Sample Components for Leadership and Corporate Trainings
Initiative Games
Initiative games are a series of games which challenge participants to work together to accomplish specific tasks. Instructors focus on enhancing group communication and cooperation while students get to know one another through dynamic activities. Each initiative begins with an introduction and concludes with a debriefing, which are designed to identify various leadership styles and help students overcome problems within their group.
Trust Activities
Trust is a vital component to team building and group dynamics. Instructors encourage participants to start building trust within their group through hands on spotting and catching activities. As trust develops the perceived risk increases and the group becomes increasingly more responsible for each others’ physical and emotional safety.
Low Challenge Activities
These activities are mainly designed for individual development. Students challenge themselves through varies balance and body awareness activities while being spotted and supported by the group. Instructors encourage participants to push themselves beyond their perceived limits, which helps develop better self-confidence and trust among their peers.
Group Discussion
Group sessions allow participants and instructors to discuss leadership styles, communication skills, importance of cooperation, and the value of trust. Any group problems are addressed and discussed through an encouraging and emotionally safe format. Participants are encouraged to apply the skills they learn in our programs to their daily lives.
