Somewhere in the world this afternoon, a group of friends on safety equipment and prepare for strapping together to scale the cliff. interpreted in a different city, another group of couples in a retreat to foster a sense of cooperation involved. Late at night in another town, six people who compete normally in the office in the development of robots. What they all have in common?
The proposition is to build a team, and has to make itself into a kind of business to represent the strengths and weaknesses of each member of a working group believes. The basic concept for a weekend of team building is a group of employees to bring together and to submit them for a variety of events and activities of the difficulty of cement them into a team that are mutually supported and shared on a common goal.
The only problem with this scenario is that all too often not working. After the group returned to the office, they fall back into old ways of working and team-building weekend is nothing more beautiful than a memory. The problem is not in the concept of team-building, but the idea that it can be achieved at the weekend, no matter what that requires weekend. It’s not like the team-building weekend is a bad idea – it is that they are expected to do the work to take place in your office every working day this year. should introduce the purpose of team building to strengthen and reward, not for a self forging a group of colleagues in the team. If as a substitute for the work of your company (or a manager) has to do every day, then you are losing some important points – and to draw all the great benefits from the Office of the weekend exhilirating and challenging activities.
So how do you forge relationships with the team, if it does not dip them in a container with team-building weekend? In this simple way you can talk, not just talk – you have to walk. If you believe your employees that their team and work as a team, then you should treat them as team – and himself as an important member.
- Communication is the key to building a team.
o The biggest mistake “administration” to make is to communicate failure. Your company does not like an open book for all employees, but common goals and intentions give employees the feeling that they work part of a larger team on specific objectives.
- Strengthen cooperation in the workflow.
o-order as a team, this person should work be treated as such. to define the start of each project with a team conference and refine goals. Create areas of ‘Lounge’ center, where the members of the team easily grab coffee in the morning – and took some time to pursue something in common. Hold regular team meetings where team members can report on progress and delays so that no one feels left of the loop.
- Create a priority for performance recognition.
o-power of knowledge is important to increase the sense of the team. It does not have formal – in fact, the recognition of informal and unexpectedly can be very powerful. A word in passing in the hall, when taken to give praise from customers over a cup of coffee, “good work on the proposal, which” are relaxed at the end of the session, all part of the program of team work.
- Take time to play as a team.
o What plays softball team, a bowling league or semi-annual weekend where team members really stretch their wings, the team worked well when they have something in common besides their jobs. Building a trip to snow-capped mountain, the memories together helped cement the bonds that have formed throughout the year.
