All For One - The Meerkat Way

Product:OC/302D

The most powerful success factor for any organisation is how well its people work together, however bringing this idea to life can fall flat. This new film blasts through the clichés to demonstrate the power of teamwork as a life-or-death skill set.

Beautifully shot by BBC crews in the Kalahari, the film shows how meerkats manage to survive against all odds in one of the world’s most hostile environments through the use of team work. The programme teaches and motivates with its down-to-earth demonstration of important teamwork principles. Participants will clearly understand the value of team-oriented behaviours as the following training points are highlighted:

• The power of teamwork
• The benefits of inter-dependence
• The importance of communication
• Accountability
• Continuous improvement
