More On Better Team Relationships 12

by Utpal Vaishnav on April 16, 2010

Here’re the few things I’ve learned over the years about having a profound relationship with my team members.

  1. Show genuine interest in why, what and how part of their work.
  2. Attend them like attending your child. It will make them fill contented.
  3. Do something everyday to make them feel relaxed.
  4. Often go for team-lunches.
  5. Show them that you trust them and believe in their abilities.
  6. Praise them with all your heart when they do something well.
  7. Just not show selective honesty but be truly honest with them in everything.
  8. Read between the lines. Team members have a way of telling you something without directly telling you.
  9. Always say please and thanks when communicating with them.
  10. Encourage them to voice their opinion on the big project decisions.
  11. Tell them stories of how you have reached to your current position. Team members would love to hear that.
  12. Give them enough space and respect their solitude.
