  1. Team Development Team cohesion

  2. Team cohesion • Team cohesion is the process of team bonding. • It is what makes the team stick together and achieve their goals even when everyone is tired, under pressure or experiencing difficulties. • Features that encourage team cohesion: • Clear vision and team understanding • Clear goals • Role satisfaction • Positive work environment • Positive and cooperative relationships

  3. Features that encourage team cohesion • Clear vision and team understanding • The team needs a clear idea of why it exists and how they are indented to work together. • With out this it is aimless and it will be harder to bond. • Clear goals • Must have SMART targets which it will strive to achieve in unity. • Each member should have individual targets to. • This makes sure all team members pull their weight and contribute equally to the team. • Roles satisfaction • You must have satisfaction in your role and feel valued and needed. • Roles should be clear or this can hurt team bonding.

  4. Features that encourage team cohesion • Positive work environment • The team environment should be positive and happy. • You need a keen sense of humour to work in teams and there should be the opportunity for socialising and laughter. • Some teams like having a unique identity within a larger organisation. • Positive and cooperative relationships • Team members need to rely on and trust each other. • Personal respect and trust can promote team cohesion. • If team members genuinely like each other then they will preform better and there is a better chance of less conflict.

  5. Team cohesion • Team cohesion has several key features to it: • Defining team goals • Resolving conflict • Group turnover • Opportunities for career progression • Recognition of contribution

  6. Defining team goals • A team must have clear goals so they have something to aim for and each member will know what their role is.

  7. Group conflict • Conflict is unavoidable in any team. • There are many different types of conflict: • Interpersonal • Choosing a goal • How to resolve a goal • Conflict is not always a bad thing. • Conflict can be a tremendous help to some teams as it can challenge old ideas and bring forward new and innovative ones. • Resolving conflict can sometimes make a team stronger. • It is always better to resolve conflict rather than to leave it to harm individuals or the team.

  8. Resolving conflict positively • This can have several benefits for a team, including: • An increased understanding of other team members • Using constructive discussion can help improve an individuals awareness of the points of view and needs of others. • Improved team cohesion • If problem can be resolved constructively it can strengthen the team. Individuals can develop more respect for each other and have faith in each others ability to complete a task. • Increased self-awareness • It can help people to explore their own motivation and help them to understand why they behave in a certain way and how this affects performance.

  9. Group turnover • People can and do move teams. • Low turnover will allow a group to bond and learn about each other, thus creating team cohesion. • However, new members bring in fresh ideas that others may not have considered.

  10. Opportunities for career progression • Individuals can be motivated by knowing there is a promotion at some point. • Rewards also help motivation and team rewards can help cohesion. • Recognising contribution • No one like to thinks that their hard work goes unnoticed. The leader should recognise hard work and reward the individual / team accordingly.
