An expedition to your inner drives and needs<\/h3>\n

And in the words of Max Frisch:<\/p>\n

“Employees are wanted,<\/em>
\nbut people will come.”<\/em><\/p>\n

This simulation decodes what science calls intrinsic motivation. A term that is often used without really knowing how we can practically use the energy hidden behind it for ourselves and others.<\/p>\n

Appreciation is an indispensable building block for the sustained willingness to perform and the emotional attachment of people to a company and a team. Teams learn the languages of appreciation. But only when we know and speak the language of the recipient can appreciation given unfold its full power.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n <\/div>\n

Deeply rooted life interests (DELIs) and addressing them has been shown to have an extraordinarily positive impact on personal satisfaction and team success. Understanding of DELIs is further enhanced when contributions to team success are acknowledged in the right language and form.
\nThe team development activity “Deep Sea Expedition” was developed in cooperation with the best-selling author Holger Rathgeber (author of “The Penguin Principle” and “The Meerkat Principle”) and our team trainers.
\nDive into the depths with your team and increase:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Motivation and commitment: A deeply rooted life interest motivates in a sustainable and lasting way, increases commitment to work and utilizes previously unconscious abilities.<\/li>\n
  • Balance and satisfaction: A life interest helps to find a balance in life and to achieve a sense of satisfaction and contentment, which has a positive effect on work.<\/li>\n
  • Improving communication: by using the language of appreciation, a team can develop positive and supportive communication that helps build and strengthen relationships within the team.<\/li>\n
  • Creativity and innovation: deep interest can also be a source of creativity and innovation, as it can inspire employees and bring new ideas and perspectives.<\/li>\n
  • Networking: A deep interest can also lead to networking and collaboration with others who are also interested in what drives a leader forward.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

    Objective<\/h3>

    Participants become aware of their own motivators and learn about the intrinsic motivations of their colleagues. In the joint moderated reflection, a space of possibilities and opportunities is created from which very concrete changes for the daily work can be taken away. The languages of appreciation can be used in a targeted way.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. The emotional bond in the teams is significantly strengthened<\/li>\n
    2. A lasting motivation is achieved<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t

      Learning effects<\/h3>

      The participants develop an awareness and common understanding around the topics of inner motivators and appreciation. The participants can positively change their everyday work with their own motivators and those of their colleagues.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t

      Measurability<\/h3>

      We measure understanding of each other in terms of preferred languages of appreciation and motivating tasks. These values can be used in comparison with other teams worldwide or, if the measurement is repeated at a later date, to track the progress of your team.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t
