Tip: Managing Teams

Last month we provided a few tips on successful teleworking.  Here are some key tips on Managing Teams.

  1. Train your team. While you may feel that your employees should know their job, training your employees for working on a team will help build successful teams.
  2. Keep your team focused. Putting a team together, and then not following up on their progress is asking for trouble. Instead, install a project management system or some type of follow-up plan that allows you to keep the team focused and on task. Your time will be well-spent; your team will be successful.
  3. Create a timeline. What is your vision? Working with the team, create quarterly touch points. Breaking a project down by quarters makes it easier to reach intermittent goals – assuring success for the overall project.
