“BUILDING A THRIVING TEAM”
I have had the privilege recently to work with some of the team at PH Production Services Ltd.
I was asked to provide some sessions to equip them with tools and strategies to deal with stress and the high demands of working within a constantly pressured and unpredictable environment.
The course named “Building a Thriving Team” lasted for 6 weeks. The sessions were fun, interactive and practical as well as being backed up by evidence and sound reasoning.
There was a mix of group and individual activities.
Each hour long session provided important time for reflection, honest communication, a focus on recharging and well-being activities, and provided protected time away from the busy workload.
All of the participants identified that at the end of the course they had experienced a significant reduction in their levels of worry and stress.
The number of coping strategies used at the beginning of the course was minimal, but 6 weeks later each person identified at least 3 different strategies that they found helpful to reduce worry and anxious thoughts in their every day lives, both at home and at work.
Below is some of the feedback at the end of the course;
“Space to breathe and think.”
“A good blend of some practical tools and exercises and some group- based learning.”
“It was nice to hear about how others feel and that they are struggling with something and in a similar boat to myself.”
“It is the quickest hour of my week!”
“It helped me take an objective look at what balance looks like.”
“I liked being taken out of my comfort zone!”
