The workshop will give you an insight into effective and diverse teamwork at different stages of team development. Thanks to the awareness of relatively simple, yet often neglected patterns of behaviour, you will facilitate future communication not only with subordinates, but also with colleagues or other people within MU. The workshop focuses on working in an evolving team that is undergoing changes in both organizational structure and relationships. We will work with less common styles of leading people and how they interrelate. It is the way people are led that often determines success.

For whom is the workshop intended

The academic and non-academic managerial staff of faculties, HEIs, Rector's Office, and other economic centers. The workshop is designed especially for beginning or less advanced managerial staff.
