A program for
the individual, the team and the whole organization
You can help to build the kind of team that you need to flourish in your work and career – a team where you feel comfortable, supported and encouraged to succeed. You will learn dialogic skills that enhance your own work as well as improving the team. The program activities encourage individuals to speak up genuinely, and for everyone’s views to be openly received and considered. This is a great opportunity to have a voice, be seen, and influence how the team grows. You may see your colleagues in a new light, just as they may recognize you differently.
How is Dialogic Teamwork relevant to me?
Dialogic Teamwork encourages respect within the team, leading to trust and more thoughtful listening to what colleagues mean. This engenders a more aware and intelligent team. The exercises in the program explore the organizational context and that helps to clarify the team’s direction and purpose. The performance of the team is enhanced by reviewing habitual but unhelpful patterns of team behavior - and the necessary emphasis on delivery is enriched by a pragmatic enquiry into how familiar the team is with its clients and support services.
What difference will it make to the team?
The program has a sequence of Steps that take the form of short (7 mins) video clips of the experienced originators of the program setting an exercise. The whole team learns by doing the exercise together and reflecting on what happened (drawing on experience). This is very different from being taught an answer and trying to remember it (drawing on recall). Each Step takes less than an hour and can be placed at the start of a regular meeting. There are four Parts each with a different perspective – the organization, the individual, the team and the whole.
How does it work?
Different teams work at different speeds. This is a self-managed program, led by the Team Lead or a member of the team, with no external facilitator. The aim is to have those conversations that make a difference, and that is different for every team. Each Part has four or five Steps, and a short-term project team could do all four Parts of the program online or off-site in less than a week. A regular team may choose to take a few months, and by doing so would benefit from greater retention of the dialogic skills.
How long does it take?
The Team Lead, or whomever they choose, will have access to all the video clips for the five Steps in the Part One. You will take the Steps with your team by watching the video clip and doing the exercises. You too will have access to the video clips, and you can watch them afterwards in your own time if you want to deepen your understanding and learning. The authors of the program have a eleven-episode podcast called A New Kind of Dialogue: The Podcast, and there is a book with the same name by Peter Garrett.

Your team can be much more than the sum of the individual members, because people can do more together than they can do on their own. Teams grow if the individuals in the team are engaged, clear about their purpose, trust one another, and are open about their thinking and experience. This is more so when the goals of the individuals, the team and the larger organization are aligned with one another. This is what the Dialogic Teamwork program brings into your team, enhancing your ongoing work together and your overall productivity.
Why invest in your team?
Following a sequence of one-hour Steps, the whole team learns how to use dialogic skills to talk, think and work together more effectively. It is a self-managed developmental process. At the outset of any team meeting, the team watches a short video clip (7 mins) where the authors of the program introduce an interesting participatory exercise. The video is paused whilst you try the activity, reflect, and learn from the dynamics and experience. Further learning is provided by completing the video clip. The content is your own immediate working situation, not distant case studies.
How does it work?
This is a self-managed process, and you can progress at whatever pace best suits the development of the team. There is a sequence of four Parts, each with a distinctly different perspective. Each Part has either four or five one-hour Steps that can be taken in separate team meetings, or off-site in a single day. A short-term project team may choose to complete the program in less than a week. Other teams may take four to nine months, choosing over time to deliberately embed the skills and dialogic way of working.
How long does it take?
Facilitation is provided by short Video Clips watched by the whole team together. As Team Leader, you could choose to run the program Steps yourself. Alternatively, it is often preferable to choose another team member to be Program Lead - that reduces the impact of hierarchy on the team dynamics. The Program Lead prepares the meeting room and video, manages the process of each Step, and completes the feedback forms. There could be one Program Lead, two team members could share the role, or the role could rotate amongst the team members.
Who runs the program?
On registration, you will be allocated a Client Manager as your liaison. They will outline the whole process and send Video Clip Step 0 to guide you and your Program Lead on how you set up your program. Every Step has short and clear Video Clips and Step Notes. Should you prefer individualized support, or have a special need or interest, this is available online from our Thinking Partners at an additional cost. The Thinking Partners are familiar with the program, can provide appropriate guidance and are registered Accredited Professional Dialogue Practitioners.

