TOP GUN TEAMWORK

Enable your team to implement 'teaming' frameworks.

Your team is likely tired of chasing fads, an overabundance of ever-changing good ideas, and one-off programs that may inspire but fail to drive lasting change. Our implementation program is the antidote to these problems. And it's something people love to participate in.

Top Gun Teamwork is VMax Group’s guided implementation program for leaders who want to build high-trust, high-accountability habits that last.

Your problem

You can feel the gap between a group of people who pump out task work and a real team.

Let's face it: most business teams aren't teams. And while the people on the 'team' work hard, they don't function the way they're supposed to. As a result, teaming isn't rewarding, and work becomes a hamster-wheel process that feels never-ending. The great news for you is that our 'teaming' frameworks can solve all of this. Because here's the truth: you most likely don't have a talent problem. We're willing to bet you have a teamwork problem. And it's one that we know how to help you fix, and in short order!

OUR PROMISE

We'll work together to give your teammates a shared way to plan, communicate, execute, and learn.

Top Gun Teamwork helps leaders build five essential conditions for better teamwork:

Discovering their Team's Purpose
We help teams understand the meaning and impact of their work, moving away from a world of never-ending tasks.
Clarifying Expectations
We help teams set measurable, agreed-upon objectives, clarifying ownership, and operating with a shared definition of success.
Setting and Upholding Standards
We help teams set the foundation for accountability and performance by clearly defining what right looks like across all activities.
Building Psychological Safety
We help teams create an environment where people feel safe to speak up, challenge assumptions, and surface concerns early without fear.
Building a Mission Rhythm
We help team do their work through a repeatable cycle of clarifying expectations, planning correctly, communicating the plan in a way that clarifies and inspires, executing against standards, and learning from every iteration, boosting confidence that the next one will go even better.

Here's what HomeVestor's CEO has to say about the way we do it, and the impact we make:
How it works

This is not a lesson in theory. This is where your leaders will "learn by doing."

Top Gun Teamwork combines concise online preparation with live group coaching, real-world practice, structured reflection, and accountability for implementation. Participants will actually apply the tools they're learning to the work they're doing, allowing for immediate ROI on the program investment. Doing so will accelerate learning and drive wider adoption throughout the organization through their modeling behaviors.

Experience
A guided implementation journey built around practical application and live coaching.
Practice
Participants plan real work, brief their teams, lead debriefs, and document what they learn.
Options

Is Top Gun Teamwork right for you?

It's a strong fit when you are ready to achieve behavior change and not simply buy a training event. Your leaders need to be willing to practice, look at their own decisions, and model the accountability they want from everyone else.
It is especially powerful for teams operating through growth, change, complexity, or pressure. The work does not ask your people to become fighter pilots. It gives them a better way to become the team their mission needs.
FAQ

Everything You Need 
to Know...Upfront

What is Top Gun Teamwork?

Top Gun Teamwork is designed for everyone from the C-suite to the front-line project managers. It's for new-hires to seasoned veterans. It's perfect for those looking to get promoted. And it's ideal for anyone looking to improve their teamwork and team leadership.

Who is Top Gun Teamwork for?

It fits leaders and teams ready to build behavior change, especially through growth, change, complexity, or pressure.

Is Top Gun Teamwork virtual or in person?

Top Gun Teamwork is conducted virtually over Zoom. Programs run for 90 minutes, and our instructors usually stay after to answer questions and talk about things from class.

How is it different from a workshop?

This program is all about implementation. And as it takes about 12 weeks to effect behavior change, the program lasts long enough to build new disciplines and change behaviors correctly. Additionally, VMax Group team instructors coach participants through the classes, enabling faster and better adoption.
