An organization is a group of people who work together towards the goals of the organization. So if I'm a company, I will hire certain people. These people will work towards achieving the goals of my organization, which could be getting profits. Now, is it possible for any company to achieve success without employees? Will it be better if all the employees work in a team and perform and get the results? Or would you hide a person who would work independently without any one support? And we'll take your company forward, which is the better approach. What you would always want to hide a person who works in a team, because steam work will make you achieve your goals even in a better manner. So teamwork involved set of interdependent activities performed by individuals who collaborate towards a common goal. So the goal is common, which is achieved the company's target. Different individuals who are working in different verticals. A person who was working in HR or posted was working in operations, a person who is working in the lead section and in the security department. So all of them together, they might be working in two or three groups. These groups together will form a team which will eventually help you to achieve your results. If you have to define a team, it's a group of people who worked to get together to achieve a common goal. They may have different memberships way HR department may have five to ten people. They might form one group to security department may have three to four people. They will form one team. Similarly, the operations might have 15 to 20 people who work in three different teams. So five people in each team. So there are three teams of operations. So smaller teams together who woke on a common goal and objective will perform together to achieve the goals of the organization. Now, these players, these team members will collaborate with each other. Each and every member will be responsible for contributing towards the team. Had eventually the team will achieve success. So now we have understood the purpose of the team. A team is formed to achieve or accomplish a task which is too large or complex for an individual to complete? Beans, are they effective way to work which will not only require a different set of skill set, but expertise. These people were different skill sets, different culture, different mindsets, different color, religion, creed. They come together in work in a team. What are the five important characteristics often effective teamwork now rewards. Now once he worked in a team, you came to achieve your results in a much faster way. You get rewarded for it, Achieving the company's goals. There are certain skills which are required for you to achieve a certain objective. Within a team, you will have different types of people who will have different skill set. Now once they combine together and work in a team, just imagine the possibility of getting the best results for your organization. Dean has to be led by a leader who is called a team leader with an inspiring vision and mutual trust with shared values. This team can achieve any given result, any given dog it why? Because this team has a vision this team believes upon themselves. They also trust each other. They have shared values. They are working towards the common goal. They are being led by a leader. What does an individual required in a team? The team requires to give the individual supporting guidance, provide effective solutions. A common platform where everyone can come together, discuss and resolve most of the important issues. There are certain rules for teamwork. Well, for you to be a successful dean Blair, and for your team to be the best team, you need to be open and the team unique to express yourself, you need to encourage diversity of opinion unique to allow people to give their opinion. Think what they have to say. Everyone should get an opportunity of participation as well. You should be open to new approaches, new ideas, most of the problems would be solved. And in there, you need to understand the people, the person who are there in the team, your team members, you need to be clear and concise what they are supposed to do. Each and every role should be clearly specified what room this person is supposed to do or is supposed to achieve. You need to have regular discussions and have meetings were drawing charts, explanations. Now this will make your team ability. 3. What are the benefits of Teamwork ?: But what is the benefit of working in a team? You must have seen and observed. Once you sit in a team, there are different ideas which comes, let's suppose you have a problem which is required to be solved and it's not happening. It's the deep performance of the team is not improving. The company is not making profits. So you sit together, you discussed as a team, what should we do so that we start making profits? Now, what if five to ten people who are there in the group? Different suggestions welcome. And one of the ideas which would be to increase and improve the product line. Hanged, do social media marketing will be an idea which will be given by one of the team members that will quickly get resonated with the entire team. And that one idea will change the way your company functions and works. Now you will start operating and working upon bringing new products innovative and creative. At the same time, you will also start focusing on social media marketing. The ideas have come into group. Different people when they sit together, they share their ideas, their opinion, their feedback. And this is what will help the team to achieve the goals. Teamwork will always make you happy because you are getting an