Overview

🕮 Cross Civil Service

An effective team typically features people with complementary skills, committed to a common purpose, goals and approach for which they hold themselves mutually accountable. It’s likely to have a firm identity, a shared history and a collective understanding of what’s important to both individuals and the team as a whole.

However, effective, high performing teams don’t just emerge overnight. They’re nurtured in an environment that helps bring out the best in them, allowing them to thrive. Creating such an environment is a crucial part of any leader’s job.
