worked for Cisco Systems, Inc., International Network
Services and Vanstar early in his career. He has a
management and business leadership background from
his Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees and has long been
known in the industry for delivering projects with his
teams under budget and on time consistently. Managing
his teams is all about communication at every level, so
here are three tips to improve communication in your
corporate team setting:
3. Enable and create company-wide conversations. Ensure
you give your team members a voice. Bring them into
the conversation early and provide them a vehicle in
which their voice can be heard. This is especially
important for large transformational projects. Team
members need to be able to connect the dots between
what it is they are doing and how those tasks map to the
overall goals and objectives of the organization your work
for.
4. Make it easy for horizontal and vertical communication.
Team leaders and team members need to be able to
communicate with each other with ease. In this case, the
right communication systems and platforms matter when
cutting down on costs and making it easier for everyone
to get in touch with each other.
5. Plan a budget. Team leaders have to make it
easy for their employees to communicate.
Sometimes this takes an investment. Weigh the
benefits of allowing for better employee
relationships and open communications against
not making this investment at all.
