The NEXTeams Five-Step Process...

  • Step One — challenge participants to get to the root of their 'organizational identity' and learn new ways to enhance that self-conception. The goal is to get everyone on the same page about purpose - the Real Mission of the organization.
  • Step Two — invite participants to explore their role within the organization - not only their job title and responsibilities, but the potential benefits that they can offer to the organization as a whole – the Personal Identities within the organization
  • Step Three — give participants a task to accomplish - exemplified through traditional 'teambuilding challenges.' The goal is to show through tangible experience the interdependence of the group – the TEAM within the organization.
  • Step Four — focus on transferring the lessons learned in the initial program, back to the 'real world' of their day-to-day organizational function. Simple steps the leadership can take to encourage cross-communication, innovation, an environment of openness in the team – the TEAM Environment within the organization.
  • Step Five — Following the initial four-step process, NEXTeams will be available for follow-up consultations and recurring “FLUX Re-Energizers.” – a chance to get together in the learning environment and check-in about things that are working and things that need more attention.
