Cross-Department Team Building That Reduces Silos

Useful design choices

• Mix groups across departments deliberately
• Give tasks that require information sharing
• Rotate leadership moments
• Close with inter-team agreements

What not to do

Keep the same cliques together all day and call it integration.

Measure lightly

Track whether handover complaints and escalation noise drop in the following month.

Plan it

Use a team building request with silo symptoms described in plain language.
