Let's Talk Teams

Most of us know what it's like to have an important project with pre-determined deadlines. What happens to your team's morale when those deadlines are missed, or extended over and over? In this episode, Michael and Chris discuss the delicate dance managers do to keep the fire alive and morale high when moving project deadlines.

Show Notes

Project deadlines are a fact of life in most businesses, and when facing missed deadlines managers have to understand that each person on their team may deal with it individually. This can make it difficult to keep morale high and the project moving forward. So how do we remain realistic and upbeat?

In this episode Michael and Chris talk through a current deadline they're facing that faces this exact issue.

What is Let's Talk Teams?

We couldn’t find the podcast on building great teams so we made our own to document and share what we're learning along the way. Let’s Talk Teams is a weekly show where we talk about leading, building, and contributing to great teams at work. Some episodes are a peek behind the curtain at the conversations we’re having at Uptick as our teams grow and adapt. Others will be interviews with managers or discussions about a recent blog post.
