Team workshops
Facilitated workshops that help teams work better together as companies grow and change.
These sessions create shared understanding, clearer communication, and practical alignment so teams can move forward with less friction and stronger performance.
Support for teams navigating growth, change, and complexity
Strong teamwork doesn’t happen by accident, especially in growing organizations. As roles expand and pressure increases, teams need shared language, clearer expectations, and practical ways to navigate differences in how people think, decide, and lead.
I design and facilitate strengths-based workshops that help teams understand how they work best together and apply that insight directly to their day-to-day work.
These workshops are especially useful when:
Organizations bring me in when teams are:
→ Growing quickly and starting to see friction
→ Navigating change, re-orgs, or new leadership
→ Struggling with decision-making, ownership, or communication
→ Working hard but progress is still slow or misaligned
→ Want to leverage strengths for optimal teamwork and performance
→ Looking for a human, practical alternative to one-size-fits-all frameworks
If your team is already feeling the strain of growth, this work helps address it early, before it becomes costly.
What teams gain from this work
These workshops are designed to create real shifts teams can feel immediately.
Teams walk away with:
→ Clearer understanding of how each person contributes best
→ Stronger communication and fewer assumptions
→ Better decision-making and shared ownership
→ Reduced friction across roles and functions
→ More trust and confidence in how they work together under pressure
The result is a team that’s aligned, capable, and better equipped to navigate growth together.
How the workshops work
Workshops are thoughtfully designed and facilitated to meet teams where they are. Sessions may be half-day or full-day, virtual or in person, depending on your needs.
My facilitation style is calm, inclusive, and practical. I create space for honest conversation while keeping the focus on what will actually help the team work better together moving forward.
Workshops typically include:
→ Strengths-based insight using CliftonStrengths and Human Design
→ Practical frameworks teams can apply immediately
→ Guided conversation around real work challenges
→ Space to reflect, align, and build shared understanding
→ Clear takeaways that support better collaboration after the session
Workshops can be delivered virtually or in person and range from focused half-day workshops to longer engagements.

Working with Amber was transformative for our organization. She introduced us to the CliftonStrengths framework, which became a catalyst for building confidence and deeper connection across our teams.
Through her thoughtful facilitation, we learned to recognize and lean into each other’s strengths—unlocking new levels of collaboration and trust. As a leader, I found this work invaluable; it offered a practical blueprint for understanding my team and inspired more meaningful feedback conversations.
I highly recommend Amber to any organization looking to cultivate stronger, more self-aware teams through intentional, strengths-based development.
A strengths-based approach to teamwork
Every team is made up of people who think, decide, and lead differently. When those differences aren’t understood, they create friction. When they are understood, they become a strength.
This work helps teams:
→ Understand how each person is naturally wired to contribute
→ Reduce unnecessary tension caused by misinterpretation
→ Build ways of working that leverage differences instead of forcing sameness which can be draining and counter productive
