Facilitated team development and experiential learning

“Teamplayer: One who unites others toward a shared destiny through sharing information and ideas, empowering others and developing trust.”

At BlueSky Experiences, facilitated experiential learning is about giving individuals and the team the tools and skills to push performance and sustain improvement.

Our professional Facilitated Team Development Programmes are designed, developed and delivered in close partnership with our clients, so the content of each unique programme is determined according to the demographics of the team and the objectives that you set for them.

Great emphasis is placed on achieving your business goals, and thus on developing the values, behaviours and expectations that will help the team function effectively in your business environment.

Why do companies invest in team development?

Facilitated team development appeals to companies and organisations for a wide variety of reasons. The issues most frequently cited by our clients include:

• Communication, especially the skills and processes involved in giving and receiving feedback.
• Responsibility and ownership of team and individual tasks.
• The 80:20 rule – which issue, if tackled, would bring the biggest benefits.
• Resistance to change – initiating changes and making them stick.

By delivering a tailor-made programme, designed to address the specific issues identified through our needs analysis process, we implement constructive team building strategies based on our proven techniques and experiential learning activities.

Our experienced professional facilitators intervene during the team development process whenever appropriate, guiding and encouraging participants, and providing frank, constructive feedback both during and after the programme.

How do companies benefit from BlueSky’s experiential learning programmes?

Teams derive many benefits from our experiential learning programmes, including:

• Team members learn how to identify team issues and develop ways to resolve them.
• Teamwork becomes increasingly cohesive and intuitive.
• The team becomes focussed on solutions and success.
• Business performance is enhanced.

The significant role played by facilitated experiential learning in successful team development is recognised by the majority of leading UK companies, and it is this that encourages clients to return to BlueSky regularly for further courses.

Our team development programmes are constantly being reviewed and enhanced to ensure that they are pushing forward the boundaries of experiential learning. When your team returns to the workplace having completed one of our facilitated team development programmes, we are confident you will notice a tangible improvement in their approach to teamwork, not to mention significant increases in motivation and productivity.
