Executive Fire Team

The Executive Fire Team programme teaches your team to work effectively in crisis situations.

1. Understand the individual's team strengths

A high performing team has a balance of different team roles. Using the Australian developed Team Management Profile, the members of your team learn about the strengths that lie in their different approaches to team tasks.

2. Learn from the professional firefighters

Firefighters know how to make a team work when the heat is on. Fires don't wait, and neither do business problems. Your team will learn to use the individual characteristics of its team members to resolve problems in a hands on, real time environment. Using the facilities of the NSW Fire Brigades, your team will participate in a series of team problem solving activities.

3. Discover the secrets of team communication

Different team members need information presented in different ways. Some will just want the bottom line. Others will need all of the information and time to consider it, before they can engage in the discussion. Learn what to do and say when needing to communicate with both the creative and the practical members of your team.

How is the workshop run?

The workshop has a combination of classroom theory and outdoor practical hands on exercises. Graham Nisbet, Master Trainer in Team Management, facilitates the workshop. Each participant completes a short pre-workshop questionnaire and receives an individual 28 page written report on their team style.

On the fire training ground, groups of 4-6 complete a series of team problem solving tasks. Full protective fire fighting gear is provided, and the exercises are conducted under the supervision of professional fire fighting instructors. Public workshops have a maximum of 12 participants. Tailored programmes can be organised for larger intact work or sporting teams.
