We first learn about your needs and work with you to develop a retreat that will benefit your organization. Some possible retreat activities include:

  • Assessments that allow reflection and team building, including Strengthsfinder, Myers-Briggs (MBTI), and Basadur Profile
  • Facilitated small and large group discussions
  • Hands on activities
  • Vision and mission
  • Goal setting

BASADUR INNOVATION PROFILE

The Basadur Profile enhances team creativity, collaboration, and problem solving by helping each individual understand their unique problem solving preference and how that relates to their team members’ preferences. After completing the Profile, team members are led through hands on activities to help them better understand the results. Dr. Min Basadur developed the Profile based on over 40 years of research, and over 150,000 people have taken it. To learn more about the Profile, click here. Dr. Tad Dickel is a Certified Basadur Profile Administrator.

MYERS-BRIGGS

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI®) is a widely used inventory that helps people understand their own personality, how they view the world, and how they make decisions. When used in a team setting, the MBTI® can be an effective way of learning about yourself and how you relate to other members of a team. Teams work more collaboratively and communicate better when they understand and appreciate the similarities and differences of those around them. The MBTI® workshop is typically four hours in length.

GENERATIONAL DIFFERENCES IN THE WORKPLACE

Most organizations have three to four different generations working side by side. Understanding generational differences and similarities helps organizations work productively and collaboratively. This training empowers organizations to more effectively work together by understanding the different experiences and viewpoints of each generation. Managers learn how to lead through the generational differences, and all employees learn the unique contributions of each generation. The workshop can be customized to address specific generational issues that are experienced within an organization.

NONPROFIT BOARD GOVERNANCE TRAINING

Nonprofit boards play an extremely important role in the success of a nonprofit organization. Board members need to understand their roles and responsibilities that will enable the organization to thrive. Some of the topics include fundraising, board vs. staff responsibilities, setting a direction, and fiduciary oversight. This training can be customized to meet the unique needs of an organization and provides board and staff members opportunities for growth and discussion. Dr. Tad Dickel received a Certificate in Nonprofit Board Consulting from BoardSource.
