StrengthsFinder Flipped Classroom

A team learning experience built for reflection, engagement, and real behavior change

The Challenge

A global accounting team had recently invested in the StrengthsFinder assessment but hadn’t yet translated it into a meaningful learning experience. Leadership wanted a session that would build awareness, encourage collaboration, and help team members better understand how to work together.

They asked for something engaging. Function + Form co-created something transformational.

What Function + Form Did

Function + Form partnered with an internal Business Training Specialist to design and deliver a flipped classroom workshop—an active, gamified session that brought strengths-based collaboration to life.

Our Contributions:

  • Designed and structured a 2-hour workshop with prework, in-session activities, and follow-up

  • Created all facilitation materials, reflection prompts, and team handouts

  • Developed a strengths-based team game using physical props, role constraints, and real-time problem-solving

  • Facilitated the workshop across multiple teams, tailoring each experience to unique team dynamics

  • Co-created a post-workshop toolkit with discussion guides and action planning templates

Why It Worked

Function + Form blended adult learning principles with team play to create a memorable, emotionally intelligent session. Participants didn’t just learn their strengths—they felt what it was like to have them blocked or supported.

By using a flipped model and embedding play into strategy, we helped employees discover how to use their strengths more intentionally—and how to support others in doing the same.

The Outcome

  • Full participation and engagement across departments

  • Immediate shifts in how employees collaborated and communicated

  • Managers reported that team members initiated conversations around how they could show up more effectively

  • Leadership praised the session as “refreshing, energizing, and deeply relevant”
