Trust is the foundation of any successful team. Team

members should trust one another's abilities, intentions,
and commitment to the team's goals. Building trust takes
time but is critical for team cohesion.

Talk about
 Diversity and Inclusion:

• Effective teams often benefit from diversity in terms of

skills, experiences, and perspectives. Inclusive teams
value and respect the contributions of all members,
regardless of their backgrounds.
 Conflict Resolution

Conflicts are inevitable in any team, but an effective

team knows how to handle them constructively. Teams
should have processes in place for resolving disputes and
disagreements.
 Decision-Making

Teams need a structured approach to decision-making,

whether through consensus, majority vote, or a
designated decision-maker. The chosen method should
align with the team's goals and values.
