Team
Building
In today's increasingly horizontal business environments,
functioning as part of a self-directed work team or task force
is an ongoing challenge for employees at all levels. Many individuals
experience difficulty in moving from a "me" to a "we"
mentality - whether their role is as leader or participant. Often
the purpose, goals and accountabilities within a team are not
clearly defined or communicated. Interpersonal dynamics and conflicts
can also impede the team's ability to be productive. LED works
with our clients to:
- Clearly articulate the team's purpose, goals and objectives,
and timetable
- Define and ensure understanding of leaders' and participants'
roles and responsibilities
- Review and recommend appropriate team-based incentive and
reward systems
- Design and implement processes such as ongoing communication
and decision-making to maximize team efficiency and productivity
- Develop the leadership, communication and project management
skills of team members
- Surface and resolve conflicts and barriers to success within
and across teams
- Facilitate meetings, as well as coach leaders on effective
meeting planning and facilitation
- Conduct team-building activities and exercises to enhance
interpersonal relationships and increase commitment
