This workshop could be of interest to communicators in the Geneva region:

Do you feel that you’re not fully using your natural talents at work? Do you ever get frustrated as part of a “team” that doesn’t really function well as a team? Is team spirit sometimes jeopardized by difficult relationships with colleagues?

If yes…then join us for this fun, interactive workshop to learn how the Belbin Team Roles approach can help you to develop your self-management skills, understand the unique contribution you can make within a team and build productive working relationships.

The workshop will be run by Liz Tayfun and Sarah Clark, both Belbin Team Role accredited facilitators. 

Price per person CHF 290, which includes an individual Belbin report with observer assessments, workshop files and refreshments.

Number of participants limited to 20.

New trends in communications, marketing and media
