Building blocks of high performing teams

High performing teams, regardless of the industry, are characterised by shared common characteristics. These are:

• Clear and compelling team purpose and objectives
• All team members understand their own role, other team member’s roles and the inter-relationship
• Team members share norms and values as to how work gets done and how they interact with each other
• Effective team communication
• An appropriate blend of team skills and familiarity between team members
