The team leader is the main link between the organization’s goals and the people who are responsible for the daily activities that make those goals a reality. Because of the necessary and integral role that this position plays, it is obvious that good team leaders are key to the success of any organization.
Many everyday decisions required within this role affect the revenue, productivity, service levels as well as attitudes and morale. With a role and function of this magnitude, it would seem logical that the process of becoming a team leader would require years of training. However, most team leaders have had little or no training in the required skills.More often than not, today’s teams leaders are men and women who have been promoted from being a superworker to being a team leader. However with the development of some key skills, the superworker can successfully transition into a super team leader!

A presentation to the Student Government Councils of local universities and colleges in Malaysia was presented by Michael Teoh, surrounding the topics of Teamwork and Leadership.
This workshop for Student Leaders was done back in 2005 and 2006.
I delivered this presentation when I was studying Software Engineering at UTS(Autumn 2010). I was the Project Manager of a team of 20 Software Engineering students and we were developing a Robotic Waste Treament System.
A team that works well together understands the strengths and weaknesses of each team member. One of the benefits of strong teamwork in the workplace is that team leaders and members become proficient at dividing up tasks so they are done by the most qualified people.

En sammanfattning från mitt och David Alers frukostseminarium på Cloud Nine den 5 Oktober 2012. Från basics till framtid, med praktiska exempel på genomförande.
This presentation is about human resource management and the roles and skills of a human resource manager. It covers topics such as team development, team conflicts, emotional intelligence, personality types, and decision-making techniques. It explains the characteristics of high-performing teams and the dysfunctions of low-performing teams. It also provides some methods for resolving conflicts and improving team performance, such as devil’s advocacy and dialectical inquiry.
It's true: You can teach an old dog new tricks.Jenni Proctor
Older people can choose to learn new skills, try new experiences, and undertake completely new challenges. All that is needed is the desire to do so, and the systems, strategies and support to succeed. This webinar was created as part of an Online Marketing Mastermind which we took part in in Costa Rica.
12 Crucial Factors to Career SatisfactionJenni Proctor
Education expands one's career opportunities and skill set but isn't exactly a guarantor of contentment or success. While degrees open doors, they don't necessarily mean a particular position — or even path — will ultimately prove the most viable, comfortable fit. Some pretty basic factors need meeting before true happiness settles in.
Understanding Recruiters: They Stand Between You And Your Future JobJenni Proctor
If you are looking for a new job, chances are high that you will need to meet with a recruiter or two during your job search. It is important to understand what their role is so that you start off with the appropriate expectations.
5 Steps To Regain Your Confidence - You Have ChoicesJenni Proctor
The biggest difference between a confident person and someone who lacks confidence is that the confident person recognises that they have choices and they are prepared to back their decisions. Even if your confidence is still not strong take the time to consider the options that you currently have.
5 Steps To Regain Your Confidence - Courage and WisdomJenni Proctor
Making the decision to change your career requires courage, and making a smooth change requires wisdom, clarity and strategy. Anyone who chooses to change their career will face challenges, and this does not get easier with age. As we face the challenges our confidence can be eroded, bit by bit or through some nasty incident.
Complacency is one of the greatest enemies of the mature worker. If you aren’t growing in your role, learning new skills, open to new and better ways of doing things, you can be sure that someone else around you will be. Often people who are caught unaware by a redundancy recognize, too late to save their job, that they have not proactively adapted within their role or have not been attuned to the politics of what was happening around them.
The world of work has changed dramatically over the last twenty years. Anyone who is 40+ has seen business and employment practices revolutionized, with advantages and disadvantages innate in every major change. People in their 50s and 60s have also witnessed the entire evolution of the information age and the integration of digital technology into every aspect of our lives.
Job Interview From A Child’s PerspectiveJenni Proctor
Before I was a Career Counsellor and Coach I worked as a Teacher Librarian for many years. There were many things I loved about this work, the best part being the kids. I never tired of their fresh outlook on the world, the way they could take an idea and expand it to make it their own.
A study undertaken at Berlin’s Max Planck Institute for Human Development compared the consistency of workplace performance and reliability of older workers aged 65 to 80 years old with younger workers aged 20 – 31 years old.
It seems that the threat of redundancy is circulating in many major companies right now. With that threat comes worry and a massive sense of insecurity. No-one knows what is going to happen. No-one feels that they have any control over the decisions that are being made further up the food chain. Morale declines. Friends and colleagues know that it may come down to "you vs me". It's not a good place to be! For more information visit us at http://boomersnextstep.com
Many people live with the fear of redundancy for months before they experience its reality. Many others fear what might happen, but find that their job is secure.
If you are facing the possibility of redundancy it is important to be prepared. Taking simple steps to be prepared will help you avoid the feeling of things being out of your control. It is empowering to know that you are ready, no matter what happens. This presentation shares 8 simple steps you can take.
Social Media for Career Education and Community Career ServicesJenni Proctor
Social media is an effective way to link students and the community with the career information and support that they need. This presentation was prepared and delivered by Jenni Proctor http://ClarityCareerManagement.com.au for Career Advisors on the Sunshine Coast of Queensland, September 2 2013.
Is your next step a career shift? Over the last few years many people have been affected by severe career shifts caused by redundancy or problems within the company that employed them. For more info, please visit http://ClarityCareerManagement.com.au

20. Collective Decision Making
Discussion then vote = winners and losers
Meeting of minds = consensus
“I might not agree with all the details but I agree with the
broad thrust of the decision.”
Takes longer
Issue is explored fully therefore usually a better
decision
Each team member is more committed to implement
the actions required.

Superficial assessment of options
Risks are not examined thoroughly
Previously rejected options are not re-examined
Adequate high quality information isn’t sought
Contingency plans aren’t prepared

Separate ideas from personalities, facts from
beliefs
Identify options; weigh pros and cons
Steer team towards group conclusion.
23. Leadership in Team Ideas Generation
Brainstorming
Ideas generation – You can’t be creative and
critical at the same time.
Reflect on responses
Evaluate the process
Decide on 2 or 3 ideas that can be implemented
Norm: “Don’t commit if you can’t do it, but if you
do commit you must do it.”
24. Establish Ongoing Team Norms
The Team is still a team even when apart
Sharing best practice – Lifelong learners
Autonomous in own work but still a team player
Keep colleagues informed
Leadership not intrusive but will remind them about
agreed norms.
25. Challenges for Leaders
Give authority and freedom but within agreed
objectives and norms
Get the best out of the team but enable each
individual team member to excel

Seek agreement to make changes
Set goals and action steps with time frames
Periodic discussion to review progress.
Remember: What you overlook you accept!
27. Dealing with Reluctant Team Players
Developmental feedback or motivational feedback if
you get an opportunity.

Have followup discussions
Remember: The organisation’s core values and goals
should come before the individual.

Agree on simple actions and dates for review
