Article: How to Build a Successful Team – New York Times | Business

Summary

This article gathered insights from over 500 business leaders and distilled it into 5 areas:

Learning

Although nothing in this article hasn’t been said before about team building, it does highlight that the fundamentals have been tried and tested by many and still hold up. The one central idea this article does revolve around is condor and the importance of communicating your ideas and intent clearly to others. In my experience, when a manager or leader is able to communicate open and honestly, I have a much easier time trusting them.

Application of Ideas

One of the more difficult things I’ve had to do as a manager is giving annual performance reviews. Giving on the spot feedback has always been easier for me, but something about trying to cover a whole year in one conversation is difficult to me. In the article, it encourages managers to give feedback more often. So often, that people get used to it. This makes it easier when you sit down for an annual performance review, because they already know what to expect and there shouldn’t be any surprises.
