Team cohesion is essential in high performance teams, it is the glue that binds the individuals as one and provides the resilience and confidence to overcome setbacks.
During my expeditions, at the end of each day’s hauling our tent time was important in maintaining team cohesion. We discuss the day’s progress and review future strategy. I facilitate discussions to actively encourage communications on both positive and concerning aspects, any grievances should be aired.
The tent time was a real highlight of the day for laughter on the day’s tribulations, to share experiences or learn a useful tip that someone had uncovered by chance. And for me as leader it gave an opportunity to gauge individual’s mental and physical state. Relating this to business I encourage weekly ‘tent-time’ meetings for reflection and review.
