In today’s challenging business environment high performing teams are an essential element of an organisation’s competitive advantage and ultimately their success. High performing teams are characterised by engaged and productive members who understand how to contribute in ways that produce results that go beyond what any individual could accomplish alone.
But not all teams reach levels of high performance, and in fact many teams often get stuck in stages of low performance producing results that are sub-par to those that could be achieved by an individual.
Managers play a critical role in the development of teams and determining whether their outcome will be of high stature and performance or dysfunction and underperform. In order to achieve the former outcome, managers need skills, knowledge and tools that will guide and assist them in developing their teams to high performance.
