What Makes Teams Works

What Makes Teams Works
A challenge to always give the best performance is currently faced with a variety of job complexity, problem solved. In the era of information technology is increasingly connected, giving many opportunities to accomplish the task with ease in individual glasses but it is also an important question in the achievement of the goal for a group or team

Sometimes the achievement of a certain work is indeed absolute generated by our own ability, but often it turns out to require the intervention of others. In achieving the sales target for retail products, a salesman must team up with the logistics to ensure the availability of the goods to be sold.

He should team up with the marketing to gain market analysis data to help choose the right sales strategy. Inevitably the demands of job and complementarity make the most the work has a close interdependence between one part with another part.

This is in line with the thoughts of Vince Lombardi, a coach of the American football team the Green Bay Packers in the 1960s who managed to bring his team became the champion five times, said that: “People who work together will win, whether it be against complex football defenses, or the problems of modern society.”

The proverbial ‘ same weight shouldered, lightweight at  reflect a solid Team Work. In addition to the burden will be even lighter, the results achieved will also be more optimal. The role of Team Work is a huge contribution to the achievement of a target/goal of an organization. In an organization without any formidable Team Work, in addition to open opportunities to the failure, the result will not correspond to the expected. “Great achievement is usually born of great sacrifice, and is never the result of selfishness,” reveals Napoleon Hill.

The question is how a team can collaborate effectively and fruition is tremendous. If accomplished, whether it can be duplicated in a particular time span at a later date? According to Susan Cohen and Diane Bailey of the University of Southern California, the level of effectiveness of the team can be measured from the impact of the resulting in three dimensions:
(1) the effectiveness of performance (measured from the quality and quantity of the final result).
(2) the attitude of the members of the team.
(3) Behavioral outcomes.

There are three fundamental things that can make the team work with effective and optimal fruition:

1. Similarity of vision
Without vision or purpose is the same, it’s hard it feels like a group of workers will be able to produce something that is optimal in accordance with expected. Conformity and unity of purpose/vision will provide direction to all the team members and the achievement of its performance. In the Chinese saying goes, if we pursue a two-tailed rabbit, then rest assured there will be no one who is caught.

2. Common values
Values (values) that are believed to be a frame every attitude and behavior of all team members in achieving the vision. During his turbulent and full of challenges to pursues the target and complete the task, the values it will become a major character that gives color to the team. Trust, honesty, open communication, mutual respect is perhaps a few examples of the value of that form both in the attainment of the targets or mediate in times of conflict or difference present storm. These values should be the things that mutually agreed principles within the team, it is believed and applied in everyday attitudes and behavior.

3. the granting of autonomy
It turns out the granting of autonomy to the team for improvising and embodies the concept in the attainment of vision, according to some studies give a positive impact to the team. Autonomy here is space for freedom of ideas and start pouring the efforts of operational is the actual explanation of the vision. According to Cohen, the granting of autonomy and Colder and will increase the commitment and trust in the team/organization. Provision of space for a decision in a certain scale will trigger the team members to shoulder to shoulder looking for the best way to realize the vision.

Oftentimes will appear new ideas and problem solving solutions that will make it easier to achieve the applicable destination. In the perspective of individuals, further in the study explained that the granting of autonomy will improve the quality of attitude, behavior and performance of team members.

Make the team work effectively to realize the vision of the organization is indeed not easy. Three fundamental things above should apply, communicated and understood by all parties. Without these three things, there will be created a bond (bonding) mental, spiritual and material is strong among the team members in achieving the target.

Long Live The Customer

Long Live The Customer

“Long Live the King! Long Live the King! ” Scenes like this are in the Chinese martial art films.

There was a King who was sitting on the throne or standing on the stage, while hundreds of soldiers standing in front of him while brandishing a hand and yelling like that.
The cry of the soldiers it may not actually derived from his conscience. It could just be mere lip service, mostly because the King in ancient times is very powerful. The King was able to punish anyone. The word is law. To the extent there is a term “the king can do no wrong.”

Well, in an era of New Wave Marketing, the marketer should be shouting “Long Live the Customers!”. Why? Just like the King of a bygone era, customers today are very powerful. They are easily worked at brands at any time. They can talk about anything. All customers be heard greeting, surveyed, try to understand, and were kept by all players. So the importance of the meaning of these customers, to the extent that there is a Customer’s Rights Day World (World Consumers Right Day/WCRD) which falls on every March 15.

The rights of customers who fought there are eight, namely: the right to security, right to information, the right to vote, the right to be heard, the right to obtain the satisfaction of basic needs, the right to obtain remedies, the right to education, and the right to a healthy environment.

“Long Live the Customers!” does not mean  customers God. Put customers far above us. This means that we as marketers have the right to vote, which the customer should really we serve. Subscribers which is really valuable for us. Not a few customers who intend less well and just wanted to get an advantage in not fair.
In the meantime, customers who are really good and valuable is usually quite feel engage if we treat it as redundant; like King, nothing were kept. It could be that she even feel that we are not sincere to serve him and just based on sheer business interests. If the customer is not valuable more for business, she would be cast.
the most appropriate is putting customers horizontally. Put customers like as our friends. We could converse with tasty and based on the sincere desire to assist our customers.

So, our customer  appropriately. “Long Live the Customers!” must be a creed for us so that we too can become a lifetime customer of his supplier. Meaning importance of lifetime customers for businesses already covered in various studies. In his book Loyalty Rules by Frederick Reichheld, for instance, stated that the increase of 5% of customer retention rates will increase the profit between 25% to 95%. So, “Long Live the Customers!” has to be done sincerely. Shouldn’t be lip service, but should really from the heart.
