Why Use Team Based Management?

Teams are an effective way to implement the management of a project or a period of change in an organisation. Teams are used as a way of implementing Six Sigma in a department or company. Teams can also be used to implement for example: business process improvement, 5S, Kaizen and process management. They give clarity to what needs to be done, gather skills and expertise in one place and allow for measurement on what is being delivered. Here are some tips for getting the most from teams:

Leaders and Facilitators
Leaders and facilitators are critical to the success of teams based management and play big parts in team meetings. The leader is responsible for direction and control of the group in conjunction with any more senior teams. The facilitator is responsible for ensuring the meetings of the group run well.

Buy In - Brain Storming
Brain storming allows a team of people to contribute ideas about a subject in an organised and efficient way. A good example of brain storming is when the members all give an idea (working round the table a few times) which is posted on a white board. Once everyone has given one or two suggestions, the ideas are reviewed and clarified, leaving a full list of tasks and ideas for the team to focus on.
