Building Effective Teams

Your Path to a Thriving Organisation

At the Diversity Institute, we know that teams are most effective when they collaborate well, communicate openly, and view their differences as opportunities. That’s why our services focus on harnessing the strengths of diverse teams, building strong relationships, and resolving conflicts.

We partner with you to create clarity, focus and an environment for your people to thrive.

Consulting

Our holistic approach takes teams and their leaders to the next level and supports the implementation of practical solutions.

Workshops

Our online or in-person workshops give teams and their leaders the capability to build a high performing thrive culture.

Work can be tough. Leadership can be tough. What did work in the past may not work in future. How can I do the best for my team? We partner with you to get the right actions in place.

Strong relationships with colleagues, built on self-awareness and effective communication, are crucial for personal happiness, team success, and leveraging diverse backgrounds and personalities to enhance team performance.

When people with different personalities, goals, and needs come together, learning to resolve conflicts constructively helps reduce stress, frustration, and distractions from what truly matters.

Effective performance conversations, when clear, timely, and motivational, strengthen relationships and accountability, while formal improvement plans ensure necessary changes when desired results aren't achieved.

How We help

Every day, the people we work with are becoming more diverse, which means we all need new skills to collaborate effectively, build meaningful relationships, and resolve differences. At the Diversity Institute, we’re here to help you develop those skills. Our workshops and programs, grounded in extensive research, are designed to take your team to the next level. We help to get the best out of diversity to form effective teams.

What our clients say

Thanks so much for all your help with this programme and getting it up and running so quickly. I feel you really took the time to understand the business and ran with some key themes to deliver some tangible learnings to the team and the feedback has been great.
Rob Eden
Manager People & Capability, Mercy Radiology
Stefan facilitated an independent review of the “culture” of our organisation with an opportunity for staff to feedback, what in their view, constituted an “ideal” work environment. Stefan then worked alongside staff to scope up a set of values that would underpin the way that we conducted our business at Parentline; how we treat our clients and how the organisation treats our staff. The values were endorsed by the Board and are now enshrined in our Strategic Plan.
Cathy Holland
CEO, Parentline
Your help has been incredibly valuable Stefan. With your guidance and training we are able to translate our values and culture into everyday practice. It enables us to have honest and constructive discussions with staff as necessary.
Juanita Bennett
General Manager, Community Law
I wanted to say thank you Stefan for the two Leadership Workshops you ran in Auckland. I personally found it one of the most useful courses I have done professionally in a long time. The facilitation was great, and I think your approach and peaceful nature really helped me to absorb what you were presenting. I've been more inspired than usual to apply the practices and it is still coming up in conversation both in and out of work. I am truly very grateful.
