Team Building

At TLF, we believe that we need to adapt our behavior to communicate effectively with the other members of our organization. Doing so creates win-win relationships. The DISC behavioral model is universally proven to provide applications for improvement in the following areas:
  • Communication
  • Sales
  • Team Building
  • Social Relationships
  • Job Selection
  • Customer Service
  • Career Planning
  • Conflict Resolution
  • Time Management
  • Goal Setting
  • Telemarketing
Dynamic Communication
Dynamic Communication is a behavioral-based seminar. It teaches people how to communicate using the DISC language to understand themselves and others. The seminar also incorporates a behavioral assessment to understand better what DISC is and how to use it.
Through our team building activity, employees learn how to interact with others and appreciate their behavioral styles within the organization. Dynamic Communication participants leave the seminar energized and ready to apply the knowledge they gained.
Employers begin to see the positive changes immediately after the seminar. People realize that differences are good and can be used effectively to make an organization successful. At the end of this seminar, the participants will:
  • Understand their behavioral design
  • Recognize, understand, and appreciate other people’s behavioral designs
  • Adapt for enhanced communication, understanding, and relationships
Participants do not stop learning when the seminar is over. Their Talent Insights Behaviors & Motivators Profile® report received prior to the seminar will allow them to continually learn about their behavioral style and improve their communication skills. The benefits of this seminar are endless.

Profile Assessment

Behavior is the doorway to communication. Meanwhile, effective communication stems from the right combination of tone of voice, words, body language, pace of speech and actions. These four areas are the components of a person’s behavioral style. Your behavioral design combines four adaptable factors called DISC, which stands for Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, and Compliance.
Why Learn About Behavior
Learning about a behavioral model will help people better understand themselves and others, enhancing personal and professional relationships. An understanding of behavior will accomplish the following:
  • Better Understanding of One Self
  • Increased Understanding of Others
  • Enhanced Communication
  • Higher Productivity
  • Improved Morale

Leadership Forum Roundtables

Business leaders wrestle with issues that cannot be discussed with family, staff, or associates. The following issues will wake you up in the middle of the night:
  • Should I dismiss a long-time employee who is holding back the company?
  • Are employees’ plates too full, or is there untapped potential?
  • Do I have a life beyond the company?
  • Am I short-changing myself, my family, and, ultimately, my company?
Accountability
Good leaders provide support and feedback to their employees to maximize decision-making. They also hold their staff accountable for the results. The TLF chair and members are committed to supporting one another while emphasizing the importance of follow-through and measuring results.
Executive Coaching
In addition to the one-day forum, each member meets with the TLF chair for 90 minutes monthly to explore ideas, opportunities, and problem resolution. The chair serves as a personal coach to members, ensuring commitments are kept and results are achieved.
The Leadership Forum
TLF breaks business leaders out of this isolated decision-making mold. We provide a completely confidential environment to discuss sensitive issues and receive candid feedback from those who walk in your shoes every day.
Knowledge
You are your company’s greatest asset. To stop seeking knowledge is to cease to grow. It will also cause your organization’s greatest asset to stagnate. Members learn proven strategies from experts for achieving outstanding corporate performance, including the following:
  • Benchmarking Leadership and Strategic Best Practices
  • Planning and Managing Organizational Change
  • Branding Successfully
  • Marketing Your Competitive Strategy
  • Valuation of Information Technology
  • Human Resource Laws and Issues
