TEAM WORK - KEY ELEMENTS
1. Commitment—Commitment happens when the team members see
themselves as belonging to the team instead of as individuals acting on
their own initiative. Also, commitment is evident when the team
members are committed to the team goals over and above their own
personal goals.
2. Trust—When team members have faith that each member will honor
their commitments, support each other, share and maintain confidences,
and act in a responsible manner, trust is nurtured and exhibited.
3. Purpose—It is important for teams to understand how they fit into
the overall organizational picture of a business. And, equally important,
team members must know their individual roles, feel a sense of pride
and ownership of the project and recognize that their contribution can
make a difference.
4. Communication—Strong teams are those that exercise effective
communication among members, as well as between group members
and those outside the team. Members must be able to handle conflict,
practice effective Group decision-making and work toward smooth dayto-day interactions.
5. Involvement—Team members each have an integral part on the
team. Their contributions are respected and solicited, and they establish
a real consensus before committing the team to action. Though
differences in opinion are bound to occur, team members must feel a
partnership with each other and respect
those differences.
6. Process—Effective teams possess proficient use of problem solving
skills, the ability to plan, attend regular meetings complete with meeting
agendas and minutes of the meetings, and use protocol to deal with
problems.
