| High performing teams tend to have the following characteristics: |
|
Clearly defined goals and measures
of success |
|
Delineated roles and responsibilities |
|
A clear understanding of the strengths of each team member |
|
The ability to leverage on personal differences as strengths |
|
An organic and well oiled code of conduct, and |
|
An awareness of team developmental needs |
|
| |
| The increased emphasis of team over individual contribution makes
it critical for team members to acquire specific skills in team-working.
Our experience suggests that team development programs are most effective
when the intervention is well planned and executed over a 6 month to
1 year period. It is equally important that team development initiatives
are supplemented with a tailored coaching plan for individual members. |

| Effective Teamworking |
| Identifying and leveraging on the diverse strengths
of team members is a challenge for any team leader. Similarly, team
members need to recognise skill, interest, behaviour and value differences
as strengths that contribute to the common goal of a team. This workshop
examines: |
|
Alignment of corporate and team goals |
|
Alignment of team and individual goals |
|
Recognising and understanding skill, interest, behaviour
and value differences of team members as individual and collective
strengths |
|
Allocation of roles and responsibilities based on individual
strengths and differences |
|
The motivational style and needs of individual team members |
|
Aligning behaviour to organisational values |
|
Surfacing and resolving conflict objectively |
|
Where a competency framework exists, individual and team
developmental needs will be aligned to the
competency framework. |
| |
