Building a team Team: a group of people who must work together to accomplish a common task. NOT: A group = a collection of individuals gathered together to meet the individual needs of the members; OR A committee = a group of people officially delegated to perform a function, usually planning or decision-making Team members make great personal sacrifices of time and schedule because of their commitment to one another and the common goal. A successful team generates and thrives upon a deep personal loyalty between team members.

TEAMS “. . . work together to provide oversight for the growth and well being of constituencies served, and to develop a clear direction and purpose for the organization.” Clear understanding of roles and interactions Mutual and shared authority for accomplishing the goals Recognition of mutual responsibility Organizational oversight What kind of team do you envision?

Insert a photo of one of your own teams here. Must haves for teams Common purpose Clear roles Accepted leadership Effective processes Solid relationships Clear communication Insert a photo of one of your own teams here.

Team killers Team members’ pride Lack of acceptance Suspicion Inflexibility Docility Others??

Understanding your teammate Different personalities come together around a common goal Different values, approaches, understandings, ways of doing things, history with the organization Can contribute to staff conflict, challenges Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) = a way to understand more of your teammates

Four MBTI Dichotomies Extraversion – Introversion Sensing – Intuition E - I Dichotomy Sensing – Intuition S - N Dichotomy Thinking – Feeling T - F Dichotomy Judging – Perceiving J - P Dichotomy Where do you prefer to focus your attention – and get your energy? How do you prefer to take in information? How do you make decisions? How do you deal with the outer world?

Understanding preferences No type better than other When coming together in a team . . . Similarities may be weaknesses Differences may be strengths Similarities may be strengths Differences may be weaknesses Learn the other to build the team, not to pigeonhole/stereotype Use the information to help, nurture, never to harm Two-way responsibility

E-I Dichotomy: source of energy Most who prefer Extraversion Prefer action over reflection Are attuned to external environments Communicate by talking Learn by discussing/doing Are sociable & expressive Enjoy working in groups Most who prefer Introversion Prefer reflection over action Are attuned to inner world Communicate in writing Learn through mental practice & reflection Are private & contained Enjoy working alone or in pairs

E-I Preference & Your team What’s worse – no or frequent interruptions? What do you consider a large party or group? Does a large party excite/frighten you? What do you do when you get there? What is your “social” expectation of your office? During the work day After work/weekends Why is this your hope/expectation? Identify your similarities & differences. What do these mean for your team?

S-N DICHOTOMY: taking in information Those who prefer sensing Emphasize the pragmatic Prefer facts, details, specific information Oriented to present realities Value realism Observe & remember using five senses Build carefully to conclusions Trust experience Those who prefer intuition Emphasize the theoretical Prefer concepts/high-level plans Oriented to future possibilities Value imagination See trends & patterns in specific data Use a “sixth” sense More quickly to conclusions, follow hunches Trust inspiration

S-N Preference & your team Which is worse – no sense of the present reality or no sense of the future possibilities? When voting, how do you decide whom to support? Identify your similarities & differences? What do these mean for your team?

T-f dichotomy: decision making Those who prefer thinking Are analytical Use cause/effect reasoning Solve problems with logic Strive for objective standard of truth Are described as reasonable Search for flaws in an argument Fair = everyone treated equally Those who prefer feeling Are empathetic Guided by personal values Assess impact of decisions on people Strive for harmony & positive interactions Are described as compassionate Search for point of agreement in an argument Fair = everyone treated as an individual

T-f preference & your team What’s more challenging for you: working in an environment that lacks logic or that lacks harmony? What process would you use for making a decision, such as which students will attend training or an event? Identify your similarities & differences. What do these mean for your team?

J-p dichotomy: lifestyle Those who prefer judging Scheduled/organized Finish one project before starting another Like things decided Avoid last minute stresses, finishing tasks before deadline Limit surprises Routines are effective Those who prefer perceiving Spontaneous/flexible Start many projects, have trouble finishing Open to change, keep things loose Energized by last minute pressure finish at the deadline Enjoy surprises Routines are limiting

J-P Preference & your team What’s more challenging for you: winging it or adhering to a schedule? Describe your ideal vacation. What do you do? Process for getting to that . . . Identify your similarities & differences? What do these mean for your team?

Benefits of gaining insight Can reduce defensiveness when in a disagreement Increase openness to feedback from what is going on around you Can improve your ability to see others more for who they are, appreciating their individual gifts and contributions Can enhance your ability to appreciate your own unique contributions and responses Can help you choose realistic goals, accomplish what you say you will

Appreciating others on the team You can understand and adapt as necessary to your leader’s preference You can give assignments/requests in a way that appreciate your staff’s preferences Improves communication Know who to go to for what = utilize each type depending on the situation How might your staff meetings look different with MBTI understanding?

Summarizing the team Similar types on a team Understand each other more quickly and easily May reach decisions quickly, but may have one-sided view of the situation/options May fail to appreciate gifts & contributions lacking on the team Variety of types on a team Longer to establish communication Less likely to overlook possibilities & details Longer to reach consensus

Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success. - Henry Ford
