Course Overview

Team management is about mobilizing others to achieve much more than you could ever achieve on your own and the capacity to participate effectively in teams is increasingly required of staff. The reason for this restructuring is clear; there is ample evidence to suggest that today\'s organizations face unprecedented challenges. To survive, organizations have to look to cost containment and increased performance.

A proven successful strategy for the achievement of these two elements is the introduction of team working. This program explores the benefits of teamworking and its impact on performance improvement. It will help develop a better understanding of what leads to team effectiveness, provide a basis of diagnosing teamwork problems and conflicts, and ideas on how to prevent teamwork problems developing in the first place.

It will also cover leadership style, team roles and team composition. The emphasis will be on the increase on team effectiveness and the development of a \'team-player culture\'.

Participants will be expected to make small group presentations of solutions to \'real\' team working problems and design a \'team charter\' for future reference. Various videos will be shown in order to \'benchmark\' the establishment of team working in other organizations.

Who should take this course

The program is primarily intended for first and second line supervisors, but it will be particularly useful to all those involved in management through teamworking and the encouragement of leadership in management. Human Resource professionals and trainers will also find the course useful.
