Team Development
"Probably one of the most useful workshops I have ever attended in the 10 years I’ve been working in various fields.
Definitely something I think should be compulsory for every department.
As a result of this workshop our team have been able to increase our efficiency and functionality due to awareness of each individual’s strengths.
How we were operating prior is beyond me!"
Lani Wendt–Scanlan - AUT
"The course was an excellent two days, it went by so fast and learnt so much.
I wouldn’t change anything about it, it was informative, fun and facilitated at the right pace for the group"
Joanna Sharpe - Argosy Property
"A well run course. Made us think about the different personalities in the team and provided a mechanism to make communication and teamwork more effective"
Nigel Martin - Eastpack
"Felt the session was pitched well for the team in terms of experience, interest and the diversity of the team.
The session was a good mix of whole group work, individual work and team work. Good to get up and be able to work around.
Good to work on things individually and have enough time to reflect on the tasks and what we were asked to do"
Paula Rawiri - Ministry of Education
"Was really “eye-opening”. Enjoyed it (the first time I’ve actually enjoyed one of these)"
Lyn Foreman - Acurity Health Group
"There are many other courses out there that will canter of the outer-self, but this is one rare course which will help you understand your inner self.
Some of the information around self-awareness was enlightening.
I now know why I do things the way I do, and that every individual in my team has different profiles"
Alvin Datt - Mainfreight
"Overall a great day for the team to gain a greater understanding about each other.
We learned that our diverse preferences and skills can help us cover the various aspects of work.
Also, I can see that the resources that we got such as the meeting skills and differing project management stages being
very useful for setting the context / rules of engagement."
David Crowhen - Director Phonak & Operations, Phonak New Zealand
"Awesome Team Development Workshop. I would definitely recommend it."
Melody Aislabie - Manager Finance and Compliance, Sonova NZ (Wholesale) Ltd
"This Team Development Workshop was one of the best ones I have attended. It was interactive and very detailed.
It was awesome we were given resources we can use outside of the workshop. I would recommend this to other places of work. Thank you."
Hinepau Peka - Te Puni Kokiri
"Our facilitator was great in explaining the tools available to us and breaking our understanding down on each component.
Great handouts and great workshop activities."
"I can attest to the TMS team always being helpful and generous with their support so
I know where to go for further explanation should that need arise in the future."
"Ethan was a fantastic facilitator! He was animated, really kind, and made the content very easy to understand —
It's very clear he's passionate about TMP and man deserves a raise for putting up with our team.
Even though the day was jam-packed, I never felt rushed or overwhelmed with information.
I found the workshop really helpful and look forward to see more of the working styles of our organisation!"
"Ethan was excellent - we enjoyed the workshop a lot. He made it enjoyable and kept everyone engaged throughout.
As a team we are getting to know each other - this was a very useful day spent unpacking and getting to know the way we best work together as a team.
We also liked the hand-out given to each person with their results.
We spent the day after the workshop reflecting on information received and refining our team’s objectives etc for the year ahead."
"A very enjoyable and informative course. Our facilitator was personable and knew the content very well and
I really enjoyed learning how to engage with my colleagues better and I felt it was a great opportunity for team bonding.
I also gained some insights into my own working style, which was very helpful."
"It was great! Very easy to follow and well organised.
The process of booking in the course and finalising all the details was also very straight forward.
It was really interesting to learn about the TMP system and about my colleagues’ work styles and preferences.
Ethan was fantastic. Very friendly and welcoming. He kept the energy going throughout the whole session.
Overall, I thought the TMP Workshop was excellent. The team and I got a lot out of it.
It really helped us understand our own and each other’s working styles on a deeper level."
"The facilitator definitely knew what he was talking about. Very engaging with team members and the whole group.
Interesting insights of the "TMP Wheels" and how each team member fits into the team and how our team has its own, distinct personality and ways to work.
Great to determine where we are today and what we can be like in the future, including pointing out possible pitfalls.
Some amazing insights about our team and its members; i.e. personal traits and how they fit into the overall team dynamic."
"We had a fantastic facilitator who generated energy and a sense of openness amongst participants to engage in our individual and collective profiles.
Learning more about the complementary skills and ‘inclinations’ of my ELT colleagues. I also learnt how my colleagues perceive me."
"I've learnt a lot about my colleagues, the framework and results and how we can best utilise the information shared.
Ethan's facilitation style suits us well. He was down to earth but assertive enough to keep us all on track and on task. Great work Ethan!"

"I can't begin to tell you how this course has helped me, it currently has me thinking of a master plan so for that I say THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!"
Devyne Gilliam - Mainfreight Atlanta USA
"This was my third team management workshop – the others delivered by different companies – and this one was by far the most useful.
I particularly liked the presentation of the resources"
Jacinta Blank - Ministry of Education
"This was by far the best course I have attended and I would jump at the opportunity to do another one with this organisation.
I would recommend this to any person in any leadership or managerial role"
Vanessa Semmens - Mainfreight
"The learning experience was nothing like I thought it would be.
I've been on courses before but nothing like this where it has me wanting more and wanting to achieve.
It was everything and more anyone in my position needs to get out of a rut and get some hunger back in my role in order for myself and
my peers and branch to succeed"
Lisa Tagoai - Mainfreight
