Professional development is an integral part of a child care professional's many requirements and adds a lot of value for their daily work. Building a solid team of staff members, however, goes well beyond professional development. It can’t hurt to provide professional development in areas related to being part of a team however if that is where the so-called team building stops then your staff will never reach their full potential.
Building a team of professionals that care about their colleagues and their work can be challenging but it is important to think outside of the box and not take shortcuts.

Important things to know:
It takes time

There will be challenges
Not everyone will get along all of the time but creating an environment where staff members are comfortable in working through challenges together is really the heart of a successful team. Think of challenges as tools and not stressors.

It’s worth the effort
When a strong team is established there are few things that can break them down. If the leadership remains and the bulk of the team members remain it will be easy for newcomers to join and want to stay. Above all of that it makes success more attainable for everyone.
