Team Learning
& Team Building |
|
Focuses
on principles for building effective teams
- Begin with a shared goal - one that
inspires!
- Evolve and grow when team members
recognize and value the unique strengths, perspectives and working styles each person brings to the table.
- Team conflicts
are neutralized when people realize their disagreements usually signal a difference in working styles.
Once people recognize this as the cause of the conflict, they can easily
appreciate the (balancing) value of a different perspective.
