How much of your success at work is based on your ability to work effectively with others? Even if you are an individual contributor, we suspect that a very high percentage of your time is spent working on teams or at least with one other person. If you are a supervisor, manager, or leader, you must not only work well with others, you must motivate, coach, direct and inspire others in order to achieve maximum success.

Based on our decades of experience is assessing, building and repairing workplace relationships among diverse groups of people, we at Inclusity know that most people have no idea about the health and wellbeing of their relationships at work (or at home, for that matter).

Inclusity’s Relationship Dynamics Workshop is a brief but powerful introduction to our exclusive model explains important relationship dynamics such as power & control, Dominance and Subordinance, and collusion versus intentional dynamics change. Based on original work done by Carol Pierce, David Wagner, and Bill Page, our colorful and easy to understand model provides tremendous insight in a very short time.

The workshop is designed around the model, beginning with an interactive discussion to assist participants to learn the basic concepts. After several exercises and small group discussions, participants select one work and one personal relationship to analyze and then improve using the concepts learned in the workshop. The results, much improved trust, communication, and collaboration – the foundation of healthy, productive relationships.
