TEAM-BUILDING
"Bringing together disparate personalities to form a team is like a jigsaw puzzle...We want to make sure our players fit together properly and complement each other...If personalities work against each other, as a team, you'll find yourself spinning your wheels." - Pat Summit -
Developing and maintaining good team chemistry is one of the most challenging obstacles leaders face.
When team drama and conflict disrupt chemistry and impact team performance and enjoyment, even great leaders often don't know what to do.
Research shows that "team-building" activities many teams engage in seldom have positive long-term effects because the vast majority focus on short-term fun and fail to address the real issues and challenges that cause problems in teams.
We work with teams and leaders on real issues like commitment, accountability, poor communication, and conflict.
Our goal is to prevent team chemistry issues by teaching team members and leaders how to identify issues that impede performance and successfully navigate issues to improve team and individual performance.
Attitude and chemistry are the factors that control winning, no matter what the talent level. - Gary Barnett -

"I have tried to step up my leadership abilities by keeping the team on track of what we are supposed to be doing, whether it be at practice or even off the field...
