Building and Motivating High Performance Teams Conference
Auckland, 1 - 2 November Wellington, 8 - 9 November Building and Motivating High Performing Teams captures the building blocks of teamwork and translates these into practical techniques that you can apply to your own team and your own leadership style. The skills required to successfully lead and develop teams are often described as 'soft' skills… but there's certainly nothing 'soft' about finding truly meaningful ways to enable your team to excel through better engagement, communication, collaboration and creativity. www.conferenz.co.nz/training/building-and-motivating-high-performance- teams-0
