Teamwork is an important ingredient of modern day employment. Research suggests that the time devoted to teamwork has increased by 50 percent in the last two decades. Companies need to adapt to these trends and learn how to collaborate efficiently in order to succeed in a complex global market.
A number of studies have identified the advantages of teamwork development at the workplace. Among these are:
- Quick identification of errors: when working as a team, employees notice mistakes faster and find better solutions.
- Excellent outcomes: teamwork produces better outcomes, while employees report higher levels of job satisfaction.
- High profitability: close collaboration between employees helps drive a company’s profitability.
Our different stages of team development:
- Psychological assessment of team members,
- Identifying the current level of a team’s progress,
- Finding and effecting the most suitable improvements based on the needs of the team.
We devote special attention to transfer of knowledge and agreement keeping to everyday activities. Behaviour change and accepting novelties are often challenging for people. This is why we have developed an approach for introducing new behaviours into practice in a structured manner, while monitoring one’s own development.
