90 Minute setting ground rules Training session

Setting down ground rules for teams within businesses and for meetings can be highly effective.

By identifying how teams would like to interact with each other, team members recognise the importance of respecting the individual needs of others. This is why team and business ground rules are central to the performance of any team. These are different from the ones you have in your staff handbook. These can be team specific and are set by the team.

The key thing to bear in mind is that team ground rules must reflect the expected behaviour of team members and be in line with the core values. They are the structure for how everyone interacts and behaves toward each other within the team.
