Without team resilience, work relationships can deteriorate in the face of difficulties. This can lead to decreased engagement and productivity. Resilient teams, on the other hand, can not only overcome difficult times effectively, but also act quickly in the face of new growth opportunities. Team resilience is the ability of a group of people to respond to change and disruption in a flexible and innovative way.
In the face of adversity, resilient teams maintain their work productivity while minimizing the emotional toll on their members. Fortunately, businesses aren't usually that risky. However, there are steps managers can take to increase team resilience. They are experts at making sense of situations, they come together and they persist.
When adversity hits, resilient teams do three specific things in exceptional ways. The second quality is to have the vision of the future necessary to create a road map for teamwork, or a plan that “reflects the extent to which all team members know what their own roles and responsibilities are, and to what extent they agree on the roles and responsibilities of other team members”.
