How We Work
When working with Groups of individuals, we have a proven methodology to align the team, group, or department that can provide the foundation for greater team effectiveness and sustainability. Since no group exists in a vacuum, we do not ONLY work with the group. All groups, teams, or departments are impacted by or even controlled by things outside of the group which must be examined for any group to understand itself and develop.
What You Can Expect
Working with TWG, your Team, Group, or Department can expect a thorough look at all of the systems that exist that are impacting the “friction & flow” of the group. Since it is rare that EVERYTHING can be addressed or “fixed,” together we would decide where the greatest leverage is and design customized interventions and development plans to exponentially advance your Team, Group, or Department.
Case Study - Leaders
The Woodland Group designed, created, and managed a consortium providing full-service organizational development and training services for a mix of companies in multiple industries such as Health Care, High Tech, Manufacturing, Banking, Education, Utilities, and Public Service to name a few. There was the economy of scale, ease and frequency of access, and a bonus by-product of “cross-pollinated” learning –different industries learning from other industries.
“The Woodland Group is the best! The leadership development that my managers and emerging leaders have received through The Woodland Group is truly unique. They brought a level of personal interaction that instilled trust in what was brought to each of the learning & development sessions. Not only did they come prepared with an effective curriculum, but it was delivered in a way that was impactful, engaging, deeply sincere and personal. I am glad to have been associated with The Woodland Group’s Leadership Development program for almost twenty years with many successful graduates who have become our next generation of leaders.” ~ President, Global Manufacturing Company
