Leadership Development Program

Our experiential learning methodology adopted for the ‘Leadership Development Programme’ is suitable for mid- to senior-level position leaders and is a live facilitator-led programme. Although the programme we design is completely customised based on the desired outcomes and competencies, it usually includes intensive, personalised assessments, innovative exercises, peer feedback, and leadership coaching to help reinforce learning and transformation. Our leadership development programme builds the skills and confidence that leaders and managers need to build commitment and translate strategy into effective action. Get in touch with our experts to understand and explore the methodology adopted and the longevity and effectiveness of the offerings.

Jigsaw Discover Tool

The Jigsaw Discovery Tool is all about developing people to grow the success of organisations. It provides strategic solutions that will make a difference to individuals, teams, and organisations. The tool is based on the very latest evidenced research in neuroscience, neuroleadership, positive psychology, and workplace practises and, as such, is at the cutting edge of human performance.

The Jigsaw Transformation Model is a step-by-step approach to achieving strategic and cultural transformation. It requires commitment but is experiential and insightful, creating ‘aha’ moments to drive positive behavioural change that will make a difference to any bottom line.
What makes the Jigsaw Discovery Tool unique amongst so many profiling tools based on the same theories.
It is tactile, experiential, interactive, and, most importantly, it uses memorable and colourful characters to help learners identify their personal preferences. Based on the latest evidence in neuroscience, the Jigsaw Discovery Tool challenges the “cradle-to-grave” approach taken by many similar tools and acknowledges the plasticity of the brain. Unlike traditional profiling tools, there are no questionnaires forcing people into either-or choices.
The Jigsaw Discovery Tool recognises that people can and do exhibit opposite behaviours; for example, the way in which people behave at home is often very different from the way they behave at work.
Jigsaw Discovery Tool workshops are a dynamic mix of activities, discussions, and personal reflection. During workshops, you will be guided through the Jigsaw Discovery Experience by expert facilitators. See how you can deliver effective experiential learning in a number of areas, such as leadership, change management, communication, and team building. Explore the underpinning neuroscience.

Team Building & Bonding

Team Pepbox believes that ‘a team’s strength lies inside its members, and a member’s strength lies within the team’ They are an inseparable part of any organization that serve as a backbone for its growth and success. To improve the employee productivity and foster an efficient work culture, an organization invests resources in building its teams. Team Building is not to be looked at a one time experience, however its a continuous process that needs attention from time to time. This approach can guarantee any Team Building plan’s ROI. An appropriately designed Team Building Plan keeping all stakeholders in mind can do wonders for an organisation. Pepbox has designed and delivered a number of such Team Building programs to foster certain competencies and foster bonding among employees. Paving the way for effective and improved communications, better relationships, and eventually increased productivity.

Collaboration

“The best of collaborations can create something BIGGER and BETTER than the sum of what each person can create on his own” This statement, as we know, is the crux of growth and success for any organisation. However, collaboration within the team, among different distributed teams and across the hierarchy of the organisation structure is often a challenge. Ideas and processes grow smooth and better when transplanted into another mind than the one where they spring up. At Pepbox, we try and accurately captures the essence of collaborative work that is needed within a team, wherein ideas and concepts flow from one person to another in the team, and the team works together to achieve the desired results. Creating a paradigm shift in the thought process is the key, which is evident in our Experiential Learning Programs. The design and facilitation of our Collaboration based Experiential Learning Programs play an important part in instilling the core principles of Collaboration viz. recognition and acceptance for the need of partnership, developing clarity and realism of purpose, ensuring commitment and ownership, developing and maintaining trust, adapting and embracing changes etc. Get in touch with our team to know more about the case studies and programs based on collaborative approach that we have conduct for our clients.

Ice Breaking

The best ice breakers have the power to strengthen co-worker bonds, stimulate better brainstorming sessions, and create an atmosphere of inclusivity. To get the most value out of your team bonding moments, we’ve compiled a list of the best ice breaker activities. Pepbox believes that generating a great laugh is a best ice breaker! Be it mid-way through a serious conference or a warm up before any engagement session. Consider using an ice breaker when 1. Participants come from different backgrounds, 2. People need to bond quickly so as to work towards a common goal, 3. Your team is newly formed, 4. The topics you are discussing are new or unfamiliar to many people involved, 5. As facilitators when we need to get to know participants and have them know you better.

Fun Recreation

Its rightly said that All work and no play doesn’t just make Jill and Jack dull, it kills the potential of discovery, mastery, and openness to change and flexibility as it hinders innovation and invention. Pepbox truly believes in this and encourages corporates and institutes to make time for fun and recreation for its employees. By keeping fun and recreation at the core we have designed our activities that foster bonding and positive relationships among peers, which will eventually improve a company’s productivity and creativity potential.

