Magic of We - DVD

Best-Seller

This course is also available for online training, see details below.

In The Magic of We, you'll see a team of 25 Snapper employees gather in the main plant on a Saturday morning for a very different kind of meeting. Senior managers, engineers, suppliers, customer service and marketing are assigned one task: Put together 4 lawnmowers themselves.

It comes down to nuts and bolts - literally! As they work, these diverse teams realize that a universal bolt that was supposed to streamline production is causing more problems than it was supposed to solve. See how they use the 'magic of we' to find the solution.

The Magic of We is one story, shown five times with five different intros and closings, each addressing a different topic area: Leadership, Teamwork, Problem Solving, Lean Manufacturing, Communication.

Here is just a sample of the learning points covered:

  • Gain first hand knowledge and experience. Walk your "four corners". (Leadership)
  • Understand the team's mission and each individual's role. (Teamwork)
  • Step outside your day-to-day environment to change your perspective. (Problem Solving)
  • Help create a work environment that brings down barriers to talking, listening, and sharing. (Communication)
  • Cultivate a culture of "us vs. the problem," not "department vs. department." (Lean Manufacturing)

The Leader's Guide provides step-by-step instructions for introducing activities, leading discussions, and making transitions between the video, group discussions, and exercises. It includes directions for presenting the workshop materials, along with suggestions for preparation, timing, and follow-up activities.

Program Includes: DVD Or VHS Video, Leader's Guide (including reproducible participant handouts), PowerPoint CD-Rom, and 10 "Magic of We" Post-It Notes.

Invisible Man Meets the Mummy (Healthcare Version) - DVD

Learn how to unwrap healthcare employees from the red tape that has kept them from providing effective, efficient service throughout your organization in this entertaining video that presents a lighthearted look at the rights and wrongs of customer service. It shows that everyone has customers -- internal, external or both -- and there's no place to hide from them. Not even in red tape.

Yet without realizing it, many capable people let red tape cloud their vision of what customer service is about. To illustrate this point, we've cast the employee as an inflexible mummy wrapped in red tape. The customer is invisible because the mummy just can't see him. But only temporarily -- because the eight skills for good customer service are soon revealed. Viewers learn how to put the customer first, and are made aware that it's possible to tailor procedures to customer needs without breaking rules.

Participants will learn about:

  • Flexibility -- policies and procedures are no good if they alienate your customer and their needs
  • Planning -- creating and implementing a solid plan of action increases efficacy
  • Attitude -- it's not merely what is said, but how, that imparts critical messages to customers
  • Measurement -- tracking progress provides effective tools for change
Program Contents: DVD, Leader's Guide, and 1 Participant's Workbook
