Teamwork comes with challenges. When you understand what teams need to succeed — and address team needs in every phase of collaborating together — you can improve team performance.
Collaboration training is key to organizational success because it provides team members with tools to work together more effectively toward common goals.
But when teams don’t work together well, energy is depleted, productivity is lost, and performance lags.
Ineffective teams are often caused by a lack of clarity about outcomes, inadequate governance processes or information-sharing, and turf wars. Problems with teamwork are often tied to lack of trust. Without trust, people operate out of fear. Eliminate that fear, and teams gain productive energy, creativity, speed, and better results.
Fixing a team’s problems isn’t a one-person job. Team members need to feel a sense of ownership over how the team operates. At the same time, team leaders must be willing to show humility, change behavior, problem-solve, and take on the hard work of dealing with differences. Team leader training programs can prepare managers to address what isn’t working on teams, view trust as a must-have resource, and model behaviors that support team principles.
Our proven team leader training programs and team collaboration training solutions equip people managers and team members to turn team values into agreed-upon behaviors — which become the foundation for mutual trust, respect, and higher team performance.
When teams effectively self-govern and team leaders commit to fostering a culture of trust and collaboration, the building blocks are in place for team success and stronger organizational performance.

Teamwork comes with challenges. When you understand what teams need to succeed — and address team needs in every phase of collaborating together — you can improve team performance.
Why invest in team-building and collaboration? Because highly collaborative teams directly impact your organization’s productivity and bottom line.
Watch this webinar as we discuss how organizations can leverage solutions focused on team-building skills for leaders that can improve collaboration and produce better results.
Given the rise of remote and hybrid work, effective virtual collaboration has never been more important. Success requires more than technological solutions – interpersonal skill development is critical, too.
For a team to succeed, all members should move in the same direction. Take some time upfront to agree on a team charter so you can define your purpose and track your objectives.
In a team, every member plays a role that either helps or hinders progress. Learn some helpful communications tools so you can be a teamwork activator instead of a blocker.
Team leader training lays the groundwork for success and strong performance, and enhances team collaboration skills, by equipping people leaders to reduce conflict, increase productivity, and speed up decision-making. Effective team leader training develops self-awareness, interpersonal skills, emotional intelligence, and the ability to acknowledge and resolve conflict. The result is improved team collaboration and trust.
Becoming a better team leader requires having candid conversations about what is and isn’t working, viewing trust as a must-have resource, and insisting on behaviors that support collaborative principles. With intentional effort, team leaders can improve virtual collaboration across the organization and build stronger, more cohesive teams, even if they’re not co-located. Additionally, organizations that are looking to enhance their teams’ collaboration skills and to build more trusting cultures can equip their people managers with the skills they need to succeed by offering them access to development, such as our research-based team leader training programs, available either online or in-person.
An organization that values teamwork will intentionally leverage technology to facilitate group communication in real time and ensure its people have opportunities for development. This is typically provided through access to team leader training for individuals and team collaboration training for groups. Also, many organizations may work to ensure that their teams are an optimal size, giving employees a chance to devote more time to less projects, thereby boosting engagement and productivity.
