| "Jerilyn was able to engage and elicit participation from even the most
skeptical folks on the team to ensure that the team session was a success.
She helped us pull everything into action items that we could use
to hold each other accountable." - Cindy Akins, VP Human Resources Millward Brown
In today’s business environment of increased competition, right-sizing, and pressure to exceed customer expectations many organizations have looked to teams as a way to create synergies, increase productivity, and build new ideas. Effective teams have stepped up to the task and delivered innovative business results. Ineffective teams have been exercises in frustration, divisiveness, and wasted time and resources.
No matter how expert participants may be in their fields, different skills sets and an understanding of the group dynamics are necessary for any team to effectively launch and reach its potential.
Jerilyn Willin consults with teams in a variety of situations and designs strategies to help both new and continuing teams deliver expected results.
It’s critical that new teams create a common understanding of their goal, clarify roles and responsibilities, and agree on how they will work together. These are the basics for any team. Without this foundation, a team is likely to falter and waste precious time. Jerilyn works with new teams to help them articulate their goal, determine the most expedient process, and deliver results.
Intact work teams and on-going cross functional project teams are often stymied by group dynamics that are hampering their effectiveness as goals, responsibilities, or team members change. Using custom-designed team effectiveness strategies and/or group process consultation, Jerilyn helps teams overcome ineffective dynamics, learn skills to prevent their return, integrate new members and responsibilities, and set new direction regaining lost momentum and commitment.
