As a manager, you can promote strong teamwork by simply helping your employees to feel like they&rsquo;re part of a group. One way to do this is to cultivate core values in the workplace so that they feel connected.

You can also help introduce a mindful approach to teamwork by using these strategies when interacting with employees:

<ul>
	<li>Make eye contact</li>
	<li>Inquire about their day</li>
	<li>Note their interests</li>
	<li>Demonstrate gratitude and appreciation</li>
	<li>Find common ground</li>
	<li>Use their name</li>
	<li>Let them teach you</li>
</ul>

By doing these seven things, you can turn your employees into a cohesive group that exhibits strong teamwork and cooperation. They&rsquo;ll be able to connect through mutual respect and a sharing of core values in the workplace.

Not only that, but everyone will feel more motivated to work together. When you connect with someone, it creates trust. This trust will bring employees together which will foster better communication and a greater commitment to work.

For example, when you demonstrate gratitude, it makes the person receiving that gratitude feel valued. When you find common ground with someone, it creates a bond and a commonality. By letting your employees teach you, you demonstrate that they are important.

Team building can be greatly improved by promoting mindful interactions. Strong teamwork and core values in the workplace will go a long way toward developing positive relationships among team members.

Do these seven things on a regular basis and you will find that, over time, your teams will grow closer together and thus become more effective.

Remember, everyone wants to feel part of a group. Your goal as a manager is to make everyone feel like they belong.
