Team Forward: Problem-Solving Workshop Where Your Team Names the Real Barriers
Stop walking on eggshells. Improve communication skills using real materials & imaginative processes to build toward more innovative collaboration.
Team Forward is the Learn2 problem-solving workshop where your team names the barriers, finds the root causes, and commits to the fix together. Awarded Best Internal Training Program at the Canadian Awards for Training Excellence. The same participant-driven method shaped the Canadian Olympic Committee's planning foundation. Unresolved performance gaps compound. Meetings go in circles. Decisions stall. Team Forward breaks the pattern in one immersive session. Your team surfaces what they have been unable to say, works the causal chain out loud, and leaves with specific owned commitments, each tied to a name and a date. Team-performance stack: Canadian Olympic - 14 Gold Medals proof + 10 offsite moves that work. Organizations with unresolved gaps in performance, culture, processes, or communication are often held back, leaving teams unable to realize their full potential. This is why companies are investing in immersive problem solving workshops. Awarded Best Internal Training Program Canadian Awards for Training Excellence, Team Forward engages your team to identify root causes by working through our problem-solving process. Then your team builds the implementation plan to solve the problems. 100% of Team Forward participants would recommend this program to a friend or colleague.
How This Problem Solving Workshop Works
In Team Forward, your team will first identify sources of conflict and organizational opportunity. Your team will then work together to plan, construct, and integrate sections of a multi-part bridge using real building materials to allow an egg to roll safely across a perilous 16-foot gap. To do this successfully, teams will need to brainstorm a solution and use problem solving skills to achieve the goal.
Our program framework gets tailored to fit the unique needs of your team. This team building workshop is ideal for teams to solve the strategic gaps they face at work and generate innovative solutions toward One Direction as a team. With many potential solutions, teams will apply critical thinking, creativity, teamwork, and use problem-solving tools that will enable the team to track progress and achieve impressive results. This problem-solving process can then be used in the workplace, propelling teams forward and offering continuous improvement quarter by quarter.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is Team Forward?
- Team Forward is the Learn2 problem-solving workshop for a whole team at once. Your team names the barrier out loud, traces it to a root cause, and commits to the fix. Every commitment leaves the room with a name and a date on it.
- How is this different from other problem solving workshops?
- Most problem solving workshops hand your team a framework and a flip chart. Team Forward is participant-driven. Your people bring the real gap, do the thinking themselves, and build the plan they will actually run. That is why the fix survives the drive home.
- What actually happens in the room?
- Your team first surfaces the sources of conflict and the real opportunities. Then they plan, build, and connect a multi-part bridge from real materials, so an egg can roll safely across a 16-foot gap. The build makes the team's habits visible while everyone can still see them.
- Who is Team Forward for?
- Intact teams and cross-functional groups carrying an unresolved gap in performance, culture, process, or communication. It fits the team where meetings go in circles and decisions stall, and nobody has said the real thing yet.
- How long does it run, and can you tailor it to us?
- It runs as one immersive session, and the framework gets shaped to your team's actual gap before the day. Bring us the barrier your team keeps circling and we design around it.
- What do we leave with?
- A named barrier, its root cause, and an implementation plan your team wrote. Each commitment carries an owner and a date. The same problem-solving process then travels back to work, so your team can use it again next quarter without us.
