Motivational speaker in Johannesburg: When team building is not easy
An experienced motivational speaker in Johannesburg will acknowledge that team building is not always easy. Team building is a very complicated job simply because it does not deal with inanimate objects but living human beings that have their own worries, anxieties, desires, ambitions and complexes. Each person in the proposed team is an insulated island and the most difficult job of a team leader is to build a bridge of understanding and fellow feeling between these disparate islands and create a homogenous whole that thinks in the same fashion and aspires for the same goals. This is certainly why a motivational speaker in Johannesburg is one of the popular choices to drive the process. There are certain widely accepted procedures that a team leader might adopt to go about the arduous process of team building. Successful building of a team consists of setting up team goals that each member aspires to achieve keeping aside their individual goals that, though worthy of emulation, might be working at cross purposes with the overall team objectives. Tuckman has proposed four stages of team building that consist of Forming, Storming, Norming and Performing that would perhaps, with a great degree of certainty, build a strong and committed team. In the first stage, as the team members congregate, each individual has their own objectives that might or might not be in congruence with the overall team objectives. This is not to say that team members will deliberately think of actions that might jeopardize team efforts. It is just that personal ambitions and individual goals might hamper the team from achieving its common objectives. So, in the Forming stage a team manager accepts the basic fact that though each team member is an expert in their own right they are yet to gel as a team - similarly to a motivational speaker in Johannesburg being an expert in sharing inspiration.
