TEAMING:
Appreciating the Many Faces of Intelligence
None of us is as intelligent as the combination of
individuals in the partnership called “team.”
—Jim Bagnola
Goal
To use Teaming and Leadership to transform the traditional culture into a participative culture–from a “Do as you are told” to a “Do whatever it takes” culture.
- Teaming is about human interaction. It places tremendous demands
on interpersonal skills. The three most important people skills must
be upgraded in the teaming environment:
- Learning to be assertive (not saying yes when we mean no)
- Really listening to others
- Resolving conflicts utilizing communication intelligence
