Understanding Teamwork & Interpersonal Skills听

A team is defined as a group of individuals possessing the complementary skills required to perform a job towards a common goal and shared reward. Team members exchange constructive feedback.听Teamwork results in a greater outcome than the sum of performances of each team member alone.听^[]听

Why does it matter?

The outcome of teamwork is shaped by the pool of skills and expertise of all members.听^[]听The collective effort of a group enhances productivity and ensures the delivery of higher quality work.听^[]听In addition, having a diversity in backgrounds, opinions, and attitudes adds various perspectives, originality, and overall richness to the project at hand.听^[]听In fact, enhanced creativity in problem solving and decision-making has been observed in teams with divergent opinions or intellectual conflicts.听^[][]听

Cultivating Teamwork

While it may come naturally to some, others need to put in extra efforts to build interpersonal relationships, including one-on-one or group collaborations. If that is the case for you, consider participating in non-professional groups such as student associations, event planning committees, or sports teams. A less stressful and more entertaining context allows you to experience teamwork dynamics while sharpening your interpersonal skills, alleviating your concerns, and building your confidence as a听team player.听听

Developing Interpersonal Skills听

Are you able to recognize and manage your own emotions and those of others? If so, you possess emotional intelligence.听 Emotional intelligence is the ability to monitor and regulate feelings and use them to guide your actions.听^[]听You can imagine the importance of听self-awareness, self-regulation, empathy, motivation, and social skills 鈥� abilities grounded in emotional intelligence听鈥撎齱hen working with others. In fact, a growing body of research supports a strong relationship between successful teamwork and emotional intelligence.听^[]听To develop interpersonal skills, focus on the five above-mentioned components of emotional intelligence: self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skills.听听

Consider the following to enhance your interpersonal skills:听

• Observe how you react to what others say or do and try to put yourself in their place before passing judgment.听听听
• Practice the behaviour that you expect from others. For example, many people value humility. Be humble by giving others the chance to show their accomplishments. Also, try to identify your weaknesses. You will soon realize that you are not perfect, so don鈥檛 expect others to be.听听
• Do a self-evaluation and check-in with听yourself.听What are the qualities you bring to your team? What can you improve on to enhance teamwork?听
• Examine your own reaction to stressful events and that of others. You will learn how to manage your professional conduct while maintaining positive relationships with your team.听
• Gauge your decisions taking into account their impact on others and their听feelings, and听be accountable for your actions. Apologizing or admitting a mistake may not be easy, but it will go a long way when building strong and genuine relationships with others (modified from听).听
