Is your team healthy?

In our experience, teams that excel are generally more “healthy” than those that don’t.

We are experts at creating healthy teams!

In a ‘Healthy’ team

In an ‘Unhealthy’ team

  • The goals and objectives of the team are clearly understood and agreed.
  • People work to their own objectives or don’t have any.
  • There is a free flow of information, formal and informal.
  • People use information as power, or just keep it to themselves.
  • There is energy in the team; people feel committed and involved.
  • There is an atmosphere of lethargy.
  • The boss is seen as a human being and her authority is based on genuine respect.
  • The boss is at best an irritant, at worst a tyrant.
  • Meetings are productive, lively and enjoyable.
  • Meetings, when they happen at all, are inefficient, chaotic and a drag.
  • People take responsibility for jobs beyond their strict job definition.
  • There’s an attitude of “It’s not my job, I’ll do what I’m told and no more”.
  • Openness and honesty in relationships is the norm, not the exception.
  • Distrust is rife; openness and honesty are for the birds. The status quo rules.
  • Individual flair is encouraged but not at the expense of the team.
  • Individual flair means going your own sweet way, regardless.
  • New ideas and approaches are welcomed.   Creativity is valued.
  • “We have always done it this way.  Don’t rock the boat”.
  • People are always looking ahead, predicting problems and opportunities.
  • Firefighting is a way of life.
