Teamwork: InterPlay Style
InterPlay is a vibrant, growing community of people who are interested in living a more fulfilling, more creative, more connected life. What would happen if the InterPlay approach was applied in an organizational setting? InterPlay co-founders Phil Porter and Cynthia Winton-Henry have started asking that same question.
A powerful new one day workshop taking place in Oakland, CA called “Teamwork and Beyond” is founded on the idea that most companies, organizations, and corporations are run like machines with easily replaceable parts. If one person quits, just replace them with another person who has similar skills and qualifications. Teamwork and Beyond sees the flaws in this approach to organizational leadership. People are not machines. Instead of seeing a group of people as a machine, see it as a body. A body that hurts and heals, learns and grows, adapts and changes. A body that requires rest and care, tenderness and nourishment as well as discipline and expectation.
I attended Teamwork and Beyond this fall and it really got me thinking deeply about how professionals connect and the limitations of that connection in different environments. The structures of our groups should reflect the values and needs of the individuals within that group. I especially appreciated this workshop for bringing me together with professionals who are seeking new ways to lead.
If your organization could use more affirmation, decreased stress and healthier interaction, Teamwork and Beyond could be helpful. For more information, visit http://interplay.org/features/beyond-teamwork/TeamworkAndBeyond.htm.
