This week, I'm going to start a six-part series on the characteristics of highly effective teams. I'll give you an overview of all five steps today. Then, in each of the next five episodes, we'll go into more depth about each of the steps. The goal is to give you practical tips and techniques that you can use each week to help you build a solid team within your organization, family, and community.

The power of highly effective teams lies in their capacity to perform at levels that are greater than the sum of their parts. Managers and leaders put a great deal of effort into assembling high-performing teams. These leaders also spend considerable resources to ensure those teams reach their potential.

Obviously, managers want to make improvements that lead to positive changes within the team. In fact, many leaders focus just on this part of the leadership process.

However, sometimes it is helpful to take a step back in order to recognize when a team is working effectively. Managers often overlook this important part of this process. The workings of a highly effective team are not always obvious or intuitive to everyone. We sometimes don’t recognize our team members when a team is doing well.
