Uniting the People Who Make a Difference
Building Wisdom in Teams
There are various team development theories. The theorists who specialize
in explaining the development of teams, and those who focus on application,
all agree that team development is an evolutionary process that begins
with the individual. Developing a high performance team is a journey that
requires sound leadership, a trustworthy environment, sufficient knowledge,
and skills to perform competently.
Extraordinary teams are a direct result of understanding respectful communications,
appreciating differences, sharing commitments, exchanging information,
taking responsibility, and participating. Most important is understanding
that one does not have to sacrifice individuality to contribute to a high
performance team. This session focuses on creating a teamwork environment
