Bias to Improvement

An interactive workshop that gives teams the tools to hold higher expectations of themselves and teammates. We've found that performance is a team effort rather than a solo endeavor. High performers are not only self-motivated but are also held to high standards by those around them. The saying "you are the sum of the people closest to you" holds true in the workplace, and we see this in our 20+ years of Human Performance Data.

However, holding high standards leads to a common challenge – there is a real tension between pushing teammates to excel and (at the same time) supporting each other. We know how to help teams strike that balance. This hands-on workshop quickly builds one of the key skills need for teammates challenge each other effectively: bias toward improvement. After our “in practice” workshop, we will cover some of theory that underpins these techniques including growth mindset, stress-is-enhancing mindset, the mentors’ dilemma, radical candor and more.

Who this is for: Teams who are looking to raise the bar and reach a higher potential.
