New systems, organizational changes and productivity demands are realities in today's workplace. Positive communication is vital to effectively meet these challenges. Appropriate for individuals at any level of an organization, the Communications Derailed Game tackles three typical communication challenges:

• Communication within a team
• Communication between teams
• Communication during organizational stress

Three comprehensive, self-contained modules provide the necessary framework to conduct independent training workshops or a series of sessions.

Module 1: Excellent for general team communication skill-building. Use with new teams to prepare them for challenges they may face, or with existing teams to expose and identify current communication problems.

Module 2: Perfect for organizations that require cross-team or cross-department work.

Model 3: Valuable for organizations dealing with transition. This material is also beneficial for fast-moving organizations that function under continual time pressure.

Theory & Development:

An organization's successes and setbacks have a direct correlation to communication. Basic interpersonal communication skills, such as how to listen, ask questions and give feedback, are essential. This game will help you identify the communication problems that exist, as well as the cause of the difficulties, and show you how to remove the obstructions and improve the flow of information.

How it works:

Working as employees of a toy manufacturing company, teams are charged with building new prototypes using fun, colorful parts. But the hands-on tasks become difficult when they are presented with obstacles that challeng their communication skills. Through the experience of working together and with the help of the facilitator, participants learn how to overcome these problems to improve their performance through effective communication.
