Teams work less in traditional ‘silos specialism’ in today’s world, and more interdependently in matrix or cross-functional groups. Yet engagement, performance and productivity are often low. Leading temporary teams to collaborate effectively to deliver a shared goal, feel safe to raise concerns, making share decisions and be innovative to manage risk and solve problems, is critical to leading in today’s world.

Benefits:

  • Explore your challenges to lead effective temporary teams in a collaborate way.
  • Understand the difference between a task team and a temporary team, and the associated challenges.
  • Identify barriers to cross-functional teams working collaboratively and successfully.
  • Explore and practice the four-pillars of effective team collaboration to overcome barriers to effective teamworking.
  • Explore leadership of collaborative teams in a safe environment to learn.

At the PMA we pride ourselves on the understanding that one size doesn’t fit all and – therefore, we have various formats of our workshops and can adapt any programme / agenda to suit your local needs and necessaries – so, please get in touch to discuss your requirements.
