 Leading High Performance Teams is an action-oriented three-day workshop for leaders, executives and managers who are committed to improving their leadership skills and helping their organizations build powerful, successful teams. This practical, thought-provoking and challenging workshop combines theory with a research-driven model and experiential learning to address specific issues and introduce more effective team-leading behaviors.
Learn How To Create And Sustain High Performance Teams
In today’s fast-paced business environment, successful teamwork is crucial for long-term survival. But teams are complex organizations, and can have surprisingly powerful internal rules. If not led well, the team as a whole can drag individual performance down and result in significant outcome and process loss. Research has shown that when team leadership improves, the teams themselves grow and perform better, the members are more satisfied with their roles, and the organization’s stakeholders are more satisfied with the outcomes.
Make this insightful program part of your organization's development effort. Leading High Performance Teams is available as a 3-day retreat or an in-house workshop to accommodate large organizations or multiple intact teams. Special team pricing makes the workshop more affordable and maximizes the program’s impact for your organization.

Leadership Development
“The Executive Forum Leadership Lab is an important part of our organization’s advanced leadership development program, and well worth the cost in both money and time. Our participants learned a lot about themselves as leaders during the Leadership Lab course. They also learned a great deal about effective communication, and were able to immediately apply what they learned at the Lab when they returned to the workplace. Most weeks they were eager to get back to their teams and put what they learned into practice. I think that is a pretty good endorsement of any training, don’t you? I’m confident that our participants in the Leadership Lab program will continue to implement the skills and tools they learned throughout their careers.
Thank you for providing such an excellent program to the business community!”
