I have been using the Workplace Communication cards for team meetings, one on ones, and to improve my own communication. They have presented topics from a different perspective at times, which disarms people and allows true conversation to take place yeilding productive changes and great results
Amazing tool to foster growth and communication within myself and my team!
I am excited to work through the cards as I build better relationships with my team. I believe this will really help me be a stronger leader.
I feel the unstuck box help guide a more purposeful conversation. I use the cards both for inspiration while planning a conversation and I lay out the cards that I feel must be used, so I remember them. It has for sure up-leveled the conversations
Working in the communications team, our charge is in part to help our team learn to communicate better. These cards have already helped my team start to build better communication practices with each other, and ultimately with the organization. Cannot recommend enough!
I hold 1:1 meetings for over 30 staff. I was in need of some new prompts/topics to use, and this box did not disappoint. I have selected the ones I will start using right away and look forward to the dialog it will generate!
I was stuck on what to give people for Christmas this year. The Unstuck Box was the answer!
Loved this for an offsite with my company's leadership team. During dinner, we each drew cards and then traded the card with another person we wanted the answer from. Felt very easy, enlightening and so much fun.
This box has helped me come up with ways to motivate my team and myself to be more productive at work. It has also helped me think a little differently outside of work and help me accomplish more.
During our yearly employee evaluations, we have been using these questions to enhance the questions they already answer. Ironically, the questions they randomly choose have been perfect for their situation.
Performance improvement discussions can be difficult at times. The Unstuck Performance improvement box definitely helps me better navigate through potentially volatile conversations with my staff.
I am a leader in a hospital emergency department. The One to Ones are a very useful tool in helping me to build trust and cohesiveness with my nursing staff in a fast-paced stressful environment.
These cards are a great resource for managers who struggle to have meaningful one-on-one meetings with their direct reports. My client is already using them to enhance relationships with his team and connect on a deeper level.
What a great asset! I’m i am instructional designer who supports leadership development at a large engineering firm. These cards are exactly what I need to hello super new leaders in developing a strong practice with they’re teams.
I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to use the tools in the box. There is an index with topic summaries so you can quickly see which might be the best ones to target for what you need in the moment. In particular I liked the reminders of pitfalls in logic and decision making so it’s top of mind what to watch out for.
As a leader in Student Affairs in the Post-Secondary Education context, I’m always looking for ways to strengthen communication and foster stronger connections within my team. “The Unstuck Box: One to Ones” has been an invaluable tool for our regular meetings. The cards provided a refreshing way to deepen our conversations and build stronger rapport. Not only has it helped spark meaningful discussions, but it also served as a fun icebreaker, especially in the early stages of team-building with new staff. It’s a simple, yet effective way to keep our meetings engaging and ensure that every voice is heard. Highly recommend for any team looking to enhance communication and collaboration.
I gave it as a gift to my direct report who also manages a team. She was so excited to look through all the categories and was impressed by the thoughtful prompts! I also have one and am excited to use it with her! We can’t wait to get the one for large teams!!
I am so happy I ordered these boxes. They are great and help me so much with my team and being a better leader. I love the ideas and suggestions to try new things. My favorite box right now is the One to Ones. So many great questions to get unstuck from asking the same thing over and over.
This is a wonderful tool for building a stronger team! Thank you for this valuable resource!
I have only started to use the cards but used ice breakers from the Team Building box twice now. I definitely think they helped break down barriers are make the team more relatable to each other. I'm liking things so far.
I love this box! During a time of major change at my company leaders are working hard to motivate our teams and keep things positive. The tips from the Motivation box not only help me do this but also in sharing the ideas with my peers they to are seeing positive results with their teams.
Only two weeks in and this has already substantially improved communication for me and my team members. I’m also seeing early returns with improved communication with our broader workgroups. The enthusiasm the box sparked is contagious and kicked off a cycle of ideation on improving all facets of comms. I highly recommend this to anyone looking to improve communication and build better teams.
I’ve been using the unstuck box for a couple weeks now and even shared it across my peers and suggested it to them. The cards aren’t rocket science, they’re easy, obvious subjects that I “could” have thought up myself, but that fact is, I didn’t. I always felt underprepared for my 1:1’s and these give me a prompt to get things moving, and let me set a theme for my whole team. I can’t wait to try the team building box!
This box was a last addition to the others I selected, and has exceeded expectations. I've used them with both my direct reports and my peer group, and they've been great conversation starters. I appreciate the different categories and the varied topics. Its easy to find the right question/conversation starter for the place the team is in at the moment.
