THE ESSENTIALS OF COLLABORATION
There are several things that you can take away from this post. Here are some practical ideas about collaboration.
Collaboration is not something that happens naturally. We have to work for it and it can be complicated. Let's take a look at some collaboration practices and how we can optimize our work for success.
DYNAMIC TEAMS
We all want dynamic teams where people work together to make things happen. There are many ways to create this. Let's take a look at some ideas on how we can do it.
AGILE TEAMS A higher-order team (HOT) is one that plays the product. This team is made up of people who know more than one area of expertise and everything in-between. This is a kind of team that a company can really depend on to get things done. This might not be something that any of you are worried about in the moment, but it is important to think about because it affects how we move forward as a team. It is important not only for individual performance, but also for productivity and output.
FOCUSED TEAMS A focused team has people from across the spectrum who understand how their work interacts with other areas in the company's work on other projects. Focused teams are typically smaller and tend to work better than more homogeneous teams.
WORKING WITH THE RIGHT PEOPLE
Think about the right people you need to work with in order to be successful. You could be working with the wrong people and having an impact on the wrong things. It is easy to get distracted or distracted by others when we are anxious or nervous about something. This is great if your work comes from a place of passion, but if it doesn't, it will be much harder to get things done. Work collaboratively and surround yourself with people who understand your project and who work well together.
APPLYING FOR MOMENTUM When we feel like we are under a lot of pressure, there can be moments where it all seems like too much. We have all felt this way at some point, and when we do it is important to remember that it is only a moment of time. We can have many moments of productive work when we find ways to turn these moments around and use them to our advantage.
