The Challenge
Team development faces challenges like communication issues, diverse skills, conflicts, cultural differences, and motivation problems.
Overcoming these requires improving communication, managing conflicts well, embracing diversity, boosting motivation, and strong leadership. Aligning goals and fostering collaboration are key to building an effective team.
How we develop team working and teams across the NHS is crucial to developing an organisational culture and shared sense of purpose, focussed on improving outcomes for patients.
