Building great teams??..#business #leadership | www - you

Team building is not all about weekends away in the Lake District building rafts & swinging through the trees. Effective Managers employ simple everyday methods to build team performance. Here are 10 tips for great team building:-

  1. Do as I do not as I say. ? If you ask team members to carry out tasks you either cannot or wouldn?t do yourself you will quickly lose respect.
  2. Eliminate the blame culture ? Organizations which have an overwhelming blame culture are unproductive & waste energy. Avoid blaming others, especially in public, and seek to improve your own performance & those of your team.
  3. Open & Honest Feedback ? is to be encouraged. If you want to question a team members performance it must be done in private & in an open, honest manner. Be prepared to hear things you don?t want to hear but don?t be afraid to point out weaknesses you feel need to be rectified.
  4. Don?t delegate irresponsibly -? by overloading your team or passing off un-savoury tasks you don?t fancy doing yourself. This will only create resentment & lower morale.
  5. Get your hands dirty ? now & then, the team will really appreciate it ? and so will you.
  6. ?Big Up? your team ? to Senior Management instead of taking the credit yourself.
  7. Have an ?open door? policy - to listen to people?s personal problems, it will be much appreciated.
  8. Show Leadership ? by taking responsibility for failure as well as success.
  9. Treat others as you would have them treat you ? it?s obvious but the best advice normally is.
  10. Celebrate Success ? buy the drinks, cakes ? whatever but celebrate that win !
