How not to let a lack of teamwork hold your team back from success!
Have you ever experienced a lack of effective teamwork that really starts to drag down your team at work? Not only does a lack of teamwork impact relationships, it also has a huge negative impact on your team’s overall success.
So, what do you do if your team isn’t working together effectively?

Share the spotlight and celebrate
People need to get the recognition they deserve for the great work that they’re doing. It’s demotivating when you’re putting a lot of hard work and energy into something, but nobody recognizes it.
Whether you’re leading the team or you’re simply a team member, you can make a point of recognizing when others are doing good work and celebrating milestones.
Even if it’s just a simple email or comment, it makes all the difference when everyone begins to recognize the positive things that are happening.

Project Management tools
Projects are all about your team and how they perform. If you want an effective team, you need to start adopting project management techniques and tools to help you!
You don’t necessarily need to be in a project to use project management tools. Project management tools, techniques, and skills can be implemented effectively on a variety of tasks.
For example, you can use a scope template for any team initiative to highlight some important aspects of what you’re doing in order to make it clearer and more focused. This helps your team become more effective because they’re not left guessing at what has to be delivered; rather, it’s all clearly laid out.
