Organizations assemble teams to complete projects on a temporary basis or as a permanent fixture in a department. The projects may include reducing scrap or waste, increasing safety, or developing a new process for the company. A team must have a leader to operate efficiently. The leader provides one voice that directs the activities of all members. While the group does work together to achieve the team goals, only one leader can guide the group toward that end. An efficient team requires short-term and long-term goals. Each member of the team must have a clear understanding of the group goals and the steps to achieve those goals. Team members must have feedback on their performance when completing tasks. Each team member can correct his performance only when he understands the areas that require improvement. The leader should evaluate the team and its performance as a group to work out problems as they occur. For example, a leader should address conflicts between team members as soon as possible to prevent damage to the morale of the group. A team with high morale works for the good of the group to accomplish the project goals.
Create a reasonable timeline for the project and offer rewards for meeting benchmarks. For example, a project manager for a software development team might divide the task into three phases: design, coding, and testing. You likely have a clear vision for how you want the project to proceed, but they might have important insights you lack. If you ignore the team’s opinions, the members will lose motivation as it becomes clear you are disconnected from their on-the-ground experiences. Be empathetic when you see the signs of exhaustion. While threats and intimidation might spur the team momentarily, tired and worn employees benefit more from a chance to recharge and regroup. Maintain a positive atmosphere by highlighting the significant progress already made and by encouraging your team to view the problems as temporary and fixable.
