Are you really getting your people’s best thinking?
Away-days, off-sites, brainstorm sessions all require a significant investment of senior management time. They can be very productive but only if you can break through some frequent barriers to success.
JSB`s team of expert facilitators have broad experience in preparing, designing and facilitating successful, high-value events for senior teams. We help the groups we facilitate avoid common pitfalls:
- Lack of an agreed and focused agenda
- Meetings getting bogged down in politics
- Circular discussions centred on well worn points of view
- A failure to challenge established ways of doing things
- Personal and organisational `baggage`
- Failure to see the `wood for the trees`
Progress comes from confronting issues and developing workable strategies and solutions. Through working with many senior teams, from different sectors, we have developed a simple yet effective approach to facilitation which will help:
- Build engagement and participation
- Get people to focus on the real issues
- Surface underlying blockages to progress
- Manage complex group dynamics
- Develop shared responsibility and commitment to action
- Enhance collaboration and synergy
- Make the best use of valuable management time and energy
We use well established processes and methodologies to ensure you derive maximum value from your event. Working with you we will design a tailored programme that provides a clear structure and the flexibility to respond to and deal with issues as they arise.
Whatever your aim – to develop new business plans or strategies, to build team cohesion and enhance performance, or to create space for `blue-sky` thinking and generate new solutions and approaches – we can help you forge your next steps forward.
