Despite all the changes and upheaval in the American companies lately, the one thing everyone agrees on is that we are in a new economic age where the old ways of doing things no longer work. We have to learn new methods that involve maintaining high-performance teams. High-performance teams are best suited to compete during these times, because they can react quickly to change. They can deliver higher quality and better customer service. They can work on multiple levels to improve motivation, satisfaction and productivity of workers.
Teams can constantly learn, self-correct, and respond to opportunities.
In a fast changing world, skills become obsolete very quickly, so constant updating and technical knowledge is critical, as are skills for effective team membership. As people constantly learn and teams examine how they operate and self-correct for improvements, they can best respond to opportunities.
