The 5 Myths of High Performance Teams
Presented by Dr. Jennifer D Nahrgang, Assistant Professor at the W.P. Carey School of Business at Arizona State University
Effective teamwork is critical to all organizations. In this engaging session, Dr. Nahrgang will debunk 5 common myths about teams and give you the tools you need to build your own high performing team in your organization.
Most organizations today use some form of team-oriented work and often HR is called on to assist management on team organization, structure and performance. Managers overwhelmingly agree that teams are central to organizational success. Although teams may be critical to organizational success, leaders and team members often make several assumptions about how to implement teams, foster a collaborative environment, and achieve high performance. In this presentation, Professor Nahrgang will debunk 5 common myths about teams in order to help leaders and team members understand and participate in teams more effectively. HR practitioners and leaders will gain knowledge and tools to improve the effectiveness of their own teams and to coach other leaders on building high performance teams.
Dr. Nahrgang specializes in leadership processes and their development within organizations over time including leadership in teams, team processes and overall team performance. She studied at Michigan State University where she earned her Doctorate in Philosophy. In 2008 Dr. Nahrgang was the recipient of a SHRM Foundation Dissertation Grant Award.
