Description
The way in which a team is built is an important factor in determining team success. Leading a team quickly and smoothly into high performance mode requires the groundwork of pulling the right team together, setting team goals and defining the standards of team behavior. You'll need to develop the team culture early on by establishing team member competencies and working to improve team dynamics and performance. Team members should be able to communicate with you and with one another so clear channels of communication are required for both on-site and virtual teams. You'll also need to be able to quickly recognise conflict, diagnose its cause and use strategies to resolve any issue. Finally, while the diversity inherent in cross-functional teams can present challenges, learning how to successfully manage cross-functional teams is worth the reward.
