<p>This webinar is suitable for individuals who lead and manage a team.Â  It is intended to provide a greater understanding of the dynamics and variables that can affect team performance and ultimately the success of the team.</p>
<p>A team may consist of two or people working together or independently to achieve a common goal or output.Â  Team dynamics reflects the relationship that exists within a team and is the outcome of how team members in their distinct roles and behaviours impact upon the other members of the group as a whole.</p>
<p>The webinar provides an insight into the term â€˜team dynamicsâ€™ and an overview of the factors can influence them within the team or between the team and the leader.</p>
<p>Covering some of the key â€˜teamâ€™ concepts such as Belbin, the Tuckman model and Lencioni, delegates can gain a greater insight into the function and disfunction of teams and the role played by certain factors.</p>
<p><strong>Benefits</strong></p>
<p>An understanding of the role and responsibilities that the team leader has in influencing the team members and the overall success of the team.</p>
<p>Strategies for improving team dynamics and creating a solid â€˜team ethosâ€™.</p>
<p>Learning about the causes of poor team dynamics and how to avoid them.</p>
<p>Knowledge of established â€˜teamâ€™ models such as Belbin, Tuckman and Lencioni.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Suitability and Overview</strong></p>
<p>This webinar is suitable for individuals who are involved in the shaping of and delivery of the strategy of an organisation, providing an insight into the tools, methods and models strategic planning ahead of any implementation.</p>
<p>Strategic planning is a systematic and documented process for enabling key decision-makers to decide the future direction, vision and aims of the organisation, considering the prevailing internal and external conditions.</p>
<p>Decisions that we call strategic are those likely to affect organisational performance over the coming years and they are viewed in relation to recent, current and predicted future performance and other variables that are likely to influence performance.</p>
<p>Looking at the typical strategic tools and models available to an organisation, in an internal and external context, the webinar examines how they can help shape strategic decisions and lead to more effective strategic planning.</p>
<p><strong>Benefits</strong></p>
<p>To learn about and understand the different tools and models used in strategic planning.</p>
<p>Understand the relationship between the strategy and the future outputs, achievements and successes of the organisation.</p>
<p>To enable delegates to contribute, in some measurable way, to improving overall organisational performance.</p>
