Developing Learning Teams
"
Team is like a wrist watch – lots of different
parts, but the whole has value only when all work
together. Even if the smallest part is broken, the
whole watch doesn’t work” – Gordon Bethune.
From established technology to emerging technology,
from pyramid to matrix structure, from national to
transnational – change, uncertainties and
ambiguities are ongoing phenomena in the business
environment. How can Leaders and Managers cope with
it, put new concepts into practice from theory,
implement strategies from book to ground and above
all integrate their teams to form a perfect Learning
Organisation?
The Kalypso ‘Developing Learning Teams’
Programme is Team oriented and is designed to suit
the specific training objectives of the Organisation.
Participants live in tents, trek hills, build rafts
to cross rivers and participate in a wide array of
fun and adventure based outdoor activities and
games. After each activity, they interact and
reflect on it, and draw conceptual insights.
Experienced Facilitators assist in the process and
help individuals to discover knowledge. Further, the
scenario is compared with the work environment to
determine as to how the learning can be transferred.
The process attempts to achieve ‘Phenomenal Changes
in Individual Behaviour and Team Processes’ with
particular emphasis on the following:
•
Team Cohesion
•
Perception, Outlook
•
Leadership, Managerial Skill
•
Communication Process
•
Interpersonal Skill
The process facilitates experimentation without
penalty, quick recall of learning, is reality based,
and is in an informal environment with level playing
field. The focus, all through the process, is ‘What
learning do we carry to our Organisation and
further, how do we, as a team, ensure being in a
recurring Learning Cycle’.
It
is a 2 nights/ 3 days programme at the scenic
Kalypso Nature Camp near Munnar. Alternatively, it
can be conducted at a Nature Camp at Thekkady or at
a Resort at Idukki. Resort based programmes can also
be done at other locations suitable to the client.
