As managers will verify, teambuilding works. It's that simple. Teambuilding helps members build on their strengths and minimize their weaknesses. Some careers and businesses flourish, while others flounder. T he complexities of today's business environment require strong foundations, high levels of performance, and the flexibility to deal with change and the multiple concerns that constantly get added to the daily agenda.
Few companies can afford to depend on their past history or performance.
The years ahead will challenge us to surpass both current and foreseeable levels of productivity and effectiveness. T o meet this challenge will require new possibilities for organizational effectiveness. Since it is the people in our organization who determine productivity, generate new ideas, and push for change, it may be that how they see themselves, their jobs, and what is possible has a great deal to do with how effective they are and may in fact determine the success of the organization itself. W hether an organization is out to increase their productivity, undertake a system-wide change effort, or impact the level of communication, teamwork and satisfaction for their employees, the results produced through coaching have been instrumental in the success of these efforts. Remember, to know what is possible tomorrow, you must be willing to step outside of what is possible today.
