You're struggling to keep your team members on the same page. How can you get everyone working together?

As metáforas para trabalho em equipe funcionam muito bem para mostrar à equipe que, apesar das diferenças existentes entre cada membro, se cada um assumir suas responsabilidades e contribuir para que a engrenagem organizacional funcione adequadamente, o crescimento empresarial e o ambiente positivo será consequência. Com isso, mostrando o porquê de cada integrante fazer parte da equipe, valorizando individualmente, além de enaltecer a importância, acabará também conquistando-o para a efetividade nas tarefas. E, aí sim, será possível mostrar quais são os objetivos e o plano de trabalho traçado, culminando com troca de ideias efetiva.

Según mi experiencia, el primer paso es alinear a las personas del equipo de trabajo con el objetivo. El objetivo debe ser común a todos y se deben poder medir los avances en el transcurso del tiempo. Es fundamental poder dar claridad desde el inicio de la hoja de ruta a recorrer, y sobre esa base permitir opiniones o sugerencias constructivas al equipo. Una vez acordados los pasos a seguir y consensuado con el equipo, se debe mantener con convicción el plan definido. No se deben permitir desvíos o críticas no constructivas una vez que todos acordaron el plan de acción.

I'd say this is the most critical and crucial part. You should let your team know clearly what is expected from them and at the same time its your responsibility to inform them what they would get in return for fulfilment of expected tasks. It should be a two way open ended discussion session.

Une chose qui m'a été utile est d'avoir modélisé sous klaxoon le cycle de vie d'une feature. J'ai dessiné des blocs alignés horizontalement. Le premier tout à gauche présente la vision produit. Le second la feuille de route puis la roadmap. Le dernier bloc est constitué d'une capture d'écran de notre tableau kanban. Cela améliore l'engagement de l'équipe car en un clin d'oeil on peut comprendre le sens de l'US que l'on traite et en vérifier la cohérence par rapport à la vision produit.

I think having a clear vision, that is communicated well, that captures people imaginations is fundamental. Your team need to understand and buy into the vision, appreciate their part and what it means to them. But also, clarity on expectations, support and accountability are paramount as part of a purpose driven and people centric strategy to deliver business success.

Collaboration should be a mindset from project staff BEFORE the project even begins, without it, things will be more difficult than they need to be. Setting the tone during the kick-off as the PM will be critical. Grant the project staff the responsibility to collaborate and work outside of having the PM in the room.

Phase 1: Design Thinking Workshops to Align Priorities Phase 2: Team Development Initiatives Intertwining the creative and collaborative principles of design thinking with targeted team development initiatives focused on building trust and safety, you lay the groundwork for a team that is not only aligned in their priorities but also deeply connected by a shared sense of purpose and mutual respect.

I agree with these perspectives I have also found that starting a project that everyone is passionate about is very helpful in solidifying team vision and creating new lines of communication that may have not been there prior. Projects can be tricky, not everyone on your team has the bandwidth to participate. So be mindful when kicking these off!

Communicate clearly and effectively your goals and objectives then create a safe space for open communication. Getting everyone working together involves fostering a collaborative environment where team members feel motivated, engaged, and valued.

A comunicação tem duas finalidades específicas: • acompanhamento • incentivo Para que o trabalho obtenha êxito, é preciso monitorar os integrantes da equipe, avaliando problemas, dificuldades e intercorrências que poderão surgir, mas que, de forma alguma, podem impedir o atingimento do resultado. E manter a motivação e o entusiasmo, tanto individualmente quanto em grupo, é agir como líder.

Have a clear communication strategy and be aware of how your communication affects the team Most managers do not have a defined communication strategy, i.e. what, when, to whom and which details; regular team meetings are a start, but usually not enough. Communication as a leader is an underrated skill and the gap between self-perception and external perception is often not even recognised. Reflexion is the key.

The power of communication in delivering excellent results is always undermined. Beyond what you say, what do you do? Communication should also include modeling. Let them see the importance by way of what you do beyond the mails and text. “what you do sounds so loud that they can hear what you are saying”. Let what you do be a reflection of what you expect

Good communication is at the heart of great teamwork. Great teams communicate well and often, their members are happy to share ideas, brainstorm together, ask for feedback, and be contradicted. Be clear: Set the tone for communication among the team. How often should the whole team get together? This outline will help to keep everyone on the same page and communication flowing. Listen: Communication is as much about listening as it is about speaking. Make sure you’re listening to fellow team members and actually considering their thoughts before offering your own solutions and input. Method: There are so many ways to reach each other in the modern age. Try to use the most suitable tool to communicate for your specific needs.

