 pm

Location:
The 2100 Building
2100 24th Ave S.
Seattle WA 98144

 

WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION:

This interactive workshop is designed to improve critical management and leadership skills that help teams more effectively collaborate, make decision and solve problems.

Skills are developed through the use of a structured model for problem solving, and using tools appropriate to each step in team problem solving. Experiential exercises are used to guide participants in learning and using the tools and skills necessary to improve team problem solving.

Participants also practice building and maintaining an open and supportive team climate through the use of skills learned in the previous module on Facilitation Skills.  This workshop is a "standalone"; however, for those who attended the other workshop, it will provide additional opportunity to practice skills such as simple climate-checking listening skills, risk-taking, open communication and trust-building behaviors.

 

Participant Outcomes:   By the end of this workshop, you will be able to: Solve problems effectively as a team Be able to make effective decisions as a team Understand the barriers to group decision making Know and use the different methods of group decision making Use a model for better group decision making Use a variety of team problem solving tools
