Team Building Is Vital


So, why team building? What makes me qualified to help you make your event more successful?  Great question. My answer would go something like this…

I’m on the phone every day with Meeting Planners and I hear the frustrations of working with larger committees, lack of clear takeaways and shrinking budgets. I hear how much in need your teams are of escaping their technology induced silos and reconnecting via face time with their colleagues. I understand that doing more with less is the norm, and this situation leads to more burnout and increased feelings of isolation in our workforces. With my background in sociology, event planning and the music industry…This is a unique opportunity to combine these passions into a program which allows us, working together, to enhance your overall team experience. Songwriting as team-building, is a mission for me. I believe with all my might… that team building should not be an ancillary function of conferences and meetings. Statistics show, that organizations too often “miss the bead” on assembling and retaining the right team. By not properly engaging their employees and figuring out ways to maximize the strengths of each individual hire, companies and organizations are costing themselves dearly whenever they have to re-hire and retrain.

* Team building increases productivity
* Team building improves efficiency
* Team building enhances employee retention rates
* Team building grows profitability

The notes in a chord of music, are one and the same as the members of your team. They either complement each other…or they detract from the “sound.” We’ll brainstorm on how to make your teams more successful and happier, and then we’ll write a song together about this crucial topic. We’ll collaborate on this song just like they do in Nashville..and as they once did in Tin Pan Alley.  Depending upon the size and needs of your group…we may decide to bring in one of my co-facilitators.  These are Award-Winning Hit Songwriters who have had songs recorded by the likes of Shania Twain…Collin Raye…Laura Branigan…Josh Groban..Melissa Manchester and Patty Loveless.  We will customize “our team” to make sure that your event is the ultimate success.

Wishing you harmony.

Jeff
