team management
[edit]Team Management A team can be defined as people working together to achieve a common objective. Their membership is determined, and their activities are also specified, while their size may be large or small. Every team member is supposed to contribute to the team’s cause to make it successful, but the group is responsible as well for its success. In an organization, there are many teams which a person can be part of, some which may be permanent or temporary; such teams include cross-functional ones, which combine people from various departments, virtual teams, whose members are located in diverse locations, and project teams, which are period-defined and created to achieve a specific goal. Teams serve different purposes in a firm, accomplishing tasks deemed too complex or significant for an individual, and are used in activities requiring a variation of expertise, skills, and also specific knowledge. For teamwork to become achievable, there are processes to be followed to ensure teamwork, including transitional process, where the mission and goals are established, action process, where milestones are monitored, while coordination and support to team activities is done. The interpersonal process entails confidence building and motivation of team members, while conflicts arising within the process are also dealt with to limit disagreements over any issues. The effectiveness of these teams can be measured by how it accomplishes its aims in a manner meeting all the standards. Effective teamwork needs certain conditions to ensure every member’s contribution points to success. Such features include mutual trust, shared values, requisite skills, an inspiring vision, and rewards for goals achieved.
The benefits to be received from effective teamwork include combined efforts, which yield higher efficiency and division of tasks and roles, leading to greater effectiveness. A team leader should possess skills to motivate the members and maintain the standards required. There are theories which explain effectiveness such as the character traits theory, behavioral theories, contingency theories such as Path-Goal theory which describes a manager’s reaction to situations, and the power and influence theory such as French and Raven’s theory which analyzes how leaders attain and use their positions of power. They can be applied in emergency situations, when the managers are required to lead by example. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ferdnand84 (talk • contribs) 12:30, 25 July 2018 (UTC)
