ACA recognises the importance of team wellbeing and recently held their second insightful session with Gemma Wardell from Human Brilliance.
Following the first session in January, where the team explored their primary drivers (motivations based on their personalities affecting behaviour and decision-making), the second session focused on thinking preferences and communication styles. This session aimed to enhance team well-being and improve interpersonal communication.

Thinking preferences refer to the ways we prefer to process information and make decisions, which can range from logical and analytical thinking to intuitive and creative thinking. Understanding these preferences is crucial for effective team communication and collaboration. By becoming aware of individual thinking preferences, the ACA team could identify their strengths and potential weaknesses, marking the first step towards personal growth and effective teamwork.
The team learnt that adapting their communication styles can reduce misunderstandings and miscommunications, helping them to appreciate different perspectives and foster a more inclusive work environment. Having diverse thinking preferences in the ACA team leads to more innovative solutions, and when team members feel safe to express their unique perspectives, it enhances creativity and collaborative problem-solving.

In conclusion, the session underscored the importance of understanding thinking preferences in creating a thriving work environment.
By embracing these concepts, the ACA team can improve their interpersonal skills, boost team well-being and achieve greater success.
When team members feel understood and valued, it cultivates a positive organizational culture.
