Jan 01 2017 The Secret to Successful Team Work |

Teamwork
sounds easy, yet this can be the hardest part of each day at work. Teamwork
within the workplace not only benefits your workers but also significantly
affects your company. Many
times throughout the year you may be asked to join a team with your coworkers
to achieve a goal the company or your supervisor may have set to be
accomplished. You are given a time line and the objectives. Effective
teamwork really depends on the team members and the skills of each individual.
The skill sets are determined of each team player and they are strategically
placed for the success of the team and the project goal. Leaders of the team
inform the team members of their specific roles and the expectations regarding
their personal contributions to the team processes. It is very important also
that the leadership reinforces the right behavior by promoting employees who
are exhibiting the attributes that are important to the team's success. In our credit department have been reading some really great books as a group.
We meet once a month after we have read the chapters necessary for the upcoming
meeting and each month one of us gives the breakdown of the chapters to have
been read and discussed. One of these
books was entitled The Speed of Trust by Stephen M.R. Covey. The book
discusses matching We

are our natural gifts and strengths. Attitudes represent our paradigms or our
ways of seeing as well as our ways of being. Skills are our proficiencies or
the things that we can do very well. Knowledge represents our learning,
insight, understanding and awareness. Style represents our unique approach and,
of course, our individual personality. These are all a part of what is called
our capabilities or our means to produce results. By breaking them down into
components, we are we able to look and explore them independently and
interdependently. The
Speed of Trust is one of my favorite books from the ones we have read so
far as I have learned much about myself and how to work with others in a group
by having trust in myself and my team. When
people work together in an atmosphere of trust and accountability toward a
common goal, they tend to put aside turf issues and politics and focus on the
tasks set before them. Trust in yourself and your team is necessary and reading
this book truly helps with the tools needed to work and perform as a solid
team.
