Bates College + Lighthouse Career Associates Presents a New Virtual Professional Development Program Series!<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Results-Driven Teamwork<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the modern workplace, team members must navigate an environment that is in constant flux. That\u2019s no easy task, and employees must be flexible, socially adept, and relationship-savvy in order to navigate interpersonal challenges and achieve collective gains within and across their teams. But solid teamwork doesn\u2019t happen overnight, and it\u2019s not necessarily an innate skill. Teamwork must be developed and practiced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this presentation, we\u2019ll dive into the skills needed to be a better teammate and to develop a strong, results-driven team. Participants will walk away with practical tips that they can employ immediately to improve their teamwork skills and help their teams become more effective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
