3 Simple steps an Executive Coach recommends to build your Sales Team Quickly.

The need to build effective teams is increasing and the available time to do is
decreasing. How do you increase team effectiveness in a climate of rapid change with
limited resources? Here is an excellent team-building exercise developed by Marshall
Goldsmith (Team building without Time wasting, Kielty, Goldsmith & Company,1998) and
regularly used by Momentum Business Coaching Ltd (www.momentumcoach.ie)

A recent poll of our executive clients highlighted that 83% felt team effectiveness
was an area of concern for the future.

It requires that team members courageously ask for feedback, have the discipline to
develop a behavioural change strategy, to follow-up and to \'\'stick with it\'\'. To
implement this process the leader will have to coach or facilitate rather than be
the \'\'boss\'\'. Members should develop their own behavioural changes, rather than have
them imposed upon them.

Step 1. Begin by asking each member of the team to confidentially answer two questions:
a) On a scale of 1 to 10, how well are we working together as a team?
b) On a scale of 1 to 10, how well do we need to be working as a team?

Step 2. Ask the team, \'\'If every team member could change two behaviours which would
help us to close the gap between where we are and where we want to be, which two
behaviours should we all try to change?\'\' Prioritize the behaviours and determine
the two most important behaviours to change.

Step 3. The team members also choose two behaviours for personal change that will
help close the gap. Then they ask for brief progress reports from each other
monthly.

This process works because it encourages team members to primarily focus on changing
their own behaviours.
