Creating Successful Teams; a seminar for leaders/line managers and team leaders

  • Community Waikato 33 Victoria Street Hamilton, Waikato, 3204 New Zealand (map)

Presented by Dr Maureen Marra and InLeadership

It’s in our human DNA - cooperative teamwork out-performs individualism every time! But in our highly individualistic society, maximizing team performance in organisations is one of the major challenges for leaders around the globe. The problem largely stems from misunderstandings about how teams function, and the particular cultural challenges teams face in workplaces. High performing teamwork won’t happen automatically or accidentally. Rather, the success or otherwise of the team is ultimately determined by the actions of the team leader and the team’s culture. Hence, this seminar will outline the role of the leader in fostering the essential elements that create high performing and successful teams.

1.      Leadership, culture and team functioning

2.      Relationships, connectivity and information sharing
