How to overcome the nine most common teamwork barriers
本文总结了九个最常见的团队合作障碍,如竞争需求、低估队友、权力差异等,并针对每个障碍提供基于证据的实用建议,帮助团队成员和领导者识别并应对这些挑战。
Teamwork can have great benefits, but several predictable challenges can negatively impact team performance. In this paper, we examine these challenges, and summarize nine of the most common barriers to effective teamwork (i.e., competing demands, undervaluing teammates, power differentials, a leader not promoting collaboration, inexperience working together, dynamic demands, interdisciplinary teams , team member overload, and lack of resources). We describe each barrier, explain the path of least resistance that should be avoided, and provide evidence-based advice. In doing so, we provide a practical guide for team members and leaders, increasing their awareness of what can make teamwork more challenging and equipping them with ideas for addressing emergent obstacles they may encounter.
