Success in any organization today rests heavily upon how well we perform as a team. Most people accept that a champion team will beat a team of champions but how do you create a champion team? Unfortunately, effective teams do not just happen they have to be built. This building process has to be carefully customised to the particular needs of each team.
For our purposes, a team is regarded as no smaller than three people and no larger than twenty people in the organization. Usually the team exists around a common purpose or goal in the way that it works or performs. The team also has to see itself as a team by meeting regularly or regularly sharing experiences. This booklet presents a roadmap for team success and suggests a number of specific steps that a team can follow to achieve long-term advantage.
