In the past Top Teams tended to function like ‘working groups’, focusing on running departments and people where the efficiency of reporting and delegating is more important than doing real work together. While ‘working groups’ are not going away, leadership teams need higher levels of mutual commitment and interdependence to respond flexibly but decisively to the rapid change in their environment. They need to understand what aspects of their own team activity need a higher performance focus, and in those areas model effective team collaboration to others in the organisation.
This programme helps top teams to develop the skills they require for themselves creating and modelling change in the organisation.
What are 4 questions that top teams should be encouraged to ask themselves and how does TCO International help top teams?
