Real corporate team-building in South Africa is crucial for medium to long term for success... Not group-entertainment, but real, long lasting, team-building and trust building that impacts people head, heart and Souls as a process.

With all of the challenges we have with increased competition, cultural challenges, BEE, racial, gender and generational differences here in South Africa, it's clear that strong, true, trusting, powerful, honest team engagement are necessary for companies to maximise their human potential and have powerful effective teams.

LifeMasters does not usually deliver purely "group entertainment, like 4x4, races, building-ropes etc... At LifeMasters we treat corporate team-building like it deserves to be approached - thoroughly, authentically, engaging and transformationally.

Inspiration and high-voltage corporate team-building, unlike motivational stuff, can outlast almost all other team building approaches. LifeMasters Team-building outlasts everything usually because we address the whole person, and the team's invisible team dynamics - on a Head, Heart and Soul basis. We address the cause and not the symptoms.

Some of our approaches incorporated in our real team building in South Africa, Gauteng, Johannesburg are...

• Appreciative Inquiry Process

• Team-building through True Trust-Building

• Vision Communication - Destiny Cause & Calling

• Strategic exploration - Build an on purpose group

• Competitive advantage 

• Inspiration T.E.A.M.

• Creative Destruction

• Ideal Scenario Projection

• C.A.S.T.L.E. Principles

Problem: The ever-changing arena of business has become a highly competitive environment, with a greater focus on performance, profits, market share and positive returns for the shareholders. a purely money focus.

The price of failure is extreme, the pressure intense and the margins for mistakes are razor thin. Unless we creatively reinvent ourselves, our business, our offerings and move with the the new Emotional Economy trends, we will become extinct.

Competition abounds, and will continue to grow even more aggressive into the 21^St century.  What can you do to ensure survival - Today and Tomorrow?

Solution: Life Masters' "Soul-Purpose" Appreciative Inquiry Corporate Team building process will guide your future strategies, actions and growth beyond survival, by harvesting the inherent knowledge, skills, energy, passion, talent, and relationship equity that you have been laying dormant and un-harvested within your team.

Resources: You have almost all resources needed within your teams. They are your staff and their personal attitudes, beliefs, competencies, resilience awareness and relationship equity.

For your company or team to change – you and your staff must change– thoughts, beliefs, values, attitudes expectations, judgments and actions.

Strategy: A period / weekend away with management and staff teams (Or Client teams), where you will design a "Killer Company with Soul", with a higher purpose than just money.

You will go through a powerful team building process that will enable you to design the kind of company that would surpass your existing structures and competitors and make a positive difference in the world.

You will  have the opportunity to create the ideal company and powerful teams, to take you into the 21^St century with passion, talent, engagement and commitment.
