MindTools has a great article to help project managers (or any manager) build high performing teams and increase productivity through better relationships. Coaching for Team Performance outlines the benefits of team coaching and explains the importance of team dynamics. It’s written to help you develop an established team with a solid foundation to build upon and shows how team members can gain useful insight by trying to understand each others perspectives and see each other differently.
If you’re looking for ways to develop and grow your team in a positive direction, check out this excerpt:
Coaching to improve team performance can need different approaches for different teams and different people. What works for one team may not necessarily work for another.
Effective working relationships are built by understanding team members’ needs, preferences, and styles of work. By helping people understand their own styles and appreciate the different styles of others, you can work with them to change their behaviors and use everyone’s strengths.
The process of improving team performance takes time, and it may involve looking deeper than team processes. Organizational systems – like reward and recognition, performance management, and training – may need to be addressed as well.
However, the end result of this work is usually well worth it improved collaboration and communication will benefit the organization as whole.
