I work for Whole Foods Market (I'm a Bakery Team Leader). Our company utilizes the team concept extensively (in fact employees are called Team Members), mostly with sucess. A large, overlooked, area is teaching the "team" concept to team members. When I mentioned this to my team leader, I was told that was my responsibility to teach that. Well, honestly, I have NO idea how to do that ( I have a few ideas, but no way to organize them). There are some members of my team, that no matter what I do they will continue to be non team players (some have been with the company for years, and are well know to be troublemakers). And within the confines of the law/employee relations, I have identified them, and am working to remove them from the team.
Outside of hiring a consultant (aka, hiring you), are there any book/seminars/workshops you could recommend or that you are teaching?
Cheers,
Stacey
