This guide outlines strategies for improvement teams to effectively collaborate and address challenges. Key aspects include defining problems jointly, engaging all process owners, and ensuring collective action. Meetings should focus on constructive problem-solving rather than emotional sharing or revisiting past issues. It emphasizes the importance of undivided attention and postponing evaluations to foster a supportive environment for system changes. Celebrating gains and learning from setbacks are crucial for sustained progress. The role of spouses and others in the process is also highlighted to strengthen the team's impact.
