Team Building Event: Enhancing Communication

Every organisation has challenges with communication. Whether it be within same site teams or across remote teams, effective communication is vital if teams are to perform at their best.

You already know that most people would want to communicate more often and openly within their organisation - if only they had the time! We know that many of the problems faced by teams are directly related back to poor communication. But it's not that simple. Poor communication can eat away at trust, collaboration, and willingness to speak up or contribute fully and can cause major problems in terms of quality, efficiency and achievement of goals.

To support organisations in maximising the quality of communication within and across teams, Summit devised a unique, holistic approach that can literally transform how people within teams communicate and support each other. Don't worry, there's no ‘pink and fluffy, touchy feely' bits. It is though packed to the rafters with proven, practical and easy to apply tools, principles and techniques that will provide you with a worthwhile learning, thought-provoking team activities and a bundle of fun along the way.

Summit takes great care to ensure that each event matches client's most important goals. That way you can feel confident that your team building event adds lots of value to you and your team.