Le respect est primordial et l’écoute active est essentielle, je dirais même vitale! En plus, il faut sans cesse encourager l’implication des collaborateurs sans pour autant faire le « policier »!

Communication amongst the team members is the best way to take a team forward and achieve the goals of a particular company.It will also help to maintain the KPIs of the company with the best quality. The team members should always be motivated.Team meetings and one to one meetings shall be held regularly so that all the team members get a chance to express what problems they are facing and how they can be resolved as soon as possible.

You should clearly define your expectations and the organization expectations as a team. Also, you must be open to receive feedback from your employees perspectives about the scenarios that they are included in. When there’s a well defined two-way communication, it resembles confidence and responsibilities throughout the team towards a clear objective.

Communicating regularly gives context and meaning for everything that's been done or carried out, also communicating regularly allows any member that seeks for help get it at the appropriate time, Communicating helps the team move faster as a unit, collaborate and also cover for each other. Communicating regularly helps with product release, to know if the timeline is achievable, what can be done to achieve it and also if it's not, what's the possible date and help that will make the work move faster.

Não existe "troca" se apenas um fala e manda. Ouvir cada integrante da equipe é fundamental para não mitigar o desenvolvimento e implantação do empreendimento.

Costumo dizer que o colaborador sempre tem a resposta. É justamente dando espaço de fala, tentando compreender o seu ponto de vista e fomentando a autonomia que construímos grandes equipes. A comunicação é o ponto essencial do sucesso da equipe, embora de nada servirá se a escuta do líder não estiver treinada.

Quando você ouve ativamente os membros da sua equipe, você pode: - Entender melhor as suas necessidades, expectativas, motivações e desafios; - Identificar os pontos fortes, as áreas de melhoria e as oportunidades de desenvolvimento de cada um; - Reconhecer e resolver possíveis conflitos, mal-entendidos ou divergências de forma pacífica e produtiva; - Alinhar os objetivos, as prioridades e as responsabilidades da equipe, evitando retrabalho, atrasos ou desperdícios; - Estimular a criatividade, a inovação e a solução de problemas, aproveitando a diversidade de ideias, opiniões e perspectivas; - Aumentar o engajamento, a satisfação e o desempenho da equipe, gerando um senso de pertencimento, reconhecimento e valorização.

Escuchar activamente implica adaptar tu comunicación no verbal a la de la persona que habla. Esto se conoce como rapport. El rapport es el arte de conectar con otra persona, a través de tu lenguaje no verbal; es decir, mediante tu fisiología y voz. Puedes lograrlo en 3 fases: 1) Igualación (matching): el emparejamiento de tu conducta con la de la otra persona. 2) Acompasamiento (pacing): la sincronización de la mayor cantidad de elementos no verbales posibles de tu comunicación con tu interlocutor/a, adaptándote a sus formas y maneras, y por la mayor cantidad de tiempo posible. 3) Liderazgo (leading): tomas el control de los movimientos de la otra persona, a partir de generarlos en tu propia conducta.

Active listening is a key communication skill that involves absorbing the information someone shares with you, and reflecting back—through questions and your body language—that you heard them. When you listen your team actively you empathize and start supporting them with every bit possible to assure that you are working along with them.

Este punto está altamente relacionado con el punto anterior, normalmente en los 1to1, hablan ambas partes, manifiestan sus ideas y obviamente escuchar activamente es lo que permite que fluya la comunicación, las ideas y que ambas partes estén satisfechas con el desempeño, se puedan solucionar inconvenientes o se mejoren puntos que ya funcionan para el beneficio de todos

Hay una frase que me gusta que dice algo como esto: Escucha para comprender no para escuchar. Muchas veces "escuchamos" y mientras eso sucede ya estamos pensando en las posibles respuestas. Pero si escuchamos realmente, desde la curiosidad, con todo el cuerpo, ahí es donde las personas se sienten escuchadas y cuando nos sentimos escuchados nos sentimos seguros. Y cuando nos sentimos seguros bueno, haremos casi cualquier cosa por la otra persona o por la causa.

Give and receive regular feedback to identify areas for improvement and reinforce accountability. Celebrate the team's progress in this area to reinforce motivation and commitment to this important aspect of collaboration.

