Team Development In A Hybrid Environment

Teams provide a “canary in the coal mine” for organizational health.
Teams reflect the trust, candor, and transparency of the organization
around them. As a result, working on team development provides a big
payoff for the organization as a whole.

To be effective, teams must strike a delicate balance between the
individual’s needs and the needs of the group—a daunting and fascinating
task. Teams must monitor their similarities to avoid Group Think. Conversely, they must manage their differences
to avoid impasse. The collective differences of the team members give
them a rich variety of perspectives that can produce phenomenal output when they learn to manage, even treasure their differences.

The Team Function Survey^©—which is customized to
meet the culture of the individual customer—serves as a baseline for
examining team dynamics to encourage useful differences, effective
interaction (including virtual and face-to-face meetings), methods to
bring new members up to speed, and tactics to produce alignment.

This is an eye-opening experience for any organization moving toward a team-based environment or struggling with team development. Members will practice and internalize behaviors that balance Product, Process, and People.
Participants will develop a plan to improve and measure verbal performance over a six-month period. The plan includes three virtual reporting and coaching sessions with Mac Bogert to benchmark success and to change habits that impede powerful communication.
