How Cohesion can help your business

In Cohesion, participants lead a high-performing teams project. They must earn the support of their team members for a new way of working while actively building the team’s effectiveness. The simulation focuses on trust, communication, power dynamics, and conflict resolution—key ingredients for sustainable team performance.

Team building and trust:

  • Build relationships that support collaboration
  • Understand how process and change work together
  • Listen actively to guide team development

Team dynamics and leadership:

  • Manage team priorities and new information
  • Recognise and navigate social and hierarchical power
  • Conduct effective team health checks

Conflict and communication:

  • Resolve interpersonal and structural conflicts
  • Balance individual needs with collective goals
  • Adapt leadership styles to meet team challenges
