The best teams are balanced, focused and demonstrate well developed patterns of communication. Team members understand and appreciate the differences in the team and use them in a deliberate way for the success of the whole team.
In this half-day program, supported by the Insights Discovery psychometric tool, participants examine their own communication preferences as well as those of their colleagues. Together they determine various measures to achieve more effective communication in their team.
Each participant receives an individual Insights Discovery report. With interactive exercises, role plays and small group work, our experienced trainers ensure that what has been learned continues to have an impact after the program.
The Insight Model
Participants are introduced to the four-color Insights model, which is very easy to remember. It provides a useful and neutral “common language” that reduces conflict and makes it possible to talk about interpersonal dynamics in the team – even after the training.
Online Evaluation
Participants will be asked to complete the Insights Discovery online evaluator approximately 2 weeks prior to the workshop. Completing the evaluator is confidential and takes approximately 15-20 minutes.

FAQ
How does Insights® Discovery help improve team communication?
Insights® Discovery creates a shared language within teams. It helps people understand differences, reduce misunderstandings, and communicate more clearly. The result is more trust, better collaboration, and fewer conflicts.
How does an Insights® Discovery workshop on team communication work?
Before the workshop, participants complete an online questionnaire. During the workshop, individual communication patterns are analysed, misunderstandings are unravelled and strategies for clearer collaboration are developed. treetrunk supports the process from preparation through to follow-up.
Who is the Insights® Discovery communication workshop suitable for?
The workshop is suitable for teams of any size and from any sector who wish to improve their communication and collaboration. It is particularly effective for new team set-ups, during change processes, or when recurring misunderstandings are straining collaboration.
Can Insights® Discovery also help with existing conflicts within a team?
Yes. Many conflicts stem from differences in communication and perception styles. Insights® Discovery is therefore also used in conflict coaching: when everyone involved understands that a particular behaviour is driven by a style pattern rather than malicious intent, this opens up new avenues for discussion surprisingly quickly.
