Wendy Soon gives us 8 simple step we can follow to build a great, committed team( 8 simple steps to build a great, committed team, http://vorkspace.com/blog/index.php/8-simple-steps-building-great-committed-team):
  1. Know their expectations and needs, we need to know who’s your team, what they are looking for and what they need, why they are working with us at our company/ department, find out their short and long term career goals;
  2. Set Clear expectation from the start. Communicate your goals to the team as early as possible. Let them know from the first day what they are expected to do and achieve. Making the goals clear would help them set directions and allow them to self-gauge how they are performing to your expectations;
  3. Set bite sized goals. Big goals look impressive, but they are intimidating to work towards. One look at it might lead to an immediate desire to give up because it looks completely impossible. Instead, in combination with big goals (to inspire), set bite-sized goals to help maintain your team’s morale as you work towards that large goal. aving smaller, achievable goals makes the job less intimidating, and will help keep up the morale of the team;
  4. Train appropriately. Teams cannot be great at their job if they don’t know how to do their job correctly. Check that your team members are equipped with the appropriate skills. If not, make arrangements to train them up accordingly;
  5. Ensure effective communication. Effective communication between team members avoids frustration. It’s not just important for communication between you and them, but also amongst themselves;
  6. Go social. Great teams also have a sense of belonging. When team members enjoy working with each other, they are usually more satisfied, and less likely to want to switch to a different job;
  7. Foster a culture of collaboration. Make sure that people are compensated for collaborating, and not competing with their teammates. Make sure your team members have the right attitude towards one another;
  8. Reward regularly. Everyone likes to feel appreciated. Make sure your team members know you recognize their efforts. This can be monetary, non-monetary – or even better, both.


For sum, if an employee is affectively committed to their organization, it means they want to stay at their organization, they want to take part developing their organization as their career growing too. “The speed of the boss, the speed of the team” (Lido Anthony, an American automobile executive best known for spearheading the development of Ford Mustang and Pinto cars).
