Management and Teams

Teamwork is the backbone of any enterprise. To be precise and more practical i can recommend the following points

1. The team leader should be a seasoned professional who can manage and guide the team members towards the common goal of the enterprise.
2. Responsibilities to be clearly defined via a responsibility matrix.
3. There should be regular meetings once in a week with concerned team members to listen their concerns and challenges.
4. Training program for potential employees to be in place . Let employee select the program himself and company can sponsor that.
5. Appropriate appraisal & reward program to be in place.
6. Regular get together over lunch/dinner at least once in a month. But No formal discussions about work.
7. In case of mistakes/issues, the root cause to be analyzed and concerned members to be questioned in private. Avoid pointing out individuals in public.
8.Verbal appreciation for any completed task.

At end, "I am me and my circumstance' were words of the Spanish philosopher Ortega y Gasset.
