  • Change starts with me – I will stop pointing to others to make the situation better.

  • There are a lot of great people in this room (the work group) and if I need something I can ask for it.

  • Accept my own and others shortcomings – I can only change myself .

  • This day afforded an opportunity for open communication and discussion among group members.

  • We improved team relationships, learned to respect each other’s ideas and developed a plan for further improving teamwork and accomplishing our mission and values .

  • Group members were much more relaxed with each other at end of the day than at the beginning.

  • The time spent together enhanced team membership and the participation of each person as an active, influential team member.

  • The most valuable part of the day for me was…hearing each team member’s thoughts/views on how we all interact as a group.

  • We are much clearer about division goals and more cohesive as a group.

  • Better communication, shared concerns.

  • We are highly motivated to move in new directions.
