Building High-Performance Improvement Teams
In our March 12 post, we shared information on driving improvement through team development, noting that virtually every organization we have encountered struggles with developing teams.
But high-performing teams, by their nature, work on the right things
those that matter to the organization and those that help organizations compete in rapidly-changing, competitive marketplaces. Consequently, chartering and deploying effective project teams is one of the most important achievements for any organization.
those that matter to the organization and those that help organizations compete in rapidly-changing, competitive marketplaces. Consequently, chartering and deploying effective project teams is one of the most important achievements for any organization. Three key fundamentals for successfully building high performance teams are:
- Understanding tasks and
interpersonal skills, developing team mission and plan, clarifying roles and
responsibilities and determining team charter
- Using prioritization tools to identify and select the right things
to work on and determine the proper scope
- Working with sponsors
Of course there are many more components involved for sustaining a team's effort, such as doing a valid cost/benefit analysis, determining measures, and measuring team performance.
