    Organising and Planning Skills

     Being organised is essential to getting tasks done.

     If you don’t know what needs to be done, and by when, it’s quite hard to make it happen by your deadline.Shapers, Implementers and Completer-Finishers are all characterised by good organising skills, and can usually be relied upon to put in place strong systems for managing projects well.

            

           Decision-Making

     Being able to make decisions is also crucial to moving things forward.

      Although it may be important to take time to gather information to ensure that the  decision is right, there may come a time when any decision is better than none.

     Group decision-making often requires compromise, and sometimes a willingness to give up one’s own point of view in favour of the group’s shared decision.

     Shapers and Monitor-Evaluators are both good decision-makers.

     Shapers, however, tend to make their own decisions quickly and then may struggle to compromise.

     Monitor-Evaluators tend to look for the right decision from the available evidence, and may be slow to make a decision if there is a shortage of evidence.

     Task-focused people are often adept at problem-solving, especially if the problem relates to the task.

      Plants look for innovative ideas to solve the problem, and Implementers will turn ideas into practical action.

     Shapers will see the ‘big picture’ and the overall plan, making sure that the solution to the problem does not result in a change of direction.

          And Finally…

          It is important to remember that all team working situations are fundamentally about working with other people.

• Personal Skills for Body and Mind

Perhaps the most fundamental of all skills are those concerned with self-preservation - that is, staying healthy in both body and mind. This section of SkillsYouNeed covers some ideas that can help you maintain a healthy lifestyle. My blog pages will  help to make sure that you are able to feel good about yourself.

Without good personal (or intra-personal) skills, you are less likely to be able to develop good interpersonal, presentation or leadership skills.
