High Performing Organizations Part 2

Many corporations believe in doing some form of team building. However, many employees that have been say that for the most part the experience falls into one of two categories: lectures and trust exercises, such as ropes courses. Lectures usually focus on effectiveness, effectiveness based on your leadership style, personality style, etc. Ropes and wilderness outings focus on trust. But, as stated in The Heart of the Transformational Coaching Process bonding, or cohesiveness is just as important as being effective. The Corporate Development programs designed at Pillar Ranch address both of these foundational issues at once. Because of its experiential nature, it is possible for personal hindrances to show up that affect the workplace. Once the team sees what is being observed during the team building, it is able to be discussed, then lasting changes can occur that allow for that team to be effective and cohesive. That is what every organization wants to accomplish high performance.
