Building a team takes a lot of work. Leadership Vision has spent years figuring out how to create Strengths Based Teams. From simple, fun activities that give everyone a voice, to the hard work of thinking through the nuances of building a strong team. We’ve developed a model that will help your team operate fully engaged.
Below you will find several of our favorite activities for developing your Strengths and the Strengths of your team through interactive activities and questions.
Below are some of the best team building activities we’ve found to help explain, understand, and visualize the 34 Themes of Strength. Not only do they help team members understand one another, but they provide valuable insight to the individual as well.
How to Use Strengths with Your Team in 90 Minutes or Less
Team leaders regularly ask us how they can use Strengths in a short team-building meeting or off-site experience. While brevity with Strengths is better than nothing, creating healthy teams takes ongoing, meaningful engagement. Understanding Strengths is an ongoing process, but you gotta start somewhere!
Today on the podcast, we outline how to use Strengths in a 60 – 90 minute team building meeting. It’s meant to give you tools to start the conversation in the Strengths world, create a positive experience, and then hopefully move into more engaging Strengths-based conversation.
A Team Building Activity Using Your Images of Strength
In this episode of the Leadership Vision Podcast, we dive into a conversation from back in 2017 about images. We discuss the power of images, the power of finding objects, and how you can use them to get to know your Strengths and the Strengths of other people a little bit more. We also share a very helpful and practical show & tell activity that we encourage you to try with your team. Enjoy!
