Success for organizations today demands exceptional team work and co-operation. When a team works together co-operatively and efficiently, its achievements and impact can be extraordinary!

Particularly in times of change and organizational transformation, stress and pressure can lead to unproductive behaviors which impact the entire organization. The challenges in maximizing team work outcomes can also be particularly difficult to master for virtual, culturally diverse and/or cross-functional teams and for high-level leadership teams, with

• People pulling in different directions
• Good ideas, insufficient follow-through/lack of discipline
• Divergent forces based on diverse organizational understanding
• Fear of conflict, not confronting the real issues
• Hidden agendas standing in the way to achieving team performance
• Not enough anticipation
• Lack of courage to challenge status quo and face implications
