The need<\/strong><\/p>\n

In any successful company, employees often come from a wide range of experiences, backgrounds and skills. This diversity can be beneficial for the workforce making teamwork and collaboration so important. But the differences can also lead to difficulties in working together.<\/p>\n

For the new age employee, job skills go beyond what is daily and routine. Problem solving, reflection and constant upgradation of skills are critical for today\u2019s employee.<\/p>\n

The approach<\/strong><\/p>\n

Communication: Listen more, work towards avoiding conflict, trust and respect your teammates, and ask questions when in doubt. If you don\u2019t understand something, go to the person who does.<\/p>\n

Clarify roles: Everyone in a team has a responsibility and corresponding authority. If you are clear on what you have to accomplish, it is that much easier to reach your goals and hold someone accountable for their actions.<\/p>\n

Feedback: In order to grow, it is important to know what you are doing well and where you can improve. Applaud a job well done, everyone loves to be appreciated. Be firm but gentle when giving constructive criticism. Explain how and where someone can improve.<\/p>\n

Ask for help: When you are stuck somewhere and don\u2019t know how to proceed, ask for help. Brainstorm ideas, share opinions and analyse the discussion. Make a decision once your analysis is complete. Your result will be richer than when you were trying to do it on your own.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
