An increasing number of organizations in Malaysia are relying on teams – project teams, product development teams, virtual teams, and autonomous working teams to compete in a rapidly changing domestic and global market.

The reason for this is the ability of teams to perform at high levels and adapt quickly to escalating demands. Hence, in today’s professional environment more than ever, there is great emphasis placed on team leadership skills, team communication skills and team management styles.

Team effectiveness is enhanced by a team’s commitment to reflect and perform with on-going evaluation. In addition to evaluating accomplishments in terms of meeting specific goals, for teams to be high-performing it is essential for them to understand their interaction as a team.

Hence, team members need to constantly sharpen their skills as team initiatives often fail due to improper implementation, conflict and competition. Team Leadership Skills are essential to maintain development and cohesion in the group.

This Team Building and Leadership Training Program will help enable Team Leaders with the skills to create, motivate and maintain successful teams.
