Team Building Speaker Garrison Wynn
Depending on Each Other for Success:
The truth about team building
Building better relationships internally will improve your team's ability to be consistently productive. - Garrison Wynn
What makes working with others difficult? We're afraid we're not going to get what we want, or we're going to lose what we already have.
This funny, insightful team work presentation combines relationship building with no-fluff motivation and change, Garrison examines the challenges team members face in a difficult market, and shows how they can learn to use those challenges as a catalyst for future success.
Team members acquire specific skills to recognize and manage difficult personality styles, dramatically improve communication skills, overcome fear, work well together in tough times and significantly improve interactions with others by building better relationships.

Funny, fast and entertaining. I was shocked at how much information I received from just the 30 min that Garrison spoke. His energy level was way up there and the stories tied it all together! After 30 years in Subway he was one of the top 3 I have ever seen. Thanks again for being part of our team too. Bill Horner, Development Agent, SUBWAY
Your segments on trust and the truth about team building were particularly appropriate in light of our upcoming journey. I also wanted to compliment you on the way you made the material interesting and enjoyable. Your use of humor and real life examples held our interest while still being very relevant. We are a rather serious group but you had us entertained the whole time. Once again, thanks for working with us on this project and I look forward to working with you again in the future.
