"We have turned to C. Michael Ferraro many times over the years to facilitate a wide variety of programs that promote individual and team growth. Most recently, we engaged Michael to facilitate the Five Behaviors program, and we were very pleased with the results. Michael was able to draw on his experience facilitating this program with other companies and apply his insights about our company culture to create a customized approach based on our specific needs. We noticed subtle changes in the way team members interacted with each other almost immediately, and over the course of the program we saw real improvement in the overall team dynamic. Our investment in the Five Behaviors program gave us the tools we need to maintain and improve our team interactions which in turn will drive team success and business growth."

Five Behaviors is an assessment-based learning experience that helps individuals and organizations reveal what it takes to build a truly cohesive and effective team in the most approachable, competent, and effective way possible.

This new product was created to harness the power of The Five Behaviors® across the entire organization. The Five Behaviors® Personal Development solution teaches individuals to become better teammates. The goal is to completely redefine teamwork and collaboration. Personal Development was designed specifically to work for individuals; participants do not all need to be part of the same team. Rather, participants can carry the takeaways of this program from one team to the next, enabling a culture of teamwork. Learners at all levels of an organization can benefit from this program and adopt its powerful principles, shape behaviors, and create a common language that empowers people to rewrite what it means to work together.

The Five Behaviors Team Development

This program is designed especially for intact teams and work groups. It's a powerful experience that assesses an intact team's approach to teamwork and helps team members better understand themselves and the personalities on their team so they can effectively achieve their goals. The result is a unique and impactful team development solution that empowers teams to rethink their approach to teamwork, shape new, more productive behaviors to increase productivity, and create a common language that completely redefines what it means to work together. When team members gain the interpersonal skills needed to understand how they and others contribute to their team's development and how their part can make or break the team and its dynamic, they can work and rise together.
