TUSC Brown Bag: Teamwork Through Tinkertoys

Please join the Towson University Staff Council (TUSC) in experiencing Dan Leonard?s team building exercise, “Teamwork Through Tinkertoys.” At this interactive brown bag, teams will build a Tinkertoy structure using specific guidelines. The catch is that each team has to construct their ?jaw-dropping? structure within a limited time! Participants will work together and use their combined organizational and creative skills to complete the project.

This hands-on exercise emphasizes the importance of quality planning, the value of effective communication, and the real benefits of working together. A collaborative approach is a big part of our quality improvement journey. Teamwork Through Tinkertoys allows us to practice and demonstrate collaboration and teamwork through a fun learning experience.

Dan Leonard is the Director of the President?s Leadership Institute, the Assistant to the President for Special Projects, and the University’s Fair Practices Officer.

Date: January 22, 2009
Time: noon ? 1 p.m.
