Building Trust Workshop
A team development workshop focused on trust, accountability and working relationships
What is the Building Trust workshop?
The Building Trust Workshop is a facilitated team development workshop that helps teams strengthen trust by understanding how different Thinking and Behavioral preferences build or erode confidence over time.
Trust is not a soft concept. It directly impacts collaboration, accountability, engagement and performance. This workshop gives teams practical tools to intentionally build and sustain trust across diverse work styles.
Why trust matters
When trust breaks down:
- Communication becomes guarded
- Accountability weakens
- Conflict escalates
- Performance suffers
This workshop helps teams move beyond assumptions and address trust in a structured, strengths-based way.
Who is this workshop for?
This workshop is designed for:
• Intact teams and departments
• Team experiencing tension or misalignment
• Organizations seeking stronger collaboration and accountability
These workshops are built for teams that have already completed an introductory Emergenetics experience (such as Meeting of the Minds or Team Dynamics for Small Groups) and are ready to apply Emergenetics concepts in their day-to-day work.

- Understand how trust is built across different work styles
