teamwork
Work Team Dynamics The subject task force is in need of direction and basic understanding of the goals they were assigned to accomplish. In today’s fast-paced business environment, work is best done in teams. Yet, many organizations consider teams a waste of time, effort, and resources. Dueling egos, scapegoating, hidden agendas, and barely hidden conflict can derail teams. As companies are forced to rely more heavily on teamwork to compete, capabilities in building and leading teams have become crucial to success. Is our team able to identify with the task or even as a team? As a consultant, I will need to provide them the perspectives, skills, and tools to assess what is going right and wrong in our group. I would accomplish this by implementing training immediately. Training will teach the team how to plan a strategy so the group can work in unison. The training would encompass two areas. The first would address the issue of how to achieve team dynamics. If they understand the dimensions such as identification, interdependence, power use, social closeness, conflict management and negotiation. For example, Eric doesn’t seem to care about the identification process or anything else other than “just getting down to it”.
