DEVELOPING INSIGHT. STRENGTHENING CONNECTION. ELEVATING TEAMS.

Start with the change you want to see.

Perhaps your team is growing, managers need support, or colleagues are working hard but struggling to work together. A focused development session gives people time to examine their approach, practise new skills and agree useful next steps.

EXPLORE YOUR OPTIONS

Choose a focus. We will help shape the approach.

You can start with a workplace outcome or an established framework. The right choice depends on the team, its existing experience and what people need to do differently.

UNDERSTAND PREFERENCES

MBTI workshops

Explore personality preferences: how people take in information, make decisions and approach the world. Connect those insights to communication and workplace relationships.

Useful when: different approaches are being misunderstood or your team wants greater self-awareness.

Explore MBTI workshops

ADAPT YOUR COMMUNICATION

DiSC workshops

Explore behavioural styles and how they can influence everyday interactions. Practise adapting the way colleagues communicate, give feedback and work together.

Useful when: your team needs a practical shared language for discussing behaviour and communication.

FROM YOUR BRIEF TO THE WORKPLACE

A clear purpose at every stage.

01 / UNDERSTAND

Define the need.

Discuss who is involved, what is happening at work and what a useful outcome would look like. Identify any participation or accessibility requirements.

02 / DESIGN

Agree the approach.

Confirm the workshop focus, facilitator, preparation and format. Any assessments, reports or additional support are specified in the proposal.

03 / FACILITATE

Explore and practise.

Connect relevant concepts with discussion, workplace examples and purposeful exercises. Make time to reflect on what the team notices.

04 / APPLY

Identify next steps.

Translate the session into practical actions or shared commitments. Discuss follow-up and evaluation during planning if these are required.

Make success specific. A clearer handover process, more constructive feedback or agreed meeting behaviours are useful objectives to discuss. Longer-term progress depends on how learning is supported and applied back at work.

PRACTICAL LEARNING, IN A SUITABLE SETTING

At your workplace, conference or off-site.

Discuss team development on the Gold Coast, in Brisbane, Sydney, the Sunshine Coast, Hunter Valley or Canberra, or enquire about another location. Your proposal confirms facilitator availability, venue requirements and travel arrangements.

Experiential elements can include facilitated team initiatives, collaborative problem-solving and reflective formats such as Team Journey. The activity serves the learning objective, with time for discussion and practical application.

For an event centred on celebration or a shared social experience, explore Thrill’s team-building activities. A development workshop and a shared experience can also be combined when the brief allows.

BEFORE YOU PLAN

Your questions, answered.

What is the difference between team building and team development?

Team building often centres on a shared experience and connection. Team development focuses more deliberately on how people work together, with preparation, facilitated reflection and practical workplace application. Thrill helps match the level of facilitation to your objectives.

How do we choose between MBTI, DiSC and TMS?

MBTI explores personality preferences, DiSC explores behavioural styles, and TMS focuses on work preferences and team contributions. Start with the challenge you want to address, then discuss the most suitable approach with Thrill. Profiles support development conversations; they should not define a person’s capabilities.

Does every workshop include an assessment?

No. A communication, leadership or connection workshop may be suitable without profiling. If an assessment is recommended, the proposal confirms the tool, reports, preparation and feedback arrangements.

How long should we allow?

The time required depends on your objectives, team size, preparation and the depth of discussion. Tell us your available window, whether a conference session or a dedicated development day, so we can recommend a realistic scope.

Can you help with conflict, trust or psychological safety?

A carefully scoped workshop can support constructive communication, shared expectations and respectful participation. Explain the context before booking so suitability can be assessed. Serious complaints or entrenched disputes may require specialist support beyond a team workshop.

Can you work with remote or hybrid teams?

Discuss your participants’ locations, technology and preferred format with Thrill. Suitability for online or hybrid delivery, including any assessment process, is confirmed for the specific program.

What should we include in our enquiry?

Your organisation, team size, preferred dates, location, available time and the main outcomes you want. You do not need a finished brief. Keep sensitive personal employee details out of the initial web enquiry.

LET’S TALK ABOUT YOUR TEAM
