Get to the Top with TowerTeam
TowerTeam is a proven team-building process,
born of experience and practical application, implemented specifically for your environment. |
Have you ever wondered why it is so hard to translate your vision into reality?
We studied successes and failures to see what made them so. The successes all shared one trait. The failures all lacked it... |
...Effective Teamwork
The 2004 Boston Red Sox had good players but not the best individual performers in the league. The key to their ability to break the 96-year World Series Curse was teamwork, pure and simple. The formula is not secret and not hard to understand... but it is difficult to implement. To quote Patrick Lencioni, "It’s TEAMWORK that remains the ultimate competitive advantage. Both because it’s so powerful and so rare."
Breathtaking Results
Most enterprises fail not because the vision was wrong; not because there lacked discipline and hard work and not because of a shortage of skill.
They fail because of people. Good people, trying hard to work together and failing.
The problem is, most people are not only untrained in effective teaming, but we are actually trained from an early age not to team.
Even worse, competition is hard wired into us. Our evolutionary past bred our need to vanquish. This is a need that resides in a primitive part of the human brain. A part of the brain that cannot reason. A part of the brain that has no access to language. A part of the brain that can manifest only in emotion, in feeling and in action.
So.. we are a species predisposed to compete with one another and then trained by formal education to focus on individual achievement.
Can we hope for effective teamwork?
Yes, we can!
The TowerTeam program harnesses your team's competitive tendencies, refocusing the competitive drive on external targets, not on each other.
Our experiential learning techniques speak to the non-verbal part of the brain that drives team dysfunction, turning negative interactions positive.
This form of training "sticks". Most team training dies out after a few weeks in the field. TowerTeam graduates come away addicted to the good feelings produced by their high energy exchanges and rewarding performance.
To quote Patrick Lencioni, from The Five Dysfunctions of a Team;
“Not strategy. Not technology. It’s TEAMWORK that remains the ultimate competitive advantage.
Both because it’s so powerful and so rare."
He goes on;
"If you can get all the people in an organization rowing in the same direction you can dominate
any industry, in any market, against any competition, at any time.”
.... Breathtaking!

Success calls. Will you answer?
Yes! I want to enable my team to dominate
OUR market, against OUR competition, NOW.
OUR market, against OUR competition, NOW.
