Surveys suggest that over half the employees in an organization have little idea of the strategic direction the organization is heading.
That requires rework, causes inefficiently and ineffectiveness.
The answer this wide-spread problem is to engage your team in a shared purpose and for the leader to walk the talk.
This presentation will assist you to implement these strategies to create a purposeful. rather than purposeless team.
This document discusses the characteristics of high performing teams. It identifies eight key characteristics: building trust, sharing leadership, being agile, creating purpose, managing stakeholders, improving systems, utilizing diversity, and learning continuously. Examples of tools for developing high performing teams include determining a team's purpose, conducting after action reviews, and taking action to improve based on one characteristic discussed in training. The document provides an overview of a training program on leading teams that covers the characteristics, stages of development, tools, roles, conflict management, and culture.
Do your team members know the extent and limits of the boundaries for them to display their initiative to get the work done?
This might be dealing with customers, stakeholders, prioritizing their work, or designing better ways to complete their work.
If people are unsure of their boundaries, they freeze and do nothing except become reactive.
Communicating the boundaries of when initiative is welcome, and when it is not, creates a sense of psychological safety for people at work to be empowered.
This presentation explores what the leader needs to do (and not do) to develop these boundaries and the expectations necessary for independent judgment to flourish.

G.R.O.W. is the most powerful coaching model available to get the employee to take full responsibility for their development.
Most coaching sessions are too much telling and they are ineffective and a waste of time. Good coaching is essentially about asking good questions.
The GROW coaching method is the best coaching method. It centers on asking a set of structured questions to help the coachee become more empowered.
This presentation shows you how to apply GROW to improve your coaching sessions and assist the coachee to take responsibility for their actions.
A full description of GROW can be found in my book, WINNING TEAMS: The Eight Characteristics of High Performing Teams.
This document discusses managing employee performance remotely. It notes that remote work is increasing and presents challenges like unclear expectations and less opportunity for in-person check-ins. However, most performance issues are due to systems and interactions, not employee capacity. To manage remotely, leaders must create clear expectations, interactions to build relationships, and credibility through demonstrated competence. Communication tools, frequent feedback, and clear goals are important. Leaders should also avoid micromanaging and recognize good performance.
This document discusses the four stages of team development: forming, storming, norming, and performing. In the forming stage, the team acts as individuals and lacks clarity around their purpose and roles. In the storming stage, conflict arises as people establish their roles. In the norming stage, there is consensus around roles and responsibilities. In the performing stage, the team has a clear strategy and vision and can work autonomously. The leader's role and skills needed change across each stage to help the team progress to the next level.
Feedback is the breakfast of champions. This session looks at the practical considerations that enable leaders to give powerful feedback that reinforces or changes behaviour. What are the do’s and don’ts when giving team members feedback that make a difference?

However, both the employee and manager are frustrated because they believe the other to be at fault.
What causes this frustration?
What are the circumstances that cause the proactive paradox?
Why is being compliant and reactive behavior favored over using independent judgment?
We consider this dynamic in this presentation.

