• Commitment. The engagement of each team member to work together with others and accomplish the established goals is highly critical to the team's success and should be highly emphasized.
• Communication. Communication at the workplace should be open, honest and respectful to everyone. People are free to express their opinions, thoughts, and potential solutions as long as they do it along the lines of core foundational communication rules. When communication is carried out this way, people can communicate better, and they feel listened to. Questions should be asked for clarity to ensure that there is accuracy in information shared.
• Creative innovation. Thinking outside the box and creatively making new ideas should be encouraged and the ideas tested to see if there are potential projects that can spring from them. Innovation culture should be promoted to all employees making them think creatively and come up with solutions to challenges they are facing.
• Collaboration. Team members should be the first to support each other in diagnosing, analyzing, resolving teamwork problems and any work related conflicts. Personality conflicts should be overseen with each member taking precaution on how they handle their differences. Members should strive to work together to come to a mutual resolution of how to solve problems and disagreements of any sort.
• Control. Control is the management's work even though it doesn't mean you hover around each employee all the time. Displaying participative leadership in leading meetings, making decisions, assessing the progress of the projects, holding team members accountable as well as providing direction for the team is the real meaning of control.
