\"\"Team building is not all about weekends away in the Lake District building rafts & swinging through the trees. Effective Managers employ simple everyday methods to build team performance. Here are 10 tips for great team building:-<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Do as I do not as I say<\/strong>. – If you ask team members to carry out tasks you either cannot or wouldn’t do yourself you will quickly lose respect.<\/li>\n
  2. Eliminate the blame culture<\/strong> – Organizations which have an overwhelming blame culture are unproductive & waste energy. Avoid blaming others, especially in public, and seek to improve your own performance & those of your team.<\/li>\n
  3. Open & Honest Feedback<\/strong> – is to be encouraged. If you want to question a team members performance it must be done in private & in an open, honest manner. Be prepared to hear things you don’t want to hear but don’t be afraid to point out weaknesses you feel need to be rectified.<\/li>\n
  4. Don’t delegate irresponsibly<\/strong> –\u00a0 by overloading your team or passing off un-savoury tasks you don’t fancy doing yourself. This will only create resentment & lower morale.<\/li>\n
  5. Get your hands dirty<\/strong> – now & then, the team will really appreciate it – and so will you.<\/li>\n
  6. “Big Up” your team<\/strong> – to Senior Management instead of taking the credit yourself.<\/li>\n
  7. Have an “open door” policy –<\/strong> to listen to people’s personal problems, it will be much appreciated.<\/li>\n
  8. Show Leadership<\/strong> – by taking responsibility for failure as well as success.<\/li>\n
  9. Treat others as you would have them treat you<\/strong> – it’s obvious but the best advice normally is.<\/li>\n
  10. Celebrate Success<\/strong> – buy the drinks, cakes – whatever<\/strong><\/em> but celebrate that win !<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
