Group Dynamics:

Group dynamics are a huge part of our lives.  They are part of our home life, our work, our extended family and friends and any group activity we do.

Any kind of group is the strongest when each person is able to bring all of who they are to the table.  

Some of the questions we have to ask are:

• Why is it so easy to work with some people?
• Why do I react so strongly to some people and not others?
• How do we, as individuals, maintain our individuality while we are in the group?
• How do we, as a group, create a safe environment for everyone to truly be who they really are?

Seminar Topics:

1) Optimal Group Dynamics: Using the C.A.P.S. Personality Model for optimal group communication and creativity

The C.A.P.S. Personality Model is a fascinating system that explains how people work together.  

We each have a specific role that we tend to play in groups.  Understanding this and being able to recognize certain behaviour patterns in other people allows greater ease when working together because you understand where each other is coming from.

This is an effective and surprisingly simple tool that is helpful in marriages, family interactions and workplace dynamics.  Once you understand it, you will see it wherever you go!

2) Innovative Problem-Solving: Using the natural characteristics of everyone in your group to create new, "out-of-the-box" solutions

This seminar combines the C.A.P.S. Personality Model from the first seminar with classical brainstorming techniques.

Each of us contributes in a different way when problem-solving.  When we understand everyone's different roles, it is possible for everyone to shine.

This problem-solving model will create solutions that you can't come up with on your own.  It uses the synergy of the group to create something brand new.
