CircleUp for RP - Guiding Team Building Circles - June 16, 2020

Description:

How are people supposed to work or learn together if they do not know each other, or even worse, do not trust one another? Building a well-connected team with people who feel a sense of community and who can see themselves in others, creates more efficient and happier learning and working environments. Team Building Circles are ideal for enhancing and building stronger team bonds and relationships. This training will teach you how to identify specific team or interpersonal areas that need development and how to do so using online team building circle structures and activities. This training will provide you examples of team building circles and resources to design a wide variety of them to meet your classroom or workplace needs.