environment where you are talking to each other. They are sharing things and joining your what team you are having snacks, you are drinking coffee, sitting together, having great time. You're helping each other in the team. So this environment itself will make you feel happy. Workload and burnout also gets reduced. Just imagine you're working for eight hours continuously sitting in front of BCM doing nothing. I mean, just not even looking somewhere else, only working in working. That's something which will definitely make a burnout will make you stressed. And just imagine you have a lively team who are just having chit chats discussion. Everyone is enjoying their sharing their targets, how much they have achieved the goals, the sales. So the Florida's lively, the environment is so cheerful, everyone is just loving the work. Also recognition from each other once you do good work, for example, I have a team of ten people and one of my friends achieves a seal, and it's a one hundred, ten hundred rupees sail over default. So I'm really happy and everyone just starts in collapse for the person. So this person feels motivated. Dispersion will give more efforts in the second call rates, this is the beauty of working in a team. You encourage, you constantly motivate your team members. Once you work in a team, you feel less stressed. Why? Because your Florida's lively, everyone is just interacting, smiling, having a happy and good dying. Also diverse perspectives allow you to come up with weddings solutions. As I said, that people with different backgrounds, different study backgrounds, different cultures, languages, once they work in sit together, they will have different points of views. And once you listen to them, you'll get great ideas, creative ideas to improve your performance. So when you work in a team, you grow as an individual. Why? Because you are getting the experience of all the people who are there in the group. Everyone will share their own experiences, will help with their ideas, and that is going to grow the entirety. Dividing the work lets you grow your skills. Now this is also very, very important. Delegation plays very important role in teamwork. Now as a manager, as a team leader, I may not be able to do all the work together, but I may give that work distributed equally among my team members or someone who's good at it, that work will be completed and in a better manner. Working in a team helps you to take the risk off. Also, good communication boosts your creativity. Now, the best benefit or in fact, the biggest benefit of working in a team miscommunication. Once you sit together, discuss with your friends and a group, you come up with ideas. Also, your confidence level increases because once you speak in a team, the entire team listens to you your ideas. And that is where you are encouraged to come out of your comfort zone. And this not only boost your confidence would also add value to the team. If, if, if you have to make a better team, think about your team first, avoid conflicts in your team. While conflicts are always welcome if they are. But we should try to avoid conflict. Have more discussions. The team leader should take the responsibility of encouraging, motivating, and boosting the people. The energy should be positive. In all, you should avoid criticism, any type of negative thoughts, beliefs, opinions should be avoided. If a person is doing good in a team, he should be recognized and rewarded. That will be not only good for that particular person, but it will also encourage others to do the same thing the next day. So team plays very important role in organization as well as our personal lives. In fact, incorporated world. Every organization works for profit. And if you want to make your company profitable, you need to invest your time in making your team stronger. You need to have healthy competition among the team members. The relationship between employees, different members belonging to different teams gets trend you gained from each other. So if one team is performing better, the other team will be motivated to perform even better. They will be healthy competition among each member. And they will try to prove themselves by getting bigger, better numbers. And this is good for your company. Importance of teambuilding incorporates is immense because you're working together. You're making the environment good place to good work with. Your relationship with everyone is improving. You are having less stress confusion, and the environment is really awesome to work together. Also, when you walk her work in a team, you are able to accomplish more than an individual person. The quality of work becomes better. Your support and great sense of accomplishment is also their teamwork creates outcomes which is definitely going to use the existing resources and produce Richard ideas. It will increase the efficiency, bring more ideas to the table. You'll be able to achieve your foster work in a faster manner. We'll increase the effectiveness as well. So if we briefly talked about the individual aspect of being in a team, you will achieve greater sense of accomplishment. You would want to initiate certain things so that you get recognized and the team Bye everyone. 