The Power of Team Culture

Culture-Driven Team Building,

Behind the success and failure of teams lies team culture. But what exactly is culture? How and why does it contribute to success and failure? In this course, you learn how to recognize aspects of team culture of which most people are typically unaware. It is often these seemingly unimportant aspects that have the greatest effect on the outcomes of group tasks. Your recognition of them enables you to form, join and lead teams more effectively. You also come to appreciate the role of ritual and symbols in the daily operation of teams, as well as in situations of change and crisis. Knowledge of the ideas and information in this class enables you to be a better team player and a more effective team leader.

What people are saying

team culture

enjoyed the lecturing, clear and good guidelines Good course to understanding the effectiveness of Team Culture The topic is very interesting but th as a president of a cultural club, i loved learning more and more about culture and about leadership and working in a team.

I have gained more understanding in Team Culture from several examples.

Good information regarding team culture, how you can create and how it affects your daily work- / personal life.

Interesting to consider team culture from an anthropological perspective, but it was also obvious that the instructor's perspective is one of white male privilege.

very helpful and I enjoed the all the subjcts have been discussed very easy and helpful Excelent Course Initially I started the other course, Building High-Performing Teams, because realizing the The Power of Team Culture is actually the first course in Culture-Driven Team Building specialization by Penn.

I figured I gotta take them in the right order :) The Power of Team Culture proved to be an excellent course about what teams and culture are and what forces are affecting culture in different ways.
