Overview

This experiential teamwork day is designed to bring Patrick Lencioni’s model to life through practical, outdoor activities that challenge, stretch, and unite teams. Rather than learning the theory in a classroom, participants experience the Five Behaviours in action—building insight through doing, reflecting, and applying learning directly to their working relationships.

Set in an outdoor environment, the day creates the conditions for openness, shared challenge, and honest conversation. Carefully facilitated activities encourage individuals to step outside their usual roles, rely on one another, and communicate clearly under pressure. These shared experiences form the foundation for deeper trust and stronger team bonds.

Throughout the day, the team explores:

Trust – Developing vulnerability-based trust by working together in unfamiliar settings, supporting one another, and recognising individual strengths.
Healthy Conflict – Learning to voice different perspectives constructively, challenge ideas, and engage in productive debate without personal friction.
Commitment – Practising clear decision-making and alignment, ensuring everyone understands and commits to agreed actions.
Accountability – Building peer-to-peer accountability through shared responsibility and mutual expectations.
Results – Shifting focus from individual success to collective outcomes, reinforcing what it means to win as a team.

By the end of the day, teams leave with stronger relationships, greater confidence in having open and honest conversations, and a shared commitment to working together more effectively. The learning is practical, memorable, and immediately transferable back into the workplace—supporting sustained improvements in teamwork and performance.

Teamwork Blockers

Teamwork Blockers are often very obvious and visible such as somebody blowing their top in the office. Other times they may be obvious blockers but not visible. Somebody with-holding vital information to get a project completed. And at other times, they may be not obvious and not visible, such as conflicting agendas pulling the organisation in different directions.

Misaligned objectives and conflicting goals Teams not focused around well defined results are very much hindered from achieving.
Undefined roles and responsibilities. When team members aren't sure who's responsible for what, tasks can fall through the cracks—or worse, be duplicated.
Lack of trust. Without trust, team members may hesitate to share ideas, ask for help, or admit mistakes. This stifles creativity, slows progress, and creates a fear-based environment.
Conflict avoidance or poor conflict management. Disagreements are natural, but if they're ignored or handled poorly, they can fester into deeper issues. Teams need safe ways to surface and resolve conflicts constructively.
Poor communication. Lack of clear, open, and consistent communication leads to misunderstandings, missed deadlines, and frustration. Team members may feel out of the loop or unclear about expectations.

Teamwork Breaks

A Teamwork Break is when the group see the whole picture and come together as a high functioning team to achieve an objective.

We call it "Dreamwork for Team Work"

Dreamwork for Teamwork is:

Empowering and trusting the team, within the framework of the organisational goals.
Providing effective feedback. Effective leaders offer constructive feedback regularly and celebrate wins, both big and small, to keep morale and performance high.
Allowing vulnerability. People lacking confidence and feeling the imposter is a major cause of inefficiency. Having a safe environment in which this can be expressed and offering the support and back-up to get people back on their feet is amazing dreamwork. Very often this is simply a case of improving a competency.
Asking for advice. Leaders who ask for advice are not weak, they're wise. Sometimes people don't know how to take this advice. These people generally don't have a solid framework for making decisions.
Confidently make bold decisions. And don't be afraid to reverse them. Many leaders have decision paralysis because they just don't want to be wrong. In reality however, this is a decision in itself. Far better to head down a direction with a reversal plan, should it become obvious that the route is wrong.
