Putting the I in Team


This sports cliche is a memorable phrase that reminds people that team success is more important than individual glory. In that sense it is wonderful and is as true for business teams as it is for sports teams. The phrase, however, overlooks the role of the individual in making the team stronger.

Seven Keys to More Effectively Leading Teams


Maybe you find yourself in a new team environment and leading a team for the first time, or maybe you have been working with and leading teams forever. Either way, the keys in this article ? whether as new information or a fresh reminder ? can make a world of difference in morale, productivity and results from teams.

The Top Ten Methods to Create a Successful Work Team


Teams are often useful in situations where the task cannot be completed individually or if the task requires working interdependently. However, a successful team requires thought and planning.

Station Teams: Assembly Required


Too often teams aren?t assembled. They just happen. A project comes along and a team is assigned to work it. The group gathers and attempts to figure out a solution, but trouble starts brewing almost at once. Only some of the people do any work. Some people don?t get along. Meetings are frequent and mind numbing. No one is quite sure what the assignment actually is.

Putting Your Expert Team Together


As a freelance writer myself, I know how important it is to have, and keep track of, experts to interview. Here are a few ideas on the topic:

How To Encourage Ideas From Your Team At Meetings


You?re at a meeting with key staff. You want some new ideas to address the topic. Looking around at this group of creative, ambitious, bright people, you say, ?Let?s get some fresh ideas on this. Who?s got something??

Boost Your Success With An R&D Team

Team Building Celebration Plan -- Perfect For Any Time of Year


When was your last team celebration? Have you been way too busy to bother? Sometimes we get so caught up in day-to-day work that we don't take the time to step back and celebrate success. Some teams may even consider team celebrations as "silly."

Aligning Corporate Teams


Picture yourself entering a corporate meeting, team meeting, or business meeting. There you are sitting in the room, while someone in the ?expert? or ?boss? chair speaks to you or at you. There you are, not aligned with that person?s mission or vision. There you are, feeling apart from the process. There you are, lacking energy and the desire for being there. There you are, hearing what is going wrong and what you or your team or department needs to change or improve. How are you feeling?

Leading the Witness: How Asking Questions as a Trainer Can Limit Learning and Reduce Trust
"Asking questions can be a means of establishing authority, fulfilling leadership functions, and ensuring effective learning.

Building Teams -You see it everywhere
A college football team has it. A corporation has it. Even a growing family has it. These three organizations share a common desire to build their prospective teams.

Young, married couples who are having children are building their own family teams. Each of these results has a different outcome. In the end, the goal is to work together, help each other, and collectively reach a higher level of performance. Whatever team you are currently involved with, it is surprising at how much organization is needed to build a great team.
