About

With operations in 50 countries and 68,000 employees, Thales is a global technology leader for the aerospace, space, defence, security and transportation markets. Impact have run the team building module in partnership with the Thales Université SMP programme since 2002.

During the nine-month programme, the SMP participants are tasked with managing a real business project. The team building module is designed as a launch event, to help prepare the group to work collaboratively, whilst remotely, on their chosen project. Team working, intercultural awareness, communication skills and networking opportunities are all covered in the programme. 

Impact designed an interactive programme that uses experiential projects to highlight the value of collaboration and sharing. Expertly facilitated review sessions encourage opportunity for open dialogue about effective team working. By the end of the first module, participants have established how they will work efficiently together as project teams. 

Impact's work in close partnership with Thales Université, and our ongoing dialogue and strong relationship results in a consistently relevant and fresh event. The participants enjoy getting to know one another socially and value Impact’s support to establish an effective project team relationship.

“Impact were world class in their ability to align desired outcomes and design a challenging leadership experience. Their facilitation was on. point, woven in perfectly with the external conditions our participants were experiencing. The programme challenged participants in many different forms to ensure everyone was stretched. It brought an awareness of how to handle difficulty and ambiguity, of the impact they had on others, and of the strength they drew from themselves and their team."

“Talent management is a long and exciting road and we are pleased that our partner on the first phase of this journey was Impact. As I am responsible for talent management at Atos Poland, our management workshop was of the greatest value to me, as during this we successfully redirected our leaders to thinking that talent management is not only a HR process, identifying and developing talent benefits the business, managers and the individual.”
