Humans are able to accomplish great projects by forming heterogeneous and complementary teams in terms of skills, knowledge and behavioural competencies. Studies agree cohesiveness is an important characteristic of high-performing teams and underline the existing correlation between cohesion and performance, especially when it comes to project management teams.
Cohesiveness is the strength and extent of bonds between members of a same team. It determines the motivation of team-mates to remain in the team and achieve the common goal. Due to its worthiness, it is of great relevance for leaders and project managers to understand how to create and promote cohesion in their teams. Cohesiveness is multidimensional, therefore needs time to be developed and it is more likely to occur in small size teams.
Although team cohesiveness is a crucial aspect in teams that reach high performances, it would be a mistake for team leaders to focus only on a single aspect. A number of other factors equally important contribute to the performance of a team.
