Teams need to have a deep understanding of how to work together effectively. This means recognising the interdependencies among team members and working towards a common goal rather than operating individually.
Teams also need to actively seek opportunities to collaborate and share knowledge with others. This helps them tap into collective expertise, avoiding duplication of effort, and lets them leverage resources more efficiently.
Teams must also prioritise accountability and ensure they follow through on their promises. This builds trust and credibility, both internally and externally, and fosters a culture of excellence and drives sustained performance.This week, Dan and Pia are joined by Juliet Hammond to comb through the latest Squadify data, to tease out how teams can perform better.
