Targeting Quality 2019

Fostering good team dynamics is a difficult and thankless job, one that is often relegated to managers. Problematic personalities, clashing communication styles, egos… All thrown to our poor managers, to be dealt with from the top-down. But it doesn't have to be this way! The team dynamic is the responsibility of the entire team, to own, manipulate and tweak to their benefit. And it's not as scary as it sounds. But how do you know what makes a team dynamic good or bad? What's worth fixing and what do you work around instead? In this talk, I'll be sharing my experiences working with different teams - both good and bad - and what I've learned from them. What are the markers of a good team, and why? What adjustments can you make, or suggest to management, to improve a teams dynamic? What can you do to promote good working relationships with your team members?