Colaboracionismo é palavra de ordem. O líder deve servir sua equipe com ideias, informações e ferramentas; não pode existir a mínima possibilidade de dar desculpas, criticar os membros ou mesmo se eximir de responsabilidades.

Working collaboratively must always consist of a balanced amount of independent wins and compromises on the part of all teammates so as to be effective and efficient. Such compromises and wins ought to be in favour of what is found to be the best decision by the majority. One should never undermine their value to the team as a whole when, if at all, an idea of theirs is dismissed for this is almost always for the purpose of a quicker or smoother path to the ultimate objective.

En algunas ocasiones se le solicita a las personas que aporten ideas, comentarios, sugerencias y luego estas son olvidadas, muchas veces no son ni respondidas ... Es importante que si se pide opinión, se consulta cualquier proceso, luego se obtenga una respuesta, aunque sea negativa, porque al menos las personas saben que han sido escuchadas y si se involucran pues todas aquellas que han sugerido o propuesto algo, se vean involucradas en sus propuestas y se les permita participar de forma activa, con apoyo, respaldo para el beneficio de todos.

My worked examples of strategies to effective collaboration: -Talk chamber: Encourage open, comfortable and transparent communication -Your Goal is my goal: team understands and aligns with common purpose and unity -Check-in: Schedule regular check-in meetings to address challenges, share project updates -Ear present: Practice active listening skills to understand the perspectives and viewpoints of team members -Agree to disagree time:encourage team members to share their unique perspectives also lead to more innovative solutions -Decision circle: Seek input and feedback before making important decisions to ensure buy-in and commitment -Celebration time: Acknowledge and celebrate achievements and milestones reached by the team/individual

Retrospectivas y acuerdos de equipo. Hacer sesiones donde todos participen para sacar acciones, decidir, revisar y recordar los acuerdos.

A veces el tomar un tiempo y realizar una actividad en conjunto con una persona de tu equipo, te permite conocerlo más a nivel personal y a nivel técnico. En mis empleos como supervisor, he tomado tiempo en acompañar a un empleado en la ejecución de sus funciones, esto me permite darle sugerencias y aprender de su estilo de trabajo y toma de decisiones. Es muy estimulante cuando un empleado observa tu interés y como prestas atención a sus explicaciones. Es un doble aprendizaje y refuerza la relación laboral.

See everyone as a resource with value. Collaboration will bring the best in each team member. Here, each team memebr feels happy to share their unique ideas.

Por sua vez, temos que colaborar sempre! Promover um ambiente inclusivo, onde as ideias de todos são valorizadas, resulta em soluções mais criativas e decisões mais bem fundamentadas.

Montrez l'exemple : encadrez votre équipe et développez les compétences de chacun, tout en maintenant la concentration de tous. Soyez honnête et optez pour la transparence. Souvenez-vous : il vaut mieux trop communiquer que pas assez.

Adaptar-se à diversidade é um desafio, mas também uma oportunidade de criar uma equipe mais forte, criativa e eficiente. Algumas ações que podem ajudar nesse sentido são: - Comunicar-se de forma clara, frequente e transparente, buscando entender e se fazer entender, e evitando ruídos; - Promover a colaboração e a cooperação, estimulando o trabalho em equipe, a troca de ideias, o feedback e o reconhecimento mútuo; - Oferecer suporte e orientação, identificando as dificuldades e necessidades de cada membro, e fornecendo recursos, treinamento e acompanhamento adequados; - Celebrar as conquistas e os aprendizados, reconhecendo e valorizando o esforço e a contribuição de cada um, e incentivando a melhoria contínua.

Gosto muito da expressão: UNIDADE NA DIVERSIDADE. Pessoas têm culturas, experiências, valores, interesses, crenças e premissas diferentes. Mas, quando engajados e comprometidos com um tarefa onde o resultado será benéfico para todos, é possível encontrar a homogeneidade.

Reconhecer e valorizar a diversidade de experiências, perspectivas e habilidades dentro da equipe é extremamente importante. Estar aberto a diferentes estilos de trabalho e formas de pensar, promovendo um ambiente inclusivo onde todos se sintam respeitados e aceitos. Buscar ativamente incorporar a diversidade em todas as áreas do trabalho em equipe, desde a formação de grupos até a tomada de decisões, reconhecendo que a diversidade pode, sim, levar a soluções mais inovadoras e abrangentes.

