Rowing is the ultimate team sport.
No one person can make the boat move. 

This first step in The Blended Solution involves live seminar/experiential based learning. Catalyst and Capstone programs are templates that can be customized by the client and Team Concepts Inc. to suit specific training needs.
 

Rowing, the ultimate team sport, is the most powerful Catalyst Program that Team Concepts offers.  Your team will be taking part in its own Regatta - including training, a race, and medal ceremony - which will become a model for the concepts to be addressed in the seminars. This approach enhances understanding and retention of those concepts, while creating a vigorous and novel learning environment.  Included in the full-day program are team shirts, hats (with company logo), meeting room within Boathouse facility, snacks and beverages: water and juices, fruit, snack bars, other light snacks, Continental breakfast, boxed lunch.  All team members will receive medals for the day’s achievement.
 

Team Concepts has assembled an accomplished staff of individuals dedicated to the Sport of Rowing. Dan Lyons, the company president is a member of the US Rowing Hall of Fame, as is Carol Bower and Ted Nash, two Team Concepts Associates. Each has represented the US in Olympic competition, and, together, they have amassed dozens of championships, including Olympic, World, and Pan Am Gold Medal victories.

The act of rowing contains many lessons in teamwork and team building that is directly relevant to the real work place.