This is what the Dialogic Teamwork program brings into your team, enhancing your ongoing work together and your overall productivity.
Why invest in your team?
Following a sequence of one-hour Steps, the whole team learns how to use dialogic skills to talk, think and work together more effectively. It is a self-managed developmental process. At the outset of any team meeting, the team watches a short video clip (7 mins) where the authors of the program introduce an interesting participatory exercise. The video is paused whilst you try the activity, reflect, and learn from the dynamics and experience. Further learning is provided by completing the video clip. The content is your own immediate working situation, not distant case studies.
How does it work?
This is a self-managed process, and you can progress at whatever pace best suits the development of the team. There is a sequence of four Parts, each with a distinctly different perspective. Each Part has either four or five one-hour Steps that can be taken in separate team meetings, or off-site in a single day. A short-term project team may choose to complete the program in less than a week. Other teams may take four to nine months, choosing over time to deliberately embed the skills and dialogic way of working.
How long does it take?
Facilitation is provided by short Video Clips watched by the whole team together. As Team Leader, you could choose to run the program Steps yourself. Alternatively, it is often preferable to choose another team member to be Program Lead - that reduces the impact of hierarchy on the team dynamics. The Program Lead prepares the meeting room and video, manages the process of each Step, and completes the feedback forms. There could be one Program Lead, two team members could share the role, or the role could rotate amongst the team members.
Who runs the program?
On registration, you will be allocated a Client Manager as your liaison. They will outline the whole process and send Video Clip Step 0 to guide you and your Program Lead on how you set up your program. Every Step has short and clear Video Clips and Step Notes. Should you prefer individualized support, or have a special need or interest, this is available online from our Thinking Partners at an additional cost. The Thinking Partners are familiar with the program, can provide appropriate guidance and are registered Accredited Professional Dialogue Practitioners.
What help or support is available?
You can help to build the kind of team that you need to flourish in your work and career – a team where you feel comfortable, supported and encouraged to succeed. You will learn dialogic skills that enhance your own work as well as improving the team. The program activities encourage individuals to speak up genuinely, and for everyone’s views to be openly received and considered. This is a great opportunity to have a voice, be seen, and influence how the team grows. You may see your colleagues in a new light, just as they may recognize you differently.
How is Dialogic Teamwork relevant to me?
Dialogic Teamwork encourages respect within the team, leading to trust and more thoughtful listening to what colleagues mean. This engenders a more aware and intelligent team. The exercises in the program explore the organizational context and that helps to clarify the team’s direction and purpose. The performance of the team is enhanced by reviewing habitual but unhelpful patterns of team behavior - and the necessary emphasis on delivery is enriched by a pragmatic enquiry into how familiar the team is with its clients and support services.
What difference will it make to the team?
The program has a sequence of Steps that take the form of short (7 mins) video clips of the experienced originators of the program setting an exercise. The whole team learns by doing the exercise together and reflecting on what happened (drawing on experience). This is very different from being taught an answer and trying to remember it (drawing on recall). Each Step takes less than an hour and can be placed at the start of a regular meeting. There are four Parts each with a different perspective – the organization, the individual, the team and the whole.
How does it work?
Different teams work at different speeds. This is a self-managed program, led by the Team Lead or a member of the team, with no external facilitator. The aim is to have those conversations that make a difference, and that is different for every team. Each Part has four or five Steps, and a short-term project team could do all four Parts of the program online or off-site in less than a week. A regular team may choose to take a few months, and by doing so would benefit from greater retention of the dialogic skills.
How long does it take?
The Team Lead, or whomever they choose, will have access to all the video clips for the five Steps in the Part One. You will take the Steps with your team by watching the video clip and doing the exercises. You too will have access to the video clips, and you can watch them afterwards in your own time if you want to deepen your understanding and learning. The authors of the program have a eleven-episode podcast called A New Kind of Dialogue: The Podcast, and there is a book with the same name by Peter Garrett.

Your team can be much more than the sum of the individual members, because people can do more together than they can do on their own. Teams grow if the individuals in the team are engaged, clear about their purpose, trust one another, and are open about their thinking and experience. This is more so when the goals of the individuals, the team and the larger organization are aligned with one another.
