Throughout our careers we spend much of our time working in teams. Teams that are fluid and cross-functional with frequent change and people often working in different places and spaces. For teams to be high performing they need to develop high trust. A high trust team is one where there is respect, people are comfortable to be themselves and challenge each other, and where the whole adds up to more than the sum of the parts. In this session, we explore the key contributors to creating and sustaining a high trust team.

What you will learn:

• A framework for assessing team trust today
• How quality questions can create and increase team trust
• How to create a prioritised team action plan for creating/building/sustaining a high performance team