Design Thinking Innovation

The need to constantly be in an innovation mode is the need of the hour. And with that comes the need for unconventional thinking, the need for bringing in creativity to shape different perspectives and hence design thinking comes out as the best option. As organizations world-over are embarking on their transformation journeys, they rightly realize that the new, i.e., a transformed organization’s structures and processes will successfully deliver only with a deep understanding of the stakeholders- the employees, customers and partners, needs, expectations, and aspirations are addressed, therefore, making the concept of design thinking ever more interesting for leaders. Pepbox has kept this idea of Design thinking at its core and we thrive to incorporate such outcomes in our Experiential Learning Programs. Get in touch with our team to know more about the case studies and programs based on design and innovation approach that we have conduct for our clients.

Leadership Skills

The ability to motivate and drive the team to attain specific outcomes is a part of efficient leadership. A leader’s responsibility is to encourage the team and give them a feeling of direction to attain a defined goal. A team leader possesses a variety of competencies and sub-competencies . However, these qualities can surely be developed through guidance and a variety of learning methodologies. One of them being the Experiential learning way. Wherein we create gamifies immersive learning experiences for teams. Pepbox provides a number of activities that can serve as an excellent catalysts of developing teamwork and leadership skills.

Trust Building

Having trust and integrity between employees is not only good but crucial. Employees are far more willing to help out when they know that their teammate has their back and they can rely on them. Building this trust entails working together, vowing to be fair, striking a balance between aggressiveness and collaboration, handling arguments, and taking responsibility for both triumphs and failures. A variety of Pepbox’s trust-building exercises, such as Blind Caterpillar, Landmines, Plank Roller Challenge, etc., enable the aforesaid in order to foster participant trust, which improves the workplace atmosphere.

Effective Communication

For Effective communication to take place, several hindrances ranging from language barriers, means of communication, too many transits and diverse mind sets, lack of Feedback mechanism etc. Needs to addressed. When communication is the key to collaboration and team synergy, these hindrances must be resolved through effective methods taking consistent efforts. One such method is gamified experiential learning whereby the employees through customised activities from Pepbox that involve fun and play, and get the opportunity to resolve such communication hindrances thus applying the same principles to their workplace. These modules give them a real feel of how the communication rhythm such ideally be where their habits are replaced by purpose and effectiveness is above efficiency.

Team Synergy

Well said by Chris Bradford that “Only by binding together as a single force will we remain strong and unconquerable”. We see that most of the organisations have Being ONE / standing UNITED / Team Synergy as one of their core corporate values. However, executing this in an actual working environment is a challenge faced by many businesses. Pepbox has activities that underpin the 3 steps of team synergy viz. Diversity, Creativity and Focus so that through activities, every employee understands goal achievement by contributing positively through the process while keeping the end goal in sight.

Mutual Respect Empathy

At workplaces, empathy means deep respect for co-workers and showing that you care, sometimes even in action as opposed to just going by rules and regulations. But for employees to be empathetic towards each other requires an effort from the leadership team as well. It’s the leadership style and attitude that the employees imbibe –mainly listening, open mindedness and understanding the challenges of their peers. With our highly experienced Facilitators and diligently designed experiential learning programs, Pepbox makes sure that with the working styles, employees understand the value of empathy and also understand why empathy is so important for them to build better relationships. We follow a process of understanding why mutual respect is a concern and takes an approach accordingly. Because we believe “Nobody cares how much you know until they know how much you care”

Effective Project Resource Management

Many a times the core principles of project management such as planning, co-ordination and execution is better understood through experiential learning than classroom training. Pepbox has a range of activities for effective project management that cover not also the three above mentioned principles but also other aspects of project management. We design and deliver customised programs based on industry verticals, specific project management objectives and your business needs. Making the most out of the available resources is what drives efficiency, be it time, material, manpower or capital etc. There are range of activities from Pepbox that reflect the same.

Strategic Thinking

Strategic thinking is not a standalone competency, but there are several skills that holds strategic thinking viz. understanding one’s strengths and areas of improvement, proper listening, asking appropriate questions, observation and so many more. Classroom training approach can sometimes may or may now fully help in instil strategic thinking, however that’s where experiential learning comes to play its part. All employees are strategic thinkers in a way but they need opportunities and activities that join the dots in the brains to think in a goal-oriented manner while considering the surrounding factors and listening to each team member. Contact Pepbox to support you for your objective of strategic thinking.

Risk Management

Risks are omnipresent. Prioritization and teamwork are what minimize these risks and determine the amount of success. In order to manage risks, a team needs to be able to identify, assess and control them quickly and save the organization’s resources. Pepbox has activities that help your teams to understand risks better and find solutions in the given time and resources.

Embracing Change Adaptation

Most of the times employees find it challenging to adapt to any organisational, structural or leadership changes in their organisation. The level of Tolerance to any of these change is what matters. We support Businesses with certain solutions that make the employees understand the aspects of change so that adaptation becomes easier. Having facilitated change management programs for businesses we have dealt with it effectively to try and create a positive work environment. Our approach to such objective is through experiential learning and willingness of employees play an important part in this approach. Co-creating such learning environment and taking equal measures so that employees understand the message but in a pragmatic and constructive way.
