Understanding and Improving Group Dynamics

Participants will learn principles of group dynamics and then observe and discuss them in action as they build towers in competition and observe each other solving social problems in sub-groups. They will learn to look below the surface in everyday meetings and groups to see how the group is or is not functioning together. This development session is great for helping new and existing teams improve their group dynamics and team collaboration.
