Overview
The complexity of the business environment means that few, if any,
individuals can get things done alone. This is why teams have become
an integral part of today’s organizations.
When they work well, teams of diverse, talented and committed people
can collaborate, share ideas, and formulate sound decisions and
solutions.
On the other hand, teams that don’t work well have partisanship
instead of collaboration, conflict instead of synergy, and competition
instead of cooperation.
There are many reasons why teams don’t excel. Employees who
are asked for the first time to share knowledge, practices and resources
may hold out. The team may not have created a clear charter or norms
for making decisions and resolving conflict. Strained relationships
or differences in personality or style can also impede a team’s
progress.
Ruben Consulting Group (RCG) helps organizations build and sustain
effective teams, from management to production teams. Our expertise
in human and group dynamics is coupled with our own experience on
