Differences Make a Stronger Team*

Team members, no matter how similar everyone may seem, are different in many ways. Team members have different experiences, various skills and capabilities, and have a variety of perspectives. All of these differences create a team with a wide range of skills, insights, and problem-solving capabilities. Most importantly, this variety of experiences and perspectives are what enable any group to solve challenging problems, increase creativity, and meet the various needs of your customers or clients. This course will show you how to help your team understand the different backgrounds, skills, and perspectives of each individual team member. Your team will learn how to use these diverse capabilities to achieve both individual and team goals, and thus make a stronger team. By completing this course, you will be able to help your team know how each person is diverse and how these differences help make a strong team.
