Jamie's Kitchen: Fifteen Lessons on Teamwork

Jamie's Kitchen: Fifteen Lessons on Teamwork  featuring Jamie Oliver, focuses on the key stages of team development: forming, norming and performing. It follows Jamie's young chef trainees as they move through these stages to come together as an effective unit.  The program identifies four easy-to-remember learning points so your team can apply the trainee's experiences to improve their own team skills.

1. Get It Straight- forming-when the team members are put together for the first time. The goals and expectations of the team have to be clearly established.
2. Get On Board-storming-individual strengths and weaknesses start to emerge as team members work out how to support each other.
3. Get Stuck In-norming-the team has to work out how to resolve conflict and solve problems as well as dealing with practicalities such as how taks are shared out.
4. Get Better-performing-when the group is functioning as a true team. The question for the team now is: Are we learning all the time, not just from the good things but also from our mistakes?
