Participants will be taught how to develop a WINNING ATTITUDE so as to produce HIGH RESULTS as a Team. Individual must understand their responsibility and the need to Change their Performance level in order to achieve both their Personal and Organisational Vision and Goals.

Building winning teams focus on changing the behavior and mind-sets of people, and changing the people-related and people-perpetuated systems that are involved teamwork. In other words, without significant individual change there is no Organisational or Team change. We must remember one fundamental rule “CHANGE BEGINS WITH ME (THE INDIVIDUAL)”.

The Program is to help participants understand how their actions and behavior will impact the team performance. They need to make Choices about their Attitudes and Actions. The intent is to help them understand and develop an Awareness of how their “choices” effect and determine the Results they get as opposed to feeling a “victim” of circumstances beyond their control. They will understand;

a. What Power they posses to Change their performance as team members.
b. Face the Reality “No Man is an Island”. We need others to help us succeed.
c. How to work together and develop the “Spirit of Togetherness”.
