Building the Executive Team by Wallace Associates

Building Collaboration and Shared Vision in the Executive Team

 

·         Specially designed for the CEO’s (or MD’s) top team where trust, collaboration and shared goals are key to the company’s success

·         Uses the MBTI® Step II Report to identify how you relate with the CEO and other team members

·         Often followed by “Executive Development” – coaching assignments for each executive team member

 

This 2 day programme enables an executive team to raise levels of trust and transparency between members and the team leader and build a shared vision for the future. Team members profile their strengths and their potential pitfalls. Also, understanding the CEO’s leadership style, and learning how to work with it is a key to success. Together, this creates the culture for a highly collaborative team focused on a commitment to shared business goals.

 

Essential Preparations

 

Before the executive team meets for the programme, each team member completes the MBTI Step II questionnaire and receives feedback on the report. This may be done as a half day team event or as individual feedback sessions with the trainer.
