Do employees within your organization work together as a team or as individuals in isolation?  Many nonprofits, especially those that are understaffed, must make use of every employee's expertise and experience.  Explore the definition of "team." Is a true team really necessary? Capitalize on each team member's analytical and organizational abilities.

Topics to be covered include:

• The four "C's" of effective teams
• Why competition can be self-defeating
• Seven critical attributes for effective team performance
• How to get a team started
• Team/member assessment
• How to effectively train team members
• Developing an effective team checklist
• Learning the levels of "teaming"
• Maintaining momentum by evaluating/improving team effectiveness

This is a required workshop in the Human Resource Generalist Certificate Program.
