Eight Hallmarks of a High Performing Team
Teamwork is often used as a focal point or theme for an organization’s conference. But what does
“team work” really look like?
Teamwork is more than just holding hands and singing Kumbya. It’s about accomplishing results
quickly, effectively and collaboratively.
Go beyond “touchyfeely” teamwork!
As a high stakes meeting facilitator, Kristin Arnold shares eight hallmarks for a high performing
team – observable signs for when a team is firing on all cylinders. She also shares concrete,
practical techniques to take your team to the next level.
This keynote helps organizations and team members refocus their efforts on those traits that
contribute to the evolution of truly extraordinary teams.
1. Clear Goals
2. Robust Communication
3. Decision Making using a variety of tools and methods
4. Balanced Participation
5. Diversity of ideas, methods, experiences and opinions
6. Constructively Managed Conflict
7. Positive Atmosphere that encourages trust and openness
8. Participative Leadership
Speaker: Kristin Arnold
As a high stakes meeting facilitator, moderator, trainer and keynote speaker, Kristin has worked with thousands of senior executives, project managers and team leaders, challenging their traditional notions about teamwork. In an engaging and interactive way, she facilitates concrete, practical concepts, tools and techniques her clients can immediately apply and realize substantive results – particularly around the topics of strategic and business planning, critical thinking, problem solving, and collaborative decision-making.
Kristin’s passion for teams is reflected in her writing, speaking, facilitation and consulting.
