Team + Work = TEAMWORK
3/30/2020
“Teamwork” can’t exist unless you have a motivated “TEAM” and are willing to put in “WORK”. In this presentation, we will discuss how to facilitate a staff development session that demonstrates how important effective communication is in building a strong, cohesive and productive team that works together to reach common organizational goals. The best part is that you can do it with little to no money using supplies you probably already have in the library!
Communication is not easy…it takes WORK! A staff that communicates effectively understands that communication is affected by the varied personalities and temperaments of the individuals who make up the collective “team”. It is key that team members learn one another’s communication styles and, more importantly, develop strategies for constructively articulating individual wants and needs while considering the needs and wants of other team members, so that they can collaborate together to further the organization. For example, think of the library as a giant wheel, and the only way it can move forward is if all of the individual gears inside of that wheel—all staff members from all departments—work together.
In this webinar you will learn four different games/activities that you can do with your staff during a staff development session that demonstrate the importance of communicating clearly rather than assuming that others can read your mind:

Sarah Everly, Mobile Library Services Manager, Warren-Trumbull County Public Library System
Sarah's main focus is serving individuals who face barriers accessing traditional brick and mortar locations. She does so by providing bookmobile service and Library-by-Mail service as the Mobile Library Services manager at the Warren-Trumbull County Public Library in northeast Ohio.
As a former Peace Corps Volunteer, providing access to information and working collaboratively with others give her immense gratification. Everly has established two successful bi-weekly book clubs for and with adults with developmental disabilities and she has initiated a wonderfully successful (and fun!) partnership with the local state park (Mosquito Lake) to provide nature-centered programming paired with live animal demonstrations and a story time at the bookmobile. Everly continually seeks ways to expand bookmobile service and effectively utilize our time on the road.
