WHY A TEAM?

People /emploee are the core element of

organizational dynamic.

The multinational companies practice indicates

the fact that the team must be considered as

being the nucleus of a successful company.

Success organizations anticipate the need of

change and answer to this by a adapted

dynamics to the environment.

WHY A TEAM?

Page 10: THE TEAM-BUILDING IMPACT ON THE ROMANIAN ORGANIZATIONS DYNAMICS

TEAM VS. GROUP

Elements that determine thetransformation of a group into ateam are: Acknowledging the common purpose;

Assuming the roles within a plannedactivity;

The trust and the openness betweenthe team members;

THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE TEAM & ‘THE 7 Cs’

Our work is based on effectiveness of the

team that depends on the existence and

development of so called ‘the 7 Cs’

11

Page 12: THE TEAM-BUILDING IMPACT ON THE ROMANIAN ORGANIZATIONS DYNAMICS

THE ‘7 Cs’- THE THING THAT DISTINGUISHES

Clarity of the objective;

Capacity of the team members to accomplish the

objective;

Cooperation between the members of the team;

Co-participation ( meaning - dedication);

Communication;

Continuous improvement;

Creativity.

TEAM BUILDING

Kolb cycle - work method, applied during the

eight stages that actually form the whole

program of team building.

It is interesting to analyze how that kind of a

program identifies into the Romanian

organizations, and especially, which are the

short-term and medium term results.

SUCCESFUL PRACTICE INTO ROMANIAN

ORGANIZATIONS

The first meeting with this company occurred in

1997. A group of 12 managers participated to a

team building program; the training program

had been designed by the consultants.

At the beginning of the program we could

described participants’ attitude using the

following words: distrustful, rigid and

suspicious.

Page 16: THE TEAM-BUILDING IMPACT ON THE ROMANIAN ORGANIZATIONS DYNAMICS

SUCCESFUL PRACTICE INTO ROMANIAN

ORGANIZATIONS

At the end of the ‘game’ the comments were:

‘we are exhausted’, ‘we are not used to outdoor

exercise that much’, ‘we had such a good time’.

There also have been voices that positively

appreciated the defusing of certain conflicts, or

the identification of certain communication

obstacles -and that is pretty much about it.

SUCCESFUL PRACTICE INTO ROMANIAN

ORGANIZATIONS

If fiveteen years ago the requests for team

building programs were relatively rare.

only 2 companies/year were asking for it, at

the present moment we have increase the

requests 15 times (over 30 firms/year), in

spite that the training and consultancy

companies number in the human resources

field has increased considerably.17

CONCLUSIONS -1

The team forming program is seen:

as a nucleus of a successful company;

link to team activity -benefits, improvement and

their consolidation;

Above elements are reflected in the

organizational dynamics.

CONCLUSIONS -2

Each teambuilding program is unique(!) just

like the organizations are unique in their own

way.

The positive trend team consolidation must be

realized according to the team members’

strengths.

Page 20: THE TEAM-BUILDING IMPACT ON THE ROMANIAN ORGANIZATIONS DYNAMICS

Over the time Romanian managers

understood and consider the fact that the

team building is not a panacea to obtain

the success but is one of the key

elements in the way construction towards

EXCELLENCY.
