A Framework for Functionality
The Four Elements of Effective Teams
A set of commonly understood goals/purpose
Written and reviewed periodically.
A sense of interdependence
A focus on what each of us brings to benefit our purpose.
A commitment to cooperate
Suggested ground rules: timeliness; respectful listening/sharing; candor in our midst, not elsewhere; freedom to make mistakes, corrections, apologies, and forgive.
Accountability as a unit
What we say outside our meetings along with the impact of our actions, is the responsibility of the entire group.