4. What are different types of Teams ?: Now what are different types of teams? Now, today in a virtual world wherein the entire world has been affected by COVID-19 E19, where people have been told to work from home. That is altogether an entire definition, a new definition of team. These teams not a walking together, sitting at one place, but there weren't working virtually at their homes, collaborating with each other through Cloud to digital medium. Now these teams include virtual teams, cross-functional teams, teams which are working together on different projects, but at the same time they're collaborating together. Cross-functional teams bring together people who are diverse expertise and knowledge from different departments. Or speciality is they have a common goal, common ploy Jake, wherein they are including the entire expertise and knowledge of their own domain to this particular project that is cross-functional teams. Project teams are created for a defined period of time to achieve a specific goal. Maybe a project for construction of railway bridge or a station that has a specific project for which you might be selected and you need to work for as a project in a team for maybe one or two years. So these are different types of team task for as a specialty in which is created to address a single piece of work problem or a goal. It could be as simple task for maybe achieving certain goals. Now, there is a difference between team. A team is a group of people involved in the same activity, especially referring to sports and the work. However, groups may have different types of people working together on different objectives or task orientation purpose, cross-functional teams as well. This can this comprise of people from different departments with special area of expertise working to achieve a common goal. I have given you the example. So there is a project which requires people from HR department, from security, from operations. They want to come, they have to come together to work on this particular project. So this will require a cross-functional team. It also challenges are dead because you are working in teams which have different cultures, different people, and different expertise as well. Virtual team is a team which has created temporarily to work on a specific task. They could be different types of vertical teams. Virtual teams were network teams, project development teams, service teams, etc. The challenge of a virtual team is coordination, team members, skills, relationship, because everything is virtually, you're not sitting in a team. You are not interacting with each other or sitting closely face-to-face, but rather you are interacting through Internet, through video conferences. That's a separate thing altogether. Advantages of self-managing team. This is how things are working now, to work from home, you are giving a particular task and you are supposed to complete that task. And you need to manage yourself through your works or disadvantages of self-managing team is that your personal relationship might hamper because you are having your own work to do without interacting with people. Also, many a times, self-management acts as a layer of responsibility that takes more time. This has to be done. The norm for now because in this environment, you have to work in a team which may not be physically present together. You'd have to self-manage yourself along with the demon, achieve goals of the organization. So these are different types of teams which exist. But the best team as once you're working together and join your time and having great work environment. 5. What are Teamwork Skills ?: About, let's talk about some important teamwork skills. Like communication plays a very important role if you are a team player. Why? Because as a team play, you need to communicate your ideas, your opinion, your viewpoint. Only then you will be able to make an impact on the team. You're effective time management will help you to complete your task is given by the team in a time-efficient manner. Your problem-solving skills will be really helpful when the team sits together to brainstorm on new ideas and find solutions to the existing problems. Now the most important skill if I have to talk about when it comes to teamwork is listening. You need to listen to your team members more than you speak. Because listening itself will make you a better team player. Make it a habit that you listen to the people before you speak and give them a proper hearing, let her speak, whatever they have to. Let them put their heart out, right? Critical thinking, It's not about thinking about the present, but also about the future. What are the different aspects you need to have a 360 degree approach towards thinking unique look into all the aspects of thinking. Whenever you are making a decision and your critical thinking abilities, your strategy thinking will help you to get a better position as a team member. You'll be valued for your feedback. Every person would be looking forward for what you have to say. Once your opinions is getting acknowledged and valued, you will definitely get a better position in the company. Collaboration plays a very, very important role as a team player. The biggest advantage and the biggest reason for the team to be successful as collaborating together, working together. Leadership role is something which will come to you if you stock looking as a team, as a coefficient, you as a leader, even if you're not a leader or team member, you can lead the team with examples, with your performance, with your character, with your soft skills, with lower performance, absolutely. You will be regarded as a leader and soon it will be acknowledged and accepted by your company as well. Also different recruiters, managers, prospective employers. They look forward to organs to take a day interview. The characteristics of a team player, a positive attitude. Can you work in a team? Communication? Once I talk about communication, it's about giving feedback, taking feedback, persuading others, helping each other to set goals for the company. Receiving the guidance