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.

“In the course of this set of workshops we got into the shoes of our competitors and looked at our company through their eyes. It gave us all an opportunity to go beyond our business as usual, to discuss with and learn from internal experts, and finally, to think more strategically. I also found the meetings with external experts very inspiring. It was very insightful to look at the market from their perspective.”

"Impact are a refreshing company to work with. They make everything feel bespoke and special to you. Too many companies recycle their product but Impact can always be relied upon to deliver training and development with a personal touch. Carefully constructed programmes which are fun and innovative but equally deadly serious with key business deliverables. The products are business focused and the people have real passion for what they do and are hungry to make a difference to their clients."
