Chartering
teams establishes a performance vision and
inspires teamwork principles and practices.
When
new teams are launched or existing teams are
retooled for new work, the Team Charter
provides the platform for communication and
accountability.
The
Team Charter:
-
Provides
rationale for a team's existence
-
Determines
structure
-
Identifies
needed skills and expertise
-
Explains
functions
-
Clarifies
roles and responsibilities
-
Identifies
deliverables
-
Sets
scope and boundaries
-
Establishes
decision-making processes
-
Determines
accountabilities
-
Plans
for education and development
-
Promotes
quality and ongoing improvement
Teams
that commit to the team chartering process are
launched with minimal confusion and less
frustration.
As
a team continues, the charter is its guide and
gauge for success.
