Team Communication 101 - checklists, culture and CCT

Saison 2 · Épisode 1

jeudi 2 novembre 2023 • Durée 01:19:08

Communication is arguably the most important criteria for a team to exist. Without communication we can't share a goal, distribute tasks or celebrate a success.

In this epidsode, Andrew introduces research which considers how teams are created through communication, and Mark reflects on the less obvious but powerful impact that cultural differences have on communication in teams.

In this episode we talk about:

Teams are constituted through communication - the way team members talk to each other forms the substance of the team's work. This is called the "communicative constitution of teams" (CCT).
Communication happens on multiple levels in teams - strategic, tactical, operational, real-time. Different cadences of communication serve different purposes.
Teams are nested structures of individuals, pairs, triads, groups. Communication flows through these structures.
Cultural differences affect how communication is interpreted. Teams should be explicit about communication norms to avoid misunderstandings.
Conventions of language can negatively impact teams if not consciously examined. New team members can provide an outside perspective.
Checklists are a form of standardized communication that represent strategic priorities, not incompetence.
