A Slice of Corporate Culture: Understanding team dynamics...
2024-01-31 12:00 - 13:00 | Via Zoom, United Kingdom
Understanding team dynamics to better performance and wellbeing!
31 January 2024
Our expert guest Zoé shares with us her signature workshop ‘A Slice of Corporate Culture’ which breaks down the complexities of team dynamics using the metaphor of cake, something Zoé is also passionate about!

What You Will Get From The Session
Teams that are underperforming, or chronically affected by poor staff wellbeing are costing businesses money in sick pay, staff turnover and increased HR support. Being able to support businesses with your expertise in this area can make you the go-to person to help them repair the damage.
This session:

Will provide you with a new way of understanding team dynamics which you can apply to any business or organisation that you support.
You will be able to identify sources of conflict and provide ideas for how to eliminate or reduce these conflicts by increasing understanding across teams.
You will also be able to identify some reasons why teams are underperforming and be able to provide suggestions for ways in which this can be reversed.

About Our Guest Speaker Zoé Carroll
Optimising team performance relies on optimising both individual performance and team dynamics. Zoé has been helping teams to perform for over two decades, and teaching leadership and teamwork for more than 10 years.
As a military veteran, operating under extreme pressures, Zoé developed a passion for understanding why some people buckle under pressure while others thrive. She studied both the psychology and physiology of performance at degree level and took this further with her studies into fear and performance with extreme sportspeople during her master’s degree.
She has taught in both further and higher education, supported extreme adventurers and entrepreneurs with their mindsets, and now consults with businesses around team performance, managing dysfunctional teams, managing change and developing leadership.

Zoé‘s Testimonials
I really enjoy working with Zoé, her enthusiasm, commitment, positive outlook and happy disposition are infectious and inspiring. Nigel Rafferty, programme delegate
I’ve gained so much from our session, I’ve come away with clarity, goals and armed with some amazing tools to help me on my way. I can’t thank Zoe enough.
Lucinda, workshop delegate
Mel Robbins can’t be everywhere so it’s just as well we have our very own wonderful South Coast version. Zoé is so clever at marrying science with holistic learnings to explain clearly HOW THINGS ARE and she has such a huge wealth of life and career experiences to apply them to, to demonstrate both clearly and in plain English. Zoé was very wholeheartedly recommended to me and I wholeheartedly recommend her to you ?. Chloe, workshop delegate
The workshop far exceeded my expectations and I am taking away with me a whole range of strategies to help cope with a huge variety of situations which I was not expecting. Rachel, workshop delegate
