Total Workshop Time: 3 Hours

Pre-requisites: TD2228:  Within the Team Communication

Description:

You’re on a team, but do you know the best ways to communicate as a member of a team?

Among Teams Communication is part of a 3 session certificate series that builds skills using assigned roles and goals from communication within the team where the norms are established, to communication among teams, and finishes with communication during stressful situations. Each session is a-la-carte, so you will need to enroll for each of the 3 sessions seperately in order to complete the series. Visit the Team Communication Certificate Series page for information about the other workshops in this collection.

Cross-functional groups must mesh their varying goals and job functions to produce the desired results of the current situation while continuing to directly support the mission of the university. In this session participants continue the journey at the toy company but the emphasis is on working with another department.

Objectives for the session are:

• Identify the need to negotiate communication norms across teams
• See how shared needs and shared goals improve results
• Consider the value of information networks
• Develop an action plan to communicate across groups/departments