of your seniors, doing research on a particular aspect, and also communicating verbally and written communication. Now these are the things which will help you to communicate better with your team. Conflict management plays a very important role in our team work. Why? Because once you got an a team, you are among people. And once you sit with people, there will be conflicts. And the ability to handle conflict in camera to a win-win situation for both the people who are involved in the conflict is conflict management. You need to have a collaborative approach. You need to have a conflict resolution approach. You need to listen to people. You need to have logical argument based on emotional intelligence and how you will use your critical thinking to come out with solutions. So if there is a conflict in the team, you need to listen to both the people, lead the other people speak their heart out, whatever it is the problem, try to solve the problem, getting body perspective and coming to a win-win solution. So the conflict should not be encouraged. But if there is a conflict should be resolved as well because a conflict of not resolve will lead to a better conflict and confusion within the team. And the performance of the team will be affected by that. As I said, listening plays a very, very important role. In fact, the most important reasons why Dean failures, because the team doesn't listen to anyone. So once you start listening to people within your team, you will be playing, paying more attention to what people have to say. Ultimately, you will be resolving dq, the concerns of the people. Having a great eye contact, giving feedback to people interpreting things by listening to them, both verbally and non-verbally. Having patients, it relaxed approach where you're receiving the feedback with an open-mind and summarizing your thoughts on what the others have to say. Reliability. Now, just imagine you are a team and you have been given a deadline to complete a project in ten days. Now you'll note that this project cannot be complete before 20 days because it's a big project. But if you as a team having demo of 1010 members, if you're decided, if you prioritize a few said deadlines, you can't achieve the target and attendees as well, but it has to be absolutely perfectly managed and executed. So you need to formulate a plan. You need to have proper time schedules, deadlines wherein you'll achieve certain objectives. And you will also have well-defined roles for every team member. Once the rules are given a cost to be accepted and acknowledged by the person who was in the team. And accordingly, that person will start working towards achieving their own targets. Once everyone to start to work on their own targets and complete the deadlines, they will start to be more reliable for the company and for the team as well. So your reliability, your ability to complete the task in the given time. Absolutely, We're great. Accomplishment makes your motor liable and makes you a better team. Pray. Respectfulness. Respectfulness is something which will come naturally the way you respect people in life post sleep. The same goes for once you're working in a team, you may have people belonging to different religion, cause creed, different country, different region of your own country. They may have different languages as well, but you as a team need to work together. You need to come to a common conclusion. You need to respect each other's views, their culture. If, if they do not like something you need to understand and be sensitive towards it, you cannot make fun or just ignore it. You need to acknowledge and accept that this is something which I need to make sure that I'm following in Norway, going to hurt the sentiments of the adipose. And that is how you become a team plan. Your respectfulness, respect for others, please. A failure. Very important. Now these are some of the additional skills of building rapport where team members, yes, being engaging to each other, persuasive skills as very important, having respect for each other, self-awareness, managing projects on time, and having an influence on people in a positive manner, being accountable for whatever work has been given to you. If you, if something goes wrong, you are taking the responsibility of not completing the task on time rather than shifting blame, you are taking the accountability. You are not only creative, but also have an innovative mindset where you're planning the project in a supportive, making decisions in a better manner, you receive and give feedback would proper time management, presentation skills you are able to complete and organized the task in a better manner. With delegation and trustworthiness, you are achieving your goals on time as well. 6. How to build a Team ?: Now how do you build a team? That's a very important topic that we must have heard about teamwork, team skills. How do you become a good team member? But how do you actually build a team? Now team has to be buried by a leader. Team is built by the people and the team. Now, let's suppose you have an important task and you, you have been given the opportunity to work in a team, which is not your choice, but you have to work in a team where the team leader. Now how do you actually build it? The team is not about being together in an a group of five or ten people know that. But your association, you are bonding, your interaction, your understanding of each other. That is deemed building. You are putting efforts in knowing the people in your team. You know what the other person is going through. You know, what are the problems was the other person is facing in personal or professional