Synergy and how to use it

I’m going to talk about synergy and its importance to organizations.
Synergy is a process where the interaction of two or more agents or forces combined effect is greater than the sum of their individual effects. Synergy leadership is a reality created by the conditional interaction between formal leaders and all other individuals creating value for the organization. The product of Synergy Leadership is a phenomenon having the combined effect of the relationships far exceeds the sum of their otherwise individual effects. (adapted from B. DePorter, 1992). The greater value of the combined effect results from individuals working together in mutually enhancing ways to achieve success by inspiring one another to set and accomplish both personal and organizational objectives.
Synergy is defined by Curley (1998, p. 70) as “an evolving phenomenon that occurs when individuals work together in mutually enhancing ways toward a common goal.” Synergy Leaders must take the responsibility for helping to establishing the environment where this kind of enhancing can take place.
When defining and understanding synergy we need to look to the past to try to understand the future by that what is meant is unclear and ambiguous. Synergy is not something we can hold in our hand but the term implies a multiplier effect which can allow the energy of individual work or service. “Fuller” was the person most responsible for making Synergy a common term.
Example: The leader must create a vision of the idealized organization first and articulate how team members can share thinking productively as a core competency to support the organizational structure.
Finally, Synergy goes beyond just team work. It needs perseverance, dedication and effectiveness to really accomplish synergy in the work place. And the leader needs to understand all these traits to establish a great work environment and accomplish the required goals.
