How do you restore or improve trust on a team?
If the trust was lost then it must have been there at some point, even a little bit. The people on the team know what that trust looked like. Perhaps they just need to be reminded of what they did to create that trust in the 1st place.
The work of the team is not getting done.
This manifests in an Executive and Project-Manager stating “they just aren’t working together”, “we have some strong personalities and things are not getting done”, and “the same damn thing happens, why can’t they just work as a team?”… Systems-Drive-Behaviors and here are 4 system solutions for team problems.
Having commitment results in role clarity and all team members knowing what role they play and what role the others play in achieving the goal; sufficient allocation of resources to remain committed; decision get made because the team members are committed and know the roles of the team.
When you have set the foundation and are sure that the delegation is appropriate and you are able to see how this delegation assignment is meant to increase your managerial-leadership leverage AND develop the employee WHILE freeing up time for the discretionary areas of judgment…then the solution to effective delegation happens.
Examining and learning how to develop functional organizational systems that attract trust; peoples ability to work with complexity; teams to function and be productive keeping people engaged and wanting to continue to do great work and stay on that team; plus allowing and placing managers in the position of truly adding value to employees, teams, and the organizations…is what will drive continued success for years to come.
