Cross-Departmental Communication

Suggested Strategy: Implement accountability and team engagement

through group coaching. Make sure your meeting is solely devoted to

be a coaching session.

Suggested Questions:

→ Third Party Question: How do you think a third party observing our

team would describe our communication from one department to

another?

→ Self-Actualized Question: What does a team benefit from when every

member is in the loop, knowing exactly what is happening with each

member of the team?

Suggested Activities:

→ Brainstorming: Make a list together of how the team members think

they would be currently described as a team regarding their

communication with other departments and their teamwork with other

departments. Then have them give you how they would ideally like to

be described as a team. They should then come up with ideas together

of how to reach that ideal description together as a team between

departments.

→ Practice: Create a plan together of how the team should report in on a

regular basis to the team of what is currently happening with their

activities with other departments.
