YES& | TEAMS
COHESION, COLLABORATION, COMMUNICATION
AN INTEGRAL FRAMEWORK LEADING TO A HEALTHY, HAPPY AND THRIVING WORKPLACE
YES& TEAMS are programs intentionally designed to support individual and collective personal growth, self-leadership, and communication skills hosted by YES&.
Each series of workshops is designed to provide teams and workplaces with the tools and practices to develop resilience, improve relationships with stress, and understand how burn-out and overwhelm come into play in a professional context.
Through practical activities that go beyond conceptual understanding, these workshops also explore team communication skills, and how increasing capacity to hold multiple perspectives can improve professional relationships.
The workshops will offer up tools, techniques and principles from an Integral perspective, utilising Ken Wilber’s Integral Theory AQAL Model and NeuroLinguistic Programming applied to working dynamically within teams that are driving toward a shared vision.
YES& Teams works with business owners and teams to custom design a unique combination of one-off workshops, workshop series, and/or group coaching sessions that suit the needs of their workplace. The sessions increase synergy & alignment and provide the tools for team members to contribute to the purpose of the group from a thriving place.
Supporting team members to increase their capacity for resilience, emotional intelligence and effective communication allows whole teams to build cohesion and develop collaboration skills.
The team will increase their capacity to:
Utilise right mindset and language to deal with feelings and thoughts of overwhelm, stress and anxiety and develop resilience.
Hold multiple perspectives, which facilitates a workplace culture of increased clarity, communication, efficiency, care and enjoyment.
Navigate complexity within groups and/or teams, including seeking and giving feedback, asking powerful questions and listening deeply.
Improve emotional intelligence and step with confidence and care into difficult conversations and develop a supportive culture in the team that lifts each other up.
Develop the capacity to find solutions and opportunities in challenging situations.
Balance personal and professional lives and integrate both for a more wholesome and fulfilled personal and professional life.
Understand self more deeply through personality profiling and learn how to work best with strengths and blind spots for each individual within a professional setting.
Step into accountability and autonomy in each individual within the team and the team as a whole.

Testimonial
Beachside Physiotherapy
"The work our team has done with YES& has been such an amazing journey of discovery, learning and reflection.
The YES& crew has such an amazing capacity to meet the team exactly where they are, and deliver content in a way that is both thought provoking and super relevant to working in a team and life generally.
The growth I’ve seen not only within the team, but within the individuals within our team has been amazing to watch. We are building and developing a deep understanding of each other, which in turn is creating greater clarity in communication, an ability to hold multiple perspectives and a culture that has a real layer of depth to it."
