Learn how to describe the different members of a team according to their working styles, and where you fit in.

Who? This class is for Upper-Intermediate members. We all have to work as part of a team – whether this is as part of a one-off project, or more long-term working relationships. Do you know your role in a team? How does your role change according to the task and the team’s make-up? What binds the successful team together in spite of personality problems and conflicts? Andrew Carnegie says teamwork is “the fuel that allows common people to attain uncommon results”. If you want to be an uncommon person achieving above and beyond what you’re capable of by yourself, then this is the class for you!

What? In this class, we’ll start by looking at your individual working style by taking a personality test to determine which of four categories you fit in to. Next, we’ll decide what characteristics make up the most successful teams. Finally, we’ll take a look at a shortlist of candidates for a new TV show, and how we can take our knowledge of working styles to evaluate their potential for success (or failure!). Book Now»
