Can empowering employees be a bottom line booster?
Article Abstract:
Team building and letting employees have the authority to make decisions can increase profitability because very demanding customers must be served by people who work as a team. The primary steps towards developing a team-based organization are: considering oneself as a coach instead of a boss, carefully analyzing the team building capability of the employees, discussing the goals with the employees, letting the team members know their progress, assigning teams; maintaining a scorecard, creating a decision-making and conflict resolution procedure, and applauding success.
