Let’s look at few key areas we highlight in a Taal Inc Drum Talks session to make the participants  experience Group Cohesion through our specially designed art and drumming based activities:

• Creating a mission, a common goal:
   The most important factor to determine everyone’s involvement is your team’s clarity about the mission. We decide the goals of the group at the very beginning of the session and how we will accomplish those goals. 
• Practicing Teamwork:
  Team-building exercises are the best way to see how individual members will work together to accomplish a goal and A Taal Inc. Drum Circle is one of the most effective team building activities in pune out there. Before the team has to work on important tasks, we see how they handle something simple like an ice breaker. Who took the lead? Who worked well together? Use what you observe and apply it to the real mission. Plus, your team members will bond with each other in the process.
• Celebrating Small and Big Achievements:
  When the team successfully accomplishes the missions established at the beginning, it’s important to recognize them for it. We make sure the group knows it and appreciate their work and thank them at every step of the way. 
• Two way feedback mechanism:
   Throughout a project and after a project is complete, you need to give your team feedback. This can be a combination of individual feedback and for the team as a whole and also ask for feedback. In a Taal Inc. HR engagement session or a Drum Talks Session, we use various mediums for exchanging feedback such as sharing circles, appreciative inquiry and creative writing. This constructive feedback mechanism makes for a more cohesive team for next projects to come.

An organization whose people communicate effectively experience fewer misunderstandings that create friction between people, waste time, and decrease productivity. This module will help your team understand how their work contributes to the organization’s strategy and goals and in turn, help fill in any communication gaps leading to an improved work environment and culture.

What does the world look like to you post covid? To me, I sense a lot of fatigue as much as I sense a renewed inspiration. I notice a general anxiety, people dealing with mental health issues and uncertainty. I cannot help but witness how privileged I am in addition to many of the readers of this blog and how this pandemic has really affected a gross majority of people hailing from more economically difficult situations. How can we deal with these problems that are facing us today as we gradually step out and rebuild ourselves, our economy and society?

To me, the answer is the only way I know, I.E. Using rhythm and by focusing on community. It takes a tribe and even more so now. It is time we looked back at our lifestyles and changed our depleting and destructive ways. The future is about building connections, living sustainably and giving generously.

Deep within our collective cultural inheritance is an innate ability to be in sync with one another. And this is demonstrated in how we make music with people. Be it two people playing drums or a hundred piece orchestra perfectly synchronizing together, to ‘entrain’ (be together as one team) IS human nature.

Taal Inc. Drum Talks is an Online Session or (wherever possible) a Covid-Compliant In-Person Session. This session will draw from age old ensemble music making principles and make explicit some basic takeaways that will be tied in to very relevant behavioural competencies or concepts such as leadership, motivation, communication, team building Pune or group cohesion, mutual trust and more.
