An important milestone is the clear and behavioral definition of the goals we want to achieve as a team, which are the individual, group benefits and impact on the entire company. Clarifying the level of commitment and assumption, verbalizing and discussing reservations, doubts, risk management strategies is appropriate to be part of this process.

In order to have clarity of messages and interaction, joint formulation of a set of rules greatly aids the fluidity and speed of team processes and actions.

I am happy to remember “Monday meeting”, one of the weekly actions in which we are relaxed about our achievements, the strategy changes, the difficulties in the work. Within one of the companies I worked in. “Friday evening” was a monthly informal meeting to relax, discover beyond the role, and connect in an open, informal, open-minded setting. “Thank you” notes another ritual to express our gratitude to a colleague who supported us in accomplishing a task. It is welcome that each team outlines such rituals that give stability, rhythm and development framework.

Let us know our individual life stories and discover “team stories” – those significant moments, loaded with emotion and sense that build the identity of the team and the sense of belonging. They give “color” and increase the sense of intimacy and community.

Moments of recognizing positive attitudes, as well as celebrating success, increase the energy of the team and increase the motivation of team members and are indispensable for high-level operations.
Synergy is an effect of effective team building and maturity. As more of the above practices are achieved, the faster the team’s smooth operation is achieved, effective and efficient in its way of working and interacting with the manager and customers
