The first of the ways to increase teamwork is to set clear team goals. This is standard advice, yet I coach a lot of managers that don’t set clear goals or they set them and then forget about them. I explain methods to set and remind the team of the team goals for how to make your team work better.

The second of my tips for effective teamwork is to think of ways to teach teamwork to your team. Great teamwork can absolutely be demonstrated to a team by you to improve their teamwork skills and improve teamwork and collaboration in the workplace.

Third, effective teamwork in the workplace needs clear responsibilities and accountabilities throughout the team. Work to give everyone a clear role and activities and projects. Spend time with individuals to ensure they understand exactly what they need to do and also communicate this to the team. 

Fourth, for how to build teamwork in the workplace, work on building trust between team members and yourself and between team members. Without trust, relationships do not strengthen, nor does reliance on each other. There are different types of trust so work on building personal and competence based trust. 

Fifth, encourage lots of open and honest communication between all members in the team. This is one of the essential ways to coach teamwork and to get each team member focused on helping their colleagues. 

Finally, align the personal rewards that you offer to team members with how well they personally work within the team. I share 6 different ways to reward team members so do stay for this.
