Enhancing team dynamics
At LORE, we believe that enhancing individual and group/team skills, knowledge and behaviours in a way that ensures the learning is fully embedded, needs to be in an environment that fosters and supports growth.
The metaphor that we often use, is one of a seed. The seed is the individual learner. This learner really needs fertile soil, nourishment, and encouragement to grow – their environment is key to this. If their ground is stony, starved of water and sun, this seed no matter how brilliant will not flourish. In the corporate arena, this is the difference between attending a learning programme and organisational development.
Group/Team training enhances knowledge, skills, and collaboration among individuals working together. It improves team dynamics, attitudes and mindsets, communication, problem-solving, decision-making, and goal attainment. The goal is to create a cohesive and high-performing team that works even more effectively towards shared objectives.
“Find a group of people who challenge and inspire you, spend a lot of time with them, and it will change your life.”
Why Team Training?
Team training is a strategic investment aimed at bolstering the synergy and competence of groups within an organisational framework.
By providing structured training experiences, teams can enhance their collective capabilities and work collaboratively towards common objectives.
The rationale behind team training lies in its ability to cultivate a collaborative culture, nurture effective communication, and develop specialised skills tailored to the unique needs of the team and the organisation.
Team training empowers individuals to contribute their best, promoting a sense of unity and proficiency that leads to improved productivity, problem-solving, and the successful achievement of organisational goals.
Who is it for?
Primarily, team training is designed for intact teams or groups of individuals within an organisation who collaborate regularly to achieve common objectives.
This could include teams within departments, project teams, cross-functional teams, or any other group that interacts closely to fulfil specific organisational goals.
Additionally, team training is beneficial for managers and team leaders who seek to enhance their leadership skills and effectively guide their teams. It's also valuable for employees at various levels within the organisation, equipping them with the necessary skills to function optimally within a team-oriented work environment.
Team training is a versatile solution catering to both the collective needs of groups striving for better collaboration and the individual growth of professionals aiming to contribute effectively to a team dynamic.

How does it work?
Team training sessions are held both in person and/or online. LORE Consultancy delivers training programmes both in the UK and internationally.
Although we have 23+ years’ experience and have a lot of data and psychological models to leverage, we like to talk to you and create something bespoke with your individual needs in mind. This way we not only create buy in, we also ensure its relevant and lasts longer than the training itself.
Example programmes LORE has run are:
Brand Academy – a one day immersion into the world of branding, the importance this plays when representing a brand and how this translates into expectations and standards through the customers experiences.
Coaching for Performance – a two-day programme exploring how coaching is underutilised in the workplace and how it differs from performance management and mentoring. This is then developed into why coaching matters and best practice to amplify talent, confidence, responsibility, and competence within teams.
“Amanda and I first worked together at BMW Group nearly 20 years ago and have stayed in touch ever since; a passionate believer in the value of lifelong learning, Amanda seeks to enable and create sustainable transformation in individuals, groups and organisations through engaging, targeted interventions that are always delivered to a high standard - whilst also ensuring the learning is fun!”
“The most effective training I have attended, thank you Amanda for the engaging all members of the marketing team. The conversation flowed extremely well, I felt you really understood the audience and what each member needed to learn in order to achieve our learning outcome. The content was relevant, interesting and simplified in a beautiful way. The topic of coaching and professional presenting is broad and very challenging, I now believe I can, because you showed me how and built my confidence. The topic was very challenging and highly technical, your mastery in facilitating made it very easy for the participants achieve their goals and I was surprised how far I progressed from our first session. I very much hope I can participate in some advanced training in the future with you. Thank you so much on behalf of our team.”

Following the initial conversation, if we are lucky enough to be invited to submit a proposal, we like to offer three alternatives, like platinum, gold, and silver.
