In today's organizations, work gets done through teams, making them key to strategic and operational success. What separates standout teams—regardless of type or level of responsibility—from the pack? What drives and sustains their performance? How can teams become great in the face of obstacles ranging from leaders who don't "get it" to team members who choose not to "get with" the required high-performance behaviors? And what lessons can HR professionals learn from their peers who have played key roles in moving teams to dramatically higher levels of performance? You will come away from this session knowing the five elements that HR must ensure are in place for a team to ratchet up its performance. You will also receive practical tips to help every team in your organization break though silo thinking, manage conflict, and transform itself from a leader-centered team to a team of leaders.
