Teamwork. At Verizon, it's the secret sauce that enables us to accomplish our shared goals. In fact, our credo, which is a guiding document outlining how we work together, is rife with statements about teamwork, and is a testament to our commitment to collaboration, diversity, and excellence in all that we do. "We know teamwork enables us to serve our customers better and faster." These words resonate deeply with us because they reflect our core belief that together, we can achieve more for our customers than we ever could alone. Every day, we witness the power of teamwork as we work tirelessly to meet the needs of over 100 million customers worldwide. "We are driven not by ego but by accomplishments." This statement speaks volumes about our culture of humility, where recognition is earned through hard work, dedication, and tangible results. It's not about individual accolades; it's about what we can achieve together as a unified team. "We keep our commitments to each other and our customers. Our word is our contract." Integrity is non-negotiable at Verizon. When we make a promise, we honor it, holding ourselves and each other accountable to the highest standards of reliability and trustworthiness. "We respect and trust one another, communicating openly, candidly and directly since any other way is unfair and a waste of time." Open communication is the cornerstone of effective teamwork. We foster an environment where every voice is valued, every opinion is heard, and constructive dissent is encouraged. "We voice our opinion and exercise constructive dissent, and then rally around the agreed-upon action with our full support." Healthy debate fuels innovation and drives progress. We welcome diverse perspectives, knowing that through constructive dialogue, we can arrive at the best possible solutions for our customers and our company. "Ideas live and die on their merits rather than where they were invented." At Verizon, meritocracy reigns supreme. Regardless of title or level, everyone has the opportunity to contribute their ideas, knowing that they will be evaluated based on their substance and potential impact. As we continue to drive technology that shapes how we interact with each other and the world around us, we know and depend on each other and the power of teamwork to make us unstoppable. #Teamwork #Diversity #Innovation #Verizon

"Amidst recent concerns over work-induced stress, fostering a culture of support and camaraderie within our workplace is paramount. At Motorola Solutions, our Cloud Platform Engineering (CPE) team has pioneered a tradition under the visionary leadership of our director Anudeep Muttavarapu, aimed at nurturing our team's spirit while celebrating diversity. In this tradition, our 125-strong CPE team, spanning across 3 continents, is divided into four committees: Recognition, Community builders, Newsletter, and Speakers. Each committee is empowered to curate activities and events, fostering a vibrant tapestry of interactions and ideas. These initiatives transcend borders, allowing us to connect, laugh, and innovate across time zones. Through leadership talks, internal newsletters, and cultural exchanges, we not only bond as colleagues but also cultivate empathy and understanding. None of this would be possible without the unwavering support of our leader, who ensures the success of these committees through adequate resources and encouragement. With a focus on funds, functions, functionaries, and most importantly, fostering a sense of belonging, our tradition thrives amidst the daily demands of our work. Let's champion such initiatives and honor the leaders who pave the way for a more inclusive and supportive workplace culture. A big shoutout to all the Committee heads Keshav Kaviti, Mikey Wyatt, Jennifer Trewitt, Deepthi Kommineni for your unwavering commitment towards furthering this culture. #TeamSpirit #WorkplaceWellness #InnovationThroughDiversity"

Building bonds beyond work. Networks and relationships are the nerve centers, and trust among teams is the glue that keeps organisations together. Teams that feel connected tend to accomplish more and do it more efficiently. When team members trust each other and form personal bonds, they are more engaged. They display a greater willingness to go beyond to meet work requirements, are more loyal, and are more likely to become brand advocates. An engaged workforce with personal bonds has clear benefits for individuals and organisations, including improved team performance, knowledge transfer, and more innovation. When employees have strong relationships with their colleagues, they are more likely to communicate effectively and openly. This leads to more efficient problem-solving, collaboration, and decision-making. A supportive work environment can reduce stress and increase overall well-being. It takes me immense pride to say that “We at JPMorgan Chase & Co. focus on going beyond work and building a relationship and bonds beyond work”. #buildingabetterworkingworld #wellbeingatwork #togetherness #positiveworkenvironment

Longevity in a team is a bit like cumulative interest for savings. The longer a team works together the better the performance. Economies of scale and fresh thinking from new joiners are important of course, but culture, consistency and collaboration from a well established team often drives success. I'm sure there are studies citing an optimum tenure - but suffice to say our team certainly hasn't started to tail off! I’m into year ten now at Telstra Purple, (when I joined it was ‘’Company85’’), working with the top team alongside clients, prospects, partners, vendors and alliances. Yes, we’ve had some key players move on – but it’s remarkable that the core management team has been stable and successful together for the decade I’ve been here. (And even with the leaders who have moved on, we still see them socially.)   My view is that the key to our success and stability has been trust – individually, as a team, and externally (especially with clients and suppliers). Building a positive reputation and earning the right to consistently win new business, repeat business, and referrals, is not simple or easy. It takes time, and trust.   I spotted this Forbes article citing 5 characteristics of a ‘’high trust’’ team, (thanks to Tony Gambill):                https://lnkd.in/ePn6KTmG   I recognise all of them in our local SLT, and in turn our wider organisation, and ‘newbies’ alike. ·      Clear Goals and Roles ·      Establish Accountability ·      Address Bad Behaviours Of High-Performers ·      Team Members Feel Valued And Heard ·      Invest In Relationship Building   Hats off and thank you to my colleagues and friends – looking forward to the next chapter as we drive growth in our new sector model, focussed on international clients. Onwards and Upwards.   This talented Company85 team is still working together, now steering the future of Telstra in EMEA: Bradley Hopkins, Carina Stanford-Hotson, Duncan Kaye, Joe Breen, Jon Littlefair, Mark Worts, Natasha Burch, Rob Robinson, and Steve Watterson.   #culture #team #innovation (picture credit AdobeStock)

When you have a strong set of core values, you can attract and retain a team who share your values, and you can build a culture that is based on trust, respect, and collaboration. This can lead to increased satisfaction, productivity, and innovation. Link in comment #Virtualassistant #VACT

Why celebrate risk-taking in teams? Celebrating risk-taking in teams encourages a culture of innovation and resilience. It signals that taking calculated risks is valued, even if the outcomes aren't always successful. This approach fosters an environment where team members feel safe to explore new ideas and challenge the status quo, leading to creative solutions and breakthroughs. #SupportServicesGroup #BetterWithSSG #BPO #ContactCenter #CallCenter #CustomerService
