Teams rarely struggle because they lack capable people. More often, work gets harder when interpersonal conflict, unresolved tension, and different ways of working create friction that carries from one interaction to the next.

When people misinterpret what’s driving a colleague’s behavior—or teams leave recurring tensions and expectations unresolved—coordination becomes harder, relationships deteriorate, and work stalls.

Join us for a free, one-hour virtual preview of Crucial Teams® and the Strength Deployment Inventory® (SDI®) to explore two distinct approaches to these challenges. SDI helps people understand the motives behind behavior and interpret one another more accurately. Crucial Teams helps teams manage the relationship dynamics that develop over time.

What You’ll Learn:

  • How interpersonal conflict, assumptions, and unresolved interactions can create recurring friction for teams.
  • How SDI helps people understand motives and interpret behavior more accurately, especially when conflict arises.
  • How the four views of SDI®—motives, conflict, strengths, and overdone strengths—provide insight into how people work and how to best respond to one another.
  • How Crucial Teams helps teams address past interactions, respond more effectively in the present, and clarify expectations for working together going forward.
  • Flexible learning formats and delivery options for bringing these solutions to your organization.
