Developing Teams: A Comprehensive Approach

 

Our approach to developing teams is both comprehensive and tailored to the challenges of the work group and the organization .  Our methods are focused on building a team that works collaboratively to achieve its goals.  Some of the tasks include:

Facilitating a meeting with the primary stakeholders to determine issues and challenges they are facing, identify information about the formation of the team and the team members, and to examine and understand the overall organizational goals.  It is extremely important to have the leadership of the organization full engaged in the team development process or there will be limited success.

Conduct confidential interviews with all team members and others in the organization as needed.

Conduct internet-based surveys that examine the organizational culture and effectiveness.

Identify main themes that are highlighted in both the interviews and the survey tools.  

Debrief the team leaders, organizational leaders, and all individuals involved in the interviews and surveys.

Design a team development initiative that may include team building activities that are experiential-based and provide the opportunity to learn a variety of skills.  

Provide leadership development coaching to team leaders and others within the organization to help improve the ability to lead the team despite differences in opinion, personality issues, and other types of interpersonal conflict.

Conduct regular follow-up sessions to review progress, examine results, and refine goals.
