Individual employee behaviors affect relationships, communications, conflicts, and overall team performance. Do conflicts arise each time your team meets? How well do the team members relate to one another? Are they cooperative on projects? Do they work seamlessly as a cohesive group?
While many consider it the leader's role to create an environment that fosters teamwork, in reality, it is everyone's responsibility. Each team member needs to recognize that people are different. These differences can affect the way team members relate to other members, as well as how they respond to different circumstances. If these differences are not addressed and understood, they eventually affect the attitude of the employees, which is detrimental to team productivity. A wise man once said, "Building a relationship is like building a house... you can't put the roof on a house until the foundation is complete."
The Art of Collaboration helps design cooperative teams that produce results by utilizing the most effective players to accomplish the mission in a productive timeframe. Getting everyone to play nicely in the sandbox — with cohesive, productive, working relationships — is something every organization strives for.
