Today I took a look around the Internet search for good tips on Team Management. One that stood out to me was Mindtools.com. The site has a lot of free information and was easy to read.
Mindtools.com first launched in 1996 as a free skills training site, to teach people practical skill that can help you excel in your career. In 2003 their e-courses were launched for download. The site now has over 300,000 subscribers and has more than ten million visitors a year.
On the topic that I had goggled “Team Management”, this site does a really great job at breaking down the keys to start and manage your team. They break down the importance of delegating people to the task and the understanding fully what the goal is for the team and what each person’s role is to be, to how to keep your team motivated with good communication and how important communication is within the team. Each team member must remember how important it is to communicate to the other members. The site also makes some good tips on what traps to avoid when managing a team. I felt like the information that I read on Team Management has helped me in many ways.
Mindtools.com also has links to several other resources to help with leadership skills, problem solving, decision making, time management, and something that most people don’t remember to try to control is stress management. I would recommend this site to anyone that works with team projects or will be working on a team project in the future. The information that you can access for free is unbelievable, you may also choose to become a member of the site for as low as $19 and get much more quality information, and with a money back guarantee how can you go wrong?
