Ever been in a team with an argumentative individual or two, does your team go around in circles? This workshop is for you, we will co-create a behaviour model to help your team and introduce you to some existing ones.

Long synopsis (optional):
Drawing on the work of Neil Rackham I will be teaching participants about the model by asking them to create a communication model whilst analysing their behaviour. This is my favourite team coaching tool for surfacing unhelpful behaviours and to help the team improve how the communicate. Workshop Structure 30 mins The participants to create a behaviour model During this someone from each team marks the team without their knowing on their behaviours 15 mins Review behaviour models created as a group 10 mins Talk through Rackham communicating behaviours model Reveal the behaviours exhibited during earlier exercise to each of the teams in the workshop 15 mins Reflect and have another go at creating a model 15 mins reflect on the behaviour changes Partial Example of Rackhams communication model. Seeking information Asking questions to find out what people think Bringing in Used to involve a quiet member of the team in the conversation, normally includes using their name Testing understanding Making certain that you have really understood another’s contribution, usually by asking questions Proposing Suggesting something on which the team can take action. ‘it’s really cold today’ is not a proposal, ‘let’s turn up the heating’ is Giving information Offering views and making statements Shutting out Any way in which you stop another person from contributing. It can include interruptions, side conversations, asking a question of one person but letting another answer, etc. It can be very subtle Disagreeing Anything that says you can’t go along with what’s being proposed or stated Defending/Attacking Graduating from disagreeing; getting off the topic and talking about the person. ‘Why can’t you ever make a sensible suggestion?’ is one example. It usually results in the other party fighting back and can continue in a loop for a long time Hand drawn flip charts bikablo style, I am bikablo trained. Interactive and usually incredibly powerful tool for reflecting back behaviours. Holding up the mirror to the team. I am an experienced conference speaker and facilitator having presented at many conferences and consistently received great ratings. Gwen Diagram would be able to vouch for how good I am if references would help this submission. Further References from Coaching and Leadership ideas for example the Barefoots PG Cert in business and personal coaching and from Living Leaders course which I have attended.
