Managing or participating in a team-based work environment can be either
exhilarating or exasperating. Given the potential benefits and pitfalls of using
teams, when should you use them, how do you choose team members who will
accomplish a goal in the most effective manner, and how do you manage them to
deliver successful results?
This program enables you to manage team dynamics in a manner that establishes
a productive work environment, delivers high performance, and fosters creative
ideas.
This program was recently
highlighted in the
Business Week article
Tomorrow's B-School?
It Might Be A D-School.
Teams have
a vast capacity to drive an organization beyond its boundaries. When managed
well, teams stimulate creativity and innovation, make an organization more
adaptive to market forces, and tap into a firm's intellectual resources to drive breakthrough results.
Managing Teams for Innovation and Success approaches team building at the strategic
level. Participants evaluate not only the structure and
management of high-performance teams, but also whether it is appropriate to use
teams or individuals to most effectively accomplish a given goal. Participants
also explore team dynamics from the perspectives of both team leaders and team
members in order to build a deeper understanding of the implications of
management decisions.
- Strategies for building high-performing teams and eliminating obstacles to
effective teamwork
- Tools to define and communicate manager and team member roles
- Methodologies to manage the complexities of group dynamics, including
decision making, power, and conflict
 Great program! The combination of such a diverse group of business leaders and thought-provoking teaching techniques have made this an intellectually stimulating experience. This program will be a powerful tool for encouraging teamwork in my company.
