DS Cohen & Associates Team Survey
The issue for most teams is not the roles and responsibilities. Most organizations help clarify roles and responsibilities when setting up teams and re-articulate them when new members join. Yet, many teams still do not achieve their full potential. Please rank, in order or importance, the top five reasons that you perceive teams do not reach their expected productivity and not make meaningful contributions to the business. Please add any further thoughts in the comments area. The results will be shared in a future article. Thank you for your time and contribution.