The 6-unit program covers giving effective feedback, having performance boosting conversations, dealing with conflict, facilitating meetings, influencing others, and leading change. It provides guidelines and frameworks for difficult conversations, including feedback on poor performance and the Five Conversations Framework to improve employee engagement through regular check-ins. Sample questions are given to start conversations in each area of the framework. Benefits of the framework include ongoing dialogue, openness, flexibility, timely information, and a more relaxed approach.
Feedback is the breakfast of champions. Feedback should be a conversation; I dialogue, not a monologue. In this video we consider the principles of feedback.
Assessing candidate’s potential, regardless of whether they’re within or outside the firm, is increasingly more important in a dynamic workplace. In a changing work setting, future potential is more valuable than past experience.
Experience still counts. But future potential is becoming increasingly important.
HR still relies on the behavioral interviewing technique. "Can you explain a time when you had to do ... " is a typical approach.
How then do we assess people based on their future potential? Is it reliable?
With the world transforming at a dizzying rate, beyond apparent major trends, it’s tricky to predict what the future holds. What’s worked in the past is therefore no guarantee that it will work in the future. With the relentless intrusion of AI, the way jobs are done is constantly transforming. Some jobs are disappearing. Some jobs are emerging. In this milieu, future potential rather than past competency is a more prized.
This short webinar will provide you with some practical ways of assessing future potential.
This information comes from Dr Tim Baker's forthcoming book, "The Future of Human Resources: Unlocking Human Potential."
Dr. Tim Baker, according to international coaching gutru, Marshall Goldsmith, is one of the world’s leading HR experts. In this short presentation, Tim introduces the 13 mindsets that need changing.
He acknowledges that many companies are in transit between the current and new thinking. It’s undoubtedly true too that a small number of businesses have made a successful shift to the necessary future states. And also there are many companies who are stuck in old thinking.
For example, they may have abolished their traditional appraisal system and moved to a process of regular developmental conversations between managers and team members (Shift 11). But that same company may still be wedded to selecting new hires solely based on their past experience and not developed a process to assess future potential (Shift 1). Regardless of where your organization may sit, the model gives you a useful tool to evaluate your HR practices in the context of the employee lifecycle.
This material comes from Dr. Tim Baker's new book, "The Future of Human Resources: Unlocking Human Potential."
This document provides guidance for a conversation around innovation and continuous improvement in the workplace. It introduces the topic and outlines four questions to discuss ideas for enhancing efficiency and effectiveness: 1) suggestions for improvement, 2) how it enhances the workplace, 3) barriers to implementation, and 4) where to start. Tips are provided for both the coachee and coach to make the conversation constructive, respectful, and focused on equal, open-minded discussion rather than performance review.
Do you want to boost performance, build trust, enhance engagement, and create a culture of conversation?
The Five Conversations Framework is based on five themed conversations that you have with each of your people, one theme per month, for five months out of six. This means that each topic is covered twice in a year, helping you review their development easily.
A conversation with your team member should last around 15 minutes, and focus on one of the following themes:
Climate Review: To measure her job satisfaction and morale.
Strengths and Talents: To identify and develop her innate abilities.
Opportunities for Growth: To improve her performance and standards.
Learning and Development: To identify and support future learning opportunities.
Innovation and Continuous Improvement: To improve her own and your team's effectiveness in line with business needs.
This approach comes from Dr. Tim Baker's latest book, "The Future of Human Resources: Unlocking Human Potential."
More research is emerging that the key to high-performing teams is the effectiveness of the relationship dimension within the team. Yet, it is the task dimension that gets the most focus in teams. Join me to identify the three elements of the relationship dimension that makes all the difference and how this can be harnessed.
What are these three elemets and how can they be cultivated to move a team from a mediocre performing to high performing team?
This information comes from Dr. Tim Baker's book, "Winning Teams: The Eight Characteristics of High Performing Teams.
What is team identity and why is it critical for team success?
Join me to discover the three key factors that make up team identity and how these factors can be boosted by the team leader to accelerate performance.
Team identity is the extent to which a team member identifies with the team they belong to, rather than the organization. It is not the same as team cohesion. All high performing teams have a healthy team identity.
Not only will you have a better understanding of the attributes of team identity, you will have the practical steps to shape this.
The content from this session comes from Dr. Tim Baker's latest book, "WINNING TEAMS: The Eight Characteristics of High Performing Teams".
The document discusses facilitating effective team debriefing. It recommends using an After-Action Review (AAR) structure to review projects. An AAR focuses on what systems worked well, what didn't, and how to improve for the future. It also discusses building team identity to enhance performance. The document promotes a book by Dr. Tim Baker on using AARs and developing team identity, and provides a link to register for an upcoming online seminar on the topic.
In our outrageously busy world we don't have time to attend to improving how our team functions. And when we do find time, it's usually because of a crisis and then the need to change is a necessity.
We have plenty of time to work in the business, but not on the business. When was the last time you took time out to look under the bonnet of the car? When was the last time you downed tools and looked at team improvements?
All high performing teams are in a constant state of improvement.
Continuous improvement doesn't need to take up too much time and can make a huge difference to performance.
Learn a simple tool for continuous improvement that can be applied with powerful results that will massively improve performance.
This information comes from Dr. Tim Baker's book, "WINNING TEAMS: The Eight Characteristics of High Performing Teams."
There are two dimensions of teamwork: task and relationships. The distinguishing feature of all high performing teams is high trust, strong engagement, and clear communication between team members. Yet, most team leaders spend very little time on the relationship dimension of teamwork.
Most team problems can be traced back to a simple misunderstanding, communication breakdown, or relationship malfunction. It’s the people-dimension—not the task-dimension—that continually challenges team leaders.
We will explore the eight characteristics of high performing teams and how to assess you team against these research-based characteristics.
This information comes from Dr. Tim Baker book, WINNING TEAMS: The Eight Characteristics of High Performing Teams.
The After-Action Review is one of the most powerful learning tools known. It doesn't take much time and can reap brilliant results.
About this event
Debriefs are a golden opportunity to learn from mistakes and capitalize of successes. But they happen too infrequently. Busyness gets in the way.
The most powerful debriefing methodology is the After-Action Review (AAR). But unfortunately it is often used as a box ticking exercise.
An well executed AAR can be a rich learning exercise for the team. By using it to collaborate with the team, the team will readily adhere to the key learnings because it is fresh in their minds, relevant and practical, and because the team leader has adopted the practice of shared leadership. It's not time consuming and very effective.
This presentation explains how to use the AAR for maximum impact. This technique is covered in detail in Dr Tim Baker's book, WINNING TEAMS: The Eight Characteristics of High Performing Teams.
The document discusses how to frame feedback for maximum effect by providing specific, timely feedback focused on the future in a private setting. It recommends emphasizing strengths as well as weaknesses, seeking causes, and avoiding confrontation. It also advertises an upcoming webinar on managing expectations and offers a discounted book on feedback and engagement.
Feedback is challenging face-to-face. But remote feedback is even more challenging.
About this event
Giving feedback can be challenging in any situation. But remote feedback has its own challenges, whether it's positive or constructive. This webinar canvasses a few of main challenges.
The obvious difficulty is that you’re not in the same physical space. Although some managers might think that’s positive! Furthermore, you don’t have a first-hand observation of what your team member is doing, or not doing. So how does one get feedback under these conditions?
It’s natural for constructive feedback to have a stronger emotional reaction then positive feedback. We tend to ruminate more over criticism, even if its constructive.
Given the additional stress that people are facing with Covid-19, negative feedback becomes even more tricky to give and receive. During this pandemic, employees are easily going to feel defensive when they receive criticism.
This webinar is based on Dr. Tim Baker's latest book, "Mastering Feedback: A Practical Guide for Better Leadership Conversations."
Giving feedback is an art and science. But there are several elements that can make the difference.
About this event
Surveys constantly show that employees want more feedback from their managers. Furthermore, the surveys suggest that employees want more constructive as well as positive feedback. Often managers are reluctant to give more feedback because of a fear that it won't be received the right way by the recipient.
Studies show that more feedback leads to higher levels of engagement.
This webinar explores several key elements that are critical for feedback to be effective. They are simple to implement and will make a significant difference in its impact, if done by the manager.
