Reflecting on that experience or one you know about, describe the factors that lead to successful, effective teams (Leadership and Structure, Climate of Trust, Performance Evaluation/feedback etc.). Referring to your text, live chats, Intellipath and outside research, respond to the following:
  • If the example is a positive experience on an effective team, describe the factors that contributed to that outcome. Highlight the key factors that most impacted team effectiveness. After researching the topic of effective teams, and any team can improve, explain one area of improvement for the team.
  • If the example regards an ineffective team with problematic dynamics, describe the key areas the team needs to address to move toward being an effective team.  Which improvement areas are the most important and why?
  • Organizations use both manager and group decision making processes depending on the situation. Applying the text, explore the strengths and weaknesses of group decision making.
