Course description
Team Up for Emotionally Intelligent Innovation
Team synergy – “having your energy together” – is essential for your group to innovate at its best. VCI’s research and experience has revealed 8 qualities that create a positive Team Climate for innovation:
- Commitment, Conscious risk-taking, Character & courage, Collaborative learning, Creativity with diversity, Cooperative decision-making, Congruence of thought-word-action, and Celebration of achievement + learning.
These qualities promote innovative teams that are as safe and trusting as they are dynamic and challenging. For team building that fosters this healthy climate for innovation - even with virtual teams - it’s important to recognize, nurture, and put each quality into daily practice.
Each of the 8 Team Climate qualities has specific behaviors you can put into action today. This course includes a self-assessment and personal profile with insights about the qualities you bring to any team you belong to. It's an essential Talent Management solution for fostering the collaborative teamwork for human centered design.
