Session Description:

Often companies utilize measurement tools to profile their employees, and nothing comes further out of that. Teams are built by the accomplishments of the individuals not necessarily based on their strengths to create strong and well-dispersed team. Furthermore, group or department leaders assign individuals to the deliverables based on their titles not necessarily what they are good at.

• Have a group learning and insight discussion
• Create a strategy to walk away from the session on how to utilize team’s strengths moving forward
