The hidden value of organizational health--and how to capture it

The Science of Teambuilding

"Tell me about a time you worked with a team." It is a common interview question, one many of us have heard before. If you're like me, a flood of past teams comes cascading into your brain, some good and others not so good. There is the team where you had to the do all ...

Psychological safety in team building

Team members need to feel comfortable speaking up to create the communication dynamics necessary for success.

It all comes down to trust, which is one of the characteristics teambuilding...

For an effective teambuilding:

Think outside the box when defining the format that works best for all team-members;
Avoid activities where people are singled out and might feel embarrassed. These create the opposite of the trust-building effect needed to build strong teams.
Effective teambuilding allows teams to tackle an achievable challenge together. Working through a challenge together increases oxytocin and group cohesiveness.

Time Management Is About More Than Life Hacks

Project creep, slipping deadlines, and a to-do list that seems to get longer each day - these experiences are all too common in both life and work.

Steps To Improve Time Management

The way to improve your Time Management skills requires us to figure out where to focus. This can be done by:

Getting an objective self-assessment done by your peers or boss, or establishing a baseline behavior to measure your performance against.
Understanding that it is your skills, not your personality or preferences that can be developed to provide the best results.
Identifying the key skill(s) that you need to prioritize, and avoiding spreading yourself too thin.

Developing Awareness Skills

The key factor to consider when developing awareness skills is that effectiveness (doing things well) is as important as efficiency (doing things fast).

Find which time of the day is your 'peak performance time.
Treat time as money, a limited resource, and create a 'time budget' for your to-do list.
Measure and evaluate the projected time vs the actual time taken.
Consider which of the tasks create follow-up tasks that take up your time later.
Take into consideration the 'opportunity cost' of spending time in an activity.
