The following strategies may assist you to improve performance in your team:
- Support innovation – encourage the use of new methods, tools and strategies to get to the end result.
- Support leadership – allow the leaders to develop goals and priorities for their teams that support the project.
- Hire the right people – ask the right questions and ensure that you get the best people for the job that have a desire to learn and interact effectively with team members.
- Provide skill development – if team members share an interest in each other’s tasks, share them between team members to provide them with opportunities to learn new skills.
- Stream-line processes – ensure processes are not extreme and prohibitive. Keep processes as simple as possible so that they can be followed.
- Build commitment – use your company’s vision and values to build commitment in team members. Ensure they understand the goals of the business and how they can contribute to those goals.
- Get team members involved in sharing resources – they are at the ground level of the project and know what is required to get the job done.