life? You all to understand the weaknesses, the strength, the opportunities, and the area of improvements for that particular person. You'll know that this person is not good in this aspect on may require certain additional help. This is how the team has built. If someone is not doing well at a particular day or period of time, you need to push the person you need to motivate, encourage. This is how teams are building. Team-building takes time, team-building takes acknowledgment, lot of efforts informally. So you need to talk more, interact, more, be genuine to people, help them to become better and achieve goals of the organization. So once they started achieving their own post new goals, their organizational goals will be also achieved. But you need to understand every person may not be as good as you want or expect them to work. And this is where the team work comes into picture. For example, you have a team of ten members and out-of-game four of them are below average. And Ford are exceptionally good and to our average, so six people overall are good. They need to push the other four members held them, associate them, push them, and coordinate with them to enhance their performance as well as a team. It is your responsibility to take the team together. And this is how team bonding increases. After the work you are sitting together having great dying. You are meeting with each other on weekends or maybe during the lunchtime you are having the lunch together. So you're developing that born, you're developing that BIM Building ability. Listening to people, having informal interactions plays a very important role and this is what is required for you to bend a team. A team is the responsibility off of the leader, the leader who was leading the team. You have shared vision and sense of purpose. Every person has different sense of purposes and you, as a leader needs to understand Ben, purpose of life. You need to collaborate with them, have a collaborative nature. Empower them, make them scale, make them get to the resources, whatever the required to achieve the targets. The critical success factor for any team is the, is the way you born with each other, the amount of efforts but you need, but you put to make the car team work. Motivation is the key to team success. The goal must be clearly set and informed to all the team members what you need to achieve, how much you need to do, what are the roles and responsibilities? Let's not criticize, condemn, and complain about team members openly because that might create a bad or a negative environment and the team try to do open communication. But if it is required for you to personally go and talk to a person, you take that posted to a different place and have discussion, right? So a team leader alone should not take all the decisions well, if it has critical and only the responsibility of the team member, team leader def, definitely he should. However, it's better to take a collaborative decision in walled people so that they also get a sense of responsibility. And they tried to improve themselves over a period of time. They start contributing towards the betterment of the companies who tried to take lunches together, have some free time, interact, Have fun, play some games, set target for your team members. Always have motivational messages to boost the morale, performance reviews and appraisals play a very, very important role. So try to not have conflicts, resolve them. And if there is a conflict, tried to find a solution which is win-win for both the people trade. So normally a team should have similar sort of sense of orientation towards achieving the goal. They may come from different places, different identities as different skillset, but ultimately their goal should be one. So you need to understand the team members well, you need to understand the objective of the team manager should be clearly defined and conveyed to each and every person. You need to promote effective communication among your team members. Different activities, evens. Bodies or get together should be organized. Leader should be appointed carefully. And if the leader is appointed, the DDA should ensure that his team is united. So it's important to take the feedback of each and every member. Discipline as very, very important for deemed clarity of roles within deem also plays a very important role. If you're building a team, you need to make sure that each and every person knows his or her responsibilities. As a leader, you need to have the ability to give clear assignments and get the work done from the people. So happy team will always have good results. Should not be partial to someone. As a leader, you need to be impartial thing before you speak. You should not add to something which is disrespectful or may cause a conflict. You need to have communication which is positive both in Woburn and written up. You need to give freedom to speak to the people on your team. It's always better than their shoes are discussed openly. Solutions are met. Motivation plays a very important role on a team. You need to set deadline, you need to give targets. You need to celebrate the achievement of the success. You can have cake cutting ceremony. You can take your team to some good party and let them enjoy their time. You should give them incentives, books, and motivate them to give their best. You need to avoid making fun of your own colleagues because that again, will create a negative atmosphere which you would definitely want to avoid doing a Zoom thing. So draw conclusion on your own. Don't overreact on petty things. Don't be disheartened. And you should always encourage your employees to give their best.
