Defining Team Before Discussing Teamwork Activities
Defining “team” is a critical first step before embracing the challenge of improving team results. There are lots of definitions available but my belief with any business communication is the simpler the better as long as the simplification does not reduce the clarity. I wish I could come up with just one but I believe there are two key types of teams:
· A group of people with a specific objective.
· A group of people who interact* well together.
*interact can take on many definitions but the basic premise is there is some benefit by people “interacting” versus individual results.
