KNOWING HOW WE “TEAM” WITH OTHERS & UNDERSTANDING TEAM DYNAMICS IS CRITICAL FOR OUR SUCCESS
Everybody knows that it’s good to have ‘the right people on the bus,’ and to have those people sitting in the ‘right seats on the bus,’ but this is not an easy thing to do!
The right people are the ones whose Role is a fit to the mission of the team. The right seat is where the job responsibilities are in alignment with a person’s Role.
Successful group achievement depends on how people ‘team’ with each other. In today’s organizations, team players are high-quality nodes in a performance network. Business has a long history of focusing on people as a collection of ‘traits and talents’ each with a fixed price tag, this is a Transactional – not a Strategic –point of view.
Transactional View vs Strategic View
Recruitment cost vs. Lost opportunities
Time-to-hire vs. Lost productivity
Time-to-productivity vs. Lost customers
Training hours vs. Quality issues
Development cost vs. ‘Brand’ impact
CollabGenius is a bias-free assessment designed to understand people and help make decisions about where they will ‘fit’ best, and about structuring teams for success.
Team Performance Analytics employ the 3 Dimensions of Team Interaction
1. Ability to connect with others and form collaborative relationships.
2. Ability to communicate with the intent to advance the team’s mission; and
3. The intrinsic way a person seeks to make meaningful contributions to their team.
Average employee turnover is12%, standard HR practice calculates average turnover cost at 1.5 times salary. But what about the effects of poor teamwork and hiring errors that cause failed strategic initiatives, damaged relationships, lost time, lost sales, and related issues and costs? The ‘collateral damage’ of a failed hire or promotion can assume dizzying proportions.
For example, a company with an annual turnover cost of about $300k – as measured by the ‘transactional’ method but the combined impact of a single bad hire, in this case, a VP of Sales cost the company over $4 million – that’s 14 times the transactional view of turnover costs.
We have some good reasons for taking a new approach to how – hiring and team performance issues are addressed. There is cause for concern regarding the persistence of a transactional mindset when it comes to decisions about people impacted by hiring, downsizing, mergers, reorganizations and even Angel or Venture Capital investing.
Failures are almost always due to people problems. CollabGenius makes a positive impact on individual and team performance, and brings tremendous opportunity to minimize risks considered ‘the cost of doing business.’
