Team Building
"Teamwork is the ability to work together toward a common vision. It is the fuel that allows common people to attain uncommon results."
-- Andrew Carnegie
Organizational challenges
To any successful company, teamwork is so critical that it is virtually impossible to achieve those challenging goals without having high performing teams throughout the organization.
Patrick Lencioni in his book "The Five Dysfunctions of a Team" suggests what occurs if you do not have a team that is focused on results.
The team not focused on results:
- Stagnates and fails to grow
- Rarely defeat competitors
- Loses achievement oriented employees
- Encourages team members to focus on their own careers and individual goals
- Is easily distracted
