Self-directed Team Effectiveness Programme (STEP)

STEP is nothing short of brilliant. It overcomes the foremost challenge of developing effective team performance – cost. Often the cost is a factor that is prohibitive in teams even setting about improving their performance and yet we think that teams can’t afford not to. Furthermore, STEP is designed to produce an enhanced effect, greater team commitment and a better overall outcome.

People, Relationships & Conflict - Improving Interpersonal Effectiveness

At its simplest level but extremely effective, team performance, morale and harmony can be fundamentally improved by adoption of the Medicology programme; People, Relationships & Conflict - Improving Interpersonal Effectiveness. This hugely successful programme delivers an enhanced understanding of people, difference and behavioural drivers, as well as how to get the best from teams in the areas of deployment, interaction, communication skills and more.

The programme is designed to be run over two days, preferable but not essentially consecutive, allowing adequate exploration of the full extent of psychological drivers. It can also be adapted as a one day accelerated programme designed to be run as an ‘away day’ specifically for team building purposes.

Leadership Development

The leader is probably the single most important driver of team effectiveness, harmony, performance and morale. An undeveloped leader has the ability to inadvertently wreak havoc with the team and therefore effective leadership development is often a necessary precursor to a high performance team.

The simplest solution is to send the team leader on the Medicology programme; Leadership Masterclass for Healthcare Professionals, during which they will discover how to appropriately lead teams, manage difference, set effective direction and create the conditions for high performance.
