Virtual Team Building and Team Development

 

Inquiry

History has shown us that when technology clashes with tradition, technology always wins.

 

The recent forced lockdown has given us a rare glimpse of the future. Being forced into virtual and remote working means we have ALL had to adopt new technology to support the way we work.

 

If history tells us that technology overrides tradition, then we have to expect that this new virtual way of working will become embedded in future working scenarios.

 

There is one way to ensure the long term and sustainable success of your business. That will be to learn to navigate the paradox of rapidly adopting to new technologies, while also building on clear values and traditions for sustainable growth. This will equip your teams with the tools and skills necessary for the challenges ahead. 

 

Whether you are just looking for virtual or social distance friendly team building activities, or whether you are ready to prepare and develop your team to join 'The Innovation Race', Turnaround has a suite of virtual team building programs to support.

Building Strong Virtual Teams in Disruptive Times

The below model shows our 4 levels for virtual team development to ensure teams don't just survive these disruptive times; but thrive. 

stages
Disruption
Team Alignment
Team Performance
Innovation

Disruption

The early stages of disruption can feel like treading water. Lack of progress, possible tension and pressure for the team. Poor communication, lack of cohesiveness, low levels of trust and ineffective decision making.

Team Alignment

At this stage, teams are starting to build trust, comradery and a shared vision. Aligned teams share common goals and are feeling more mentally prepared with the challenge ahead. At this stage teams will likely be showing strong levels of empathy towards each other and are aware of individual’s challenges and situations.

Team Performance

Once teams are beginning to get aligned, the next stage is to work on how they perform as a team. Performance led teams are looking at improving they are working in response to the disruption and learning new skills and leveraging new technologies. Regular check ins and running simulations to sharpen team skills is a good way to build team performance.

Innovation

There are two possible solutions to disruption. The first is to hope the situation gets better. The second, and we believe the only true solution, is to innovate your way out of the problem. We feel that teams that have gone through the earlier stages of building alignment and working on their performance will be in the best possible position to succeed at this stage.