I can't agree more that adapting to diversity in companies or organizations plays an important role in increasing operational efficiency. Appreciating differences among colleagues and utilizing them as unique strengths can enhance business performance. At the same time, collaborating effectively and tailoring to different communication styles can sustain team's productivity as well.

Encourage team members to share their unique experiences and perspectives to foster mutual understanding. Establish ground rules for respectful and inclusive communication, such as the use of non-discriminatory language and active listening.

Mas não esqueça de se adaptar a diversidade, pois a adaptação à diversidade promove uma cultura organizacional resiliente, capaz de enfrentar desafios com uma gama de perspectivas e experiências, impulsionando a inovação e o crescimento.

You forgot one point of problem solving and creativity, being a team team leader you must those points , it can be very challenging if you miss one of them , the team may not reach the objective and goals set

A união da diversidade de pessoas é que irão ser o fator importante para formar uma equipe. A cultura, a experiência, a origens e demais diferenças será o grande desafio para que crie algo incrível.

In the face of team alignment struggles, I've learned the power of intentional communication and collaboration. First, I prioritize regular check-ins, ensuring everyone is on the same page and addressing concerns proactively. Harnessing the diverse strengths within the team, I encourage open dialogue and idea-sharing to foster a collective mindset. Implementing clear goals and roles ensures everyone understands their contribution, creating a unified purpose. Embracing flexibility and adaptability allows us to navigate challenges together. Team unity thrives when each member feels valued and heard. Together, we transform obstacles into opportunities.

In addition to all this valuable insights don’t forget to step out of the daily business to reflect as whole team how the collaboration works. Not at a team event, that’s for having fun, but on a regularly meeting with the focus: What did we well and why? What did cause additional troubles and why? What will we do/ improve / start in the next month? Make sure that every team member has their say without being interrupted or judged.

To ensure team members are aligned and working together effectively, start by clearly communicating the team's vision, goals, and objectives. Foster open communication channels where team members can share ideas, concerns, and progress updates regularly. Encourage collaboration by assigning tasks that require input from multiple team members and promote a culture of inclusivity and respect. Provide opportunities for team-building activities and regular check-ins to address any conflicts or misunderstandings promptly. Additionally, establish clear roles and responsibilities for each team member to avoid confusion and promote accountability. Finally, celebrate successes and milestones together to reinforce a sense of teamwork and motivation.

To keep the team on the same page it’s really very important to take care of the following: 1 Job rotation with in team 2. Informal meeting wherein discussion should be done beside work 3 team building games 4 group discussions 5 healthy competition 6 some quarterly awards which promotes good team member quality To keep team on the same page effective communication and everyone participation helps a lot.

Your team members are humans with real life issues. Allow them PLAY!!! ACTIVE BONDING AND PLAY TIME: All work and no play …you know the rest. Research has it that ; When people are relaxing or playing or unwinding, it opens them up to creativity, you can create exceptionally from the place of rest, allow your team members Play it is good for the team.

Pour garder les membres d'une équipe sur la même longueur d'onde il faut d'abord leur donner envie de rester et de s'engager. La qualité des relations sera déterminante. Il faudra créer les conditions pour que les choses se disent, que les liens se renforcent, que les personnes acceptent de se montrer telles qu'elles sont (déposer leur armure), qu'elles puissent vivre leurs forces et leurs fragilités. L'intelligence collective et les savoirs travailler ensemble naissent des savoirs être en relation. Et si vous développiez l'intelligence relationnelle dans votre équipe ?

Leading by example is pivotal for fostering a positive team dynamic. This not only establishes credibility but also inspires trust and respect among team members.

Consider each team member's strength and allocate responsibilities based on the strength of your team members. Team members sometimes prefer to be given autonomy in executing their duties.

Twice in my life I took over large teams of people and found some 'doing their own thing' so to speak. All of your suggestions for what to do make perfect sense. And I implemented all of them. There is however a step you haven't listed. In one of my cases, a person continued to 'do their own thing', and also said some nasty things about me and other team members behind our backs. The step that needs to be included is: sometimes you need to 'lay down the law' and make it very clear to the person if they don't immediately start to do the work they should be doing, there will be serious consequences.

An example that has already been experienced was, first and foremost, to revisit and reinforce the company's Culture. The purpose. The second step, individual feedback for alignment. Always adapting the speech to each of the employees. Third and lastly, daily meetings with the entire team at the beginning of the day.
