What Makes Teams Effective?

A common practice among organizations today is to restructure into self-managed work teams. Consultants are frequently appointed to aid teams in starting and to assist team activities by serving as a coach, facilitator, or resource. It is useful to periodically evaluate the effectiveness of teams in terms of three dimensions once they are established:

  1. Assessing the level of cohesion among group members.
  2. The effectiveness of the assigned support person is being evaluated.
  3. The level of support and encouragement provided by top management to team members. The Assessing Team Effectiveness instrument highlights three crucial elements of behaviors and attitudes that impact a team’s performance. It is possible to assess individual team members or groups to identify areas for improvement in their behaviors and attitudes which could ultimately enhance the team’s overall effectiveness.
