With the collaborative approach that IJI and its partners are recommending, team success criteria include:
-
Strong commitment to others and commonly agreed-upon goals and tasks
-
Interdependent work: each person’s work linked to the others
-
Collective and individual accountabilities, acceptable team behaviors and adequate resources to perform work as a team
Although determining the critical success factors are an important part of
the responsibility of the entire team, there are some standard factors that the fiscal agent and IJI feel are essential:
-
Project aligns with the organizational strategy and begins with a comprehensive need assessment
-
Project has a detailed plan with milestones and sample deliverables approved by all parties
-
Design is based on user requirements where the budget and schedule are realistic and appropriate. Skilled staff are committed for the project’s duration with roles and responsibilities clearly defined.
For partners to successfully work together and achieve outstanding levels of performance, win-win outcomes, market success and continuous improvement, we have adopted the following shared set of behaviors, understandings, strategies and actions as a standard:
-
People first, everyone is included
-
Teamwork
-
Mutual trust, respect, accountability & appreciation
-
Open and honest two-way communication
-
Information sharing with facts and data
-
Cooperative continuous improvement, “find a way”
-
Sharing of risks and rewards
-
Compelling long-term vision
-
Long-term commitment
-
Recognition of cultural & diversity differences
-
Global participation
-
Clear and compatible goals
-
Ethics and integrity
