Definition of a Team

A team is a small group of people, usually fewer than 20, with complementary skills committed to a common purpose and a set of specific performance goals.

Its members are committed to working with each other to achieve the team's purpose and hold each other fully and jointly accountable for the results.

The Leadership Challenge

A leader wishing to establish strong performance standards across the organisation must also focus on performance - ceaselessly.

Effective leaders develop effective teams by making clear and consistent demands that reflect the needs of customers, shareholders and employees and holding themselves and the organisation accountable for their achievement.

Team Building and Leadership are interwoven, dynamic and ever changing. The flow generally begins with self leadership. Once an individual has confidence and vision, others will follow. Now you have a team!
