Misalignment on teams often happens in predictable ways. One example of this is Unclear Requirements: Poor project management leaving well-intended team-mates unclear on what they were supposed to have completed and by when. #collaboraton #burnout #teams

Who are the most valuable people in your network? Age-old wisdom suggests it is not what but whom you know that matters. Read more, via my article for Harvard Business Review: zcu.io/SfMw #network #collaboration #teams #communication #leadership

Specifying the magnitude of the ask is crucial for knowing whether you have the time and capability required. And, it matters for ensuring that you have the commitment of time and resources from colleagues you’ll be relying on to accomplish the work.  #managingmisalignment

"Overwork is not necessary for professional success"; and yet, we live in a work culture that all too frequently leads to burnout. Dr Alice Boyes gives great insight, via Harvard Business Review: hbr.org/2022/05/resist… #burnout #overwhelm #collaboration #leadership

When you're facing burnout, it's easy to become a "Yes" person without taking a moment to ask any follow-up questions. Always make sure when you are committing to a project to lay out a clear timeline for delivery, along with performance expectations. #teamwork #collaboration

Exploring synergies creates network leverage as collaborating teams become aware of capabilities and sources of future work and referrals. The most successful leaders in our study do so to drive innovation, efficiency, and engagement. #collaboration #success #leadership

Pay attention to your intuition; an uncomfortable feeling that arises after a meeting might be a sign that everyone might not be on board. Consider writing a detailed follow-up email to ensure alignment on goals, responsibilities, and time frames. #collaboration #burnoutsolution

Misalignment in teams often happens in predictable ways. One example is goal misalignment where functional leaders steer people’s efforts toward their own goals that sometimes don’t align with the team’s mission. #leadership #success #collaboration

Develop your own “sensor system” so that you can engage quickly to fix problems. This might mean using the last 5 minutes of a meeting to ask people to state back what they’re taking away, to make sure there are no misinterpretations.  #meetings #teamwork #groups

When struggling with a misaligned team, consider using a visual artifact (like a process model or flow chart). When you reach an agreement on where your priorities differ, re-focus the conversation on a principle that unites everyone’s efforts.  #collaboration #burnout

Inefficient communication practices are everywhere in organizations today. More efficient collaborators find ways to shape norms and expectations to streamline interactions and reduce everyone’s time and effort.  #collaboration #meetings #teamwork

How can you reduce the likelihood of performance misses? Remember that situations where individuals can’t deliver because of outside pressures need a different response from situations where people may not have the personal capabilities. #burnout #teams #solutions

How can you reduce the likelihood of performance misses? Keep your emotions in check. By managing emotions, you will be able to give measured guidance on what’s important to your team so they, in turn, don't overreact or propagate #stress. #burnout #collaboration #microstress

Effective collaboration — especially for innovation — builds on openness and authenticity. #innovation #collaboration
