Save Our Street Dogs (SOSD) was impacted by the learning of various communication strategies which appealed to the different thinking and behavioural preferences of their team-mates through hands-on team building exercises. They were then challenged to rethink their current thought processes and habits so that they can improve their productivity in their day-to-day work. These skills were influential in them enhancing their leadership, and in turn better engage volunteers they work with.
