The Secret To Self Empowerment Through Team Building

By Robert Hamilton


It is said that no man is an island. This works at personal level and in businesses. A business will only be strong and profitable if the potential of individual members is tapped. There are ideas that enable self empowerment through team building for persona and organization benefit. Here are some of the ideas you can explore.

Develop activities that implant new ideas into the minds of people. One of the ideas to dismantle is that success lies in a boss-servant relationship. Bosses must feel as complements of the workers and workers as participants in the overall success of an organization. Prepare participants to embrace new ideas and ways of doing things. This creates a new mindset that will be felt in all your activities in future. This will open a path for workers to make suggestions that will drive the organization to new heights.

Help participants to build trust. There is a feeling or element of fear whenever a boss is away. He might think that some responsibilities will not be handled professionally. Fellow workers might also not trust each other enough to share ideas and collaborate. This results in a disjointed organization. Find activities that will enable the team to develop greater trust in each other. It is through trust that the potential and capability of individual workers is revealed.

Participants must get lessons on the power of support. Juniors lack support by being ignored or engaged whenever new projects are being implemented. Some have skills that are never considered important in achievement of overall goals. Lack of support causes many of them to withdraw and fail to make contributions. They end up working below their capacities. The potential of a lot of employees and the entire organization is lost.

Recognize, encourage and reward people during the event as well as beyond. Building a team starts with a singular objective, but it is the contributions of individual participants that matter. Recognize people with talents or special skills and affirm their possible contribution. Those who have been extraordinary at work or during the event should be awarded. It encourages them to go an extra mile.

Maintain a positive spirit and outlook for the entire organization. A lot of negative things happen for organizations and are inevitable. The comments made and actions taken will determine the impact these occurrences have over the organization. It requires the guidance of leaders and continuous effort to maintain this positivity.

Teach participants on the benefits of working together or collaborating. The bigger goals can only be achieved when the contribution of everyone counts. The urgency to appreciate individual contributions is very important. It helps you deliver faster. You will use fewer resources, time and still achieve more if you collaborate.

A powerful organization can only be achieved if individuals are empowered. Make effort to teach individuals on the need to become a part of a team working towards common goals. After all, teams are made by individuals and their strength determines that of the entire organization.
