SYNERGY

THE CONCEPT OF TEAMWORK


SYNERGY - its definition.
the interaction of elements that when combined produce a total
effect that is greater than the sum of the individual elements.
to be able to create an environment of teamwork and partnership
between/among individuals aiming for a common goal.
“Synergy is the creation of a whole that is greater than the sum of its
parts.“
A partnership creates synergy by combining the
complementary knowledge, skills, and resources of its
different partners. When a partnership achieves a high
level of synergy, the group, as a whole, is able to think in
new and better ways about the issues it is trying to
address, take more comprehensive actions to address
those issues, and develop a stronger, and more
supportive, relationship with the broader community.
A team needs four necessary traits in order to become
synergistic and succeed:

1. clear team purpose


2. solid communication
3. empowerment so the team can lead themselves
4. a commitment to the goal.
BE CLEAR
Goals need to be clearly defined for each person to
understand how and in what role he/she will need to
create and fulfill a team’s success. Understanding the
team’s goals and purpose and knowing how you will
achieve them is empowering.
COMMUNICATE
Communication is vital in team members so they know
where the ball is and where it is going. Just as crucial for
the organizational team, all need on-going
communication in order to stay productive, overcome
obstacles, and check progress towards targets.
EMPOWERMENT
extent to which someone
provides the encouragement,
tools, and authority to others
enabling them to use their
power, talents and skills
effectively. Empowering your
team to help them lead
themselves creates trust and
innovative behavior, in turn, a
synergistic team and coaching.
COMMITMENT
being a member of a team requires personal
commitment and dedication to the overall success of a
team. Once we harness the power of synergy within a
team we can accomplish anything.
BASIC FUNDAMENTALS IN
CREATING A POSITIVE SYNERGY
• SHARED VISION, VALUES AND GOALS
"Begin with the end in mind". Give people a sense
of purpose. Goals work as a motor for motivation,
however, a shared goal needs to be matched with
clear roles. When each team member has clear roles
and responsibilities, the risk of overlap or gap of work
can be reduced significantly.
BASIC FUNDAMENTALS IN
CREATING A POSITIVE SYNERGY
• GOOD LEADERSHIP AND FOLLOWERSHIP
Leadership is interlined with followership. In
order to create a good team synergy, good leaders
and followers must co-exist. When less people try to
lead and actually be good followers, willing to listen, to
be led and cooperate with others, the task at hand
can be completed much more efficiently and
effectively.
BASIC FUNDAMENTALS IN
CREATING A POSITIVE SYNERGY
• TRUST, RESPECT AND COMPASSION
When every individual works and
communicates with the basis of trust, respect and
compassion, everyone will feel that their contribution is
as valuable as the next person – and vice versa, and
therefore each person will give their best work for the
Team. A compassionate individual will be conscious of
the impact of their action on others. In result, everyone
will pull their own weights, and collaboratively reach
Synergy.
BASIC FUNDAMENTALS IN
CREATING A POSITIVE SYNERGY
• POSITIVE ENVIRONMENT
Like human relationships, Synergy is a constant
process and must be managed. It's a never ending
journey that you and your team as the crew of a ship,
embark upon together and must constantly row and
work to reach it. An effective Team is capable to
resolve differences by finding and managing the best
solutions from the team member’s contributions,
despite differences of skills, opinions, strengths,
weaknesses and talents.
"Nobody can achieve success alone."
- Ifeanyi Enoch Onuoha
