This document outlines the goals and plans of a teacher leadership group at Downers Grove South High School. The group aims to establish online cross-departmental collaboration among teachers as the school transitions to a 1:1 Chromebook environment. At their first meeting, the group establishes norms and protocols. They then identify goals, driving forces, and potential barriers for their initiative. Finally, they assign tasks to each member to take action on before their next meeting, such as creating an initial Google Community format and gathering topics for collaboration. The overall goal is to foster improved teaching practices and digital learning skills among staff through their online collaboration initiative.

Article 1:
Team Leadership/Management Style
Part 1: According to the Sarin and O’Connor (2009) article, certain style and goal structures of team leaders have a strong influence on internal team dynamics. Based on your research within the article and textbook, as well as your own experience, what team leader management style would be most effective in leading a team in which you were a member?
Part 2: DeRue, Barnes, and Morgeson (2010) found that team leadership style effectiveness depended on the level of charisma exhibited by the leader. Drawing from the article and the textbook, have you ever worked for a charismatic leader? What style (coaching or directing) did that leader administer? Was he or she effective in leading you as part of the team?
Answer:
Part 1:
Participative leadership style would have been the best management style for our team which was working on a project to improve our e-commerce platform. With participative leadership style, team leaders have an opportunity to involve their team members in the decision-making process, consult their team members and ask for their inputs. Participative leadership generates a special type of trust that enables team members to take ownership and the responsibility of the project outcomes (DeRue et al., 2010).
An effective team management style has much impact on the internal dynamics of a team. Communication behaviors, collaboration and conflict resolution strategies are the key elements of the internal dynamics of a team. Communication involves the exchange of information between individuals working in a team. High communication quality and frequency have been associated with greater team performance and productivity. Collaboration is the extent to which individuals within a team work together to accomplish a particular task. Since a team is made of individuals with different perspectives and functional backgrounds, the probability of conflict is very high hence the need to incorporate conflict resolution strategies (DeRue et al., 2010).
Part 2:
According to (Sarin & O'Connor, 2009), a charismatic leader is the one who uses personal abilities to induce extraordinary influence on his followers. They are skilled at upgrading the performance of the team and seek radical reforms to accomplish the goals efficiently. I have been working for a charismatic leader for two years now.
He has been effective in leading our team since we promptly meet the goals and objectives of our team. Also, team members have high emotional attachment and involvement with him. Lastly, we experience high job satisfaction which is much essential in developing an effective team. This results in low-stress levels and low job burn out since members of the team have an opportunity to work by themselves without micro-managing.
Article 2:
Answers:
PART1
According to Sarin s. et al., (2009) a team leader is a person who has the most important role of creating a work environment inside a team who will not only motiva.

Effective communication is essential for business success. Managers rely on communication to plan projects, organize work, and monitor progress. Communication allows managers to share necessary information with team members and ensure everyone understands their roles. It also promotes motivation and confidence as employees are informed and their attitudes are positively shaped. For an organization to be effective, proper communication methods must be established and barriers to communication addressed. Communication is vital to business functions like planning, organizing, leading, and controlling.

Board members of the Naval Surface Warfare Center saw it necessary to come up with a communication audit committee to make a report on communication for the organization. The main purpose of the report was to seek for facts and also opinions and come up with recommendations to improve external and internal communication in the organization. Effective communication is a tool that enhances efficiency in the company. The primary source of my information was based on questionnaires which were given out to ten members of the organization. Below are the results obtained from the questionnaires.

Role of communication in business
Communication is essential for business success. It enables managers to complete key functions like planning, organizing, leading, and controlling by establishing information sharing processes. Effective communication allows managers to understand project requirements during planning, communicate plans to team members, and set up systems for delegating work and achieving goals during organizing. It is also important for leading and decision making by providing credible information. Overall, proper communication methods are necessary for an organization to be effective by promoting motivation, building confidence, establishing discipline, and supporting management responsibilities.
Teacher Leadership in Action Part 3 - Mike McGinnis
This document outlines the goals and plans of a teacher leadership group at Downers Grove South High School. The group aims to establish online cross-departmental collaboration among teachers as the school transitions to a 1:1 Chromebook environment. At their first meeting, the group establishes norms and protocols. They then identify goals, driving forces, and potential barriers for their initiative. Finally, they assign tasks to each member to take action on before their next meeting, such as creating an initial Google Community format and gathering topics for collaboration. The overall goal is to foster improved teaching practices and digital learning skills among staff through their online collaboration initiative.

Article 1:
Team Leadership/Management Style
Part 1: According to the Sarin and O’Connor (2009) article, certain style and goal structures of team leaders have a strong influence on internal team dynamics. Based on your research within the article and textbook, as well as your own experience, what team leader management style would be most effective in leading a team in which you were a member?
Part 2: DeRue, Barnes, and Morgeson (2010) found that team leadership style effectiveness depended on the level of charisma exhibited by the leader. Drawing from the article and the textbook, have you ever worked for a charismatic leader? What style (coaching or directing) did that leader administer? Was he or she effective in leading you as part of the team?
Answer:
Part 1:
Participative leadership style would have been the best management style for our team which was working on a project to improve our e-commerce platform. With participative leadership style, team leaders have an opportunity to involve their team members in the decision-making process, consult their team members and ask for their inputs. Participative leadership generates a special type of trust that enables team members to take ownership and the responsibility of the project outcomes (DeRue et al., 2010).
An effective team management style has much impact on the internal dynamics of a team. Communication behaviors, collaboration and conflict resolution strategies are the key elements of the internal dynamics of a team. Communication involves the exchange of information between individuals working in a team. High communication quality and frequency have been associated with greater team performance and productivity. Collaboration is the extent to which individuals within a team work together to accomplish a particular task. Since a team is made of individuals with different perspectives and functional backgrounds, the probability of conflict is very high hence the need to incorporate conflict resolution strategies (DeRue et al., 2010).
Part 2:
According to (Sarin & O'Connor, 2009), a charismatic leader is the one who uses personal abilities to induce extraordinary influence on his followers. They are skilled at upgrading the performance of the team and seek radical reforms to accomplish the goals efficiently. I have been working for a charismatic leader for two years now.
He has been effective in leading our team since we promptly meet the goals and objectives of our team. Also, team members have high emotional attachment and involvement with him. Lastly, we experience high job satisfaction which is much essential in developing an effective team. This results in low-stress levels and low job burn out since members of the team have an opportunity to work by themselves without micro-managing.

According to Sarin s. et al., (2009) a team leader is a person who has the most important role of creating a work environment inside a team who will not only motiva.

Effective communication is essential for business success. Managers rely on communication to plan projects, organize work, and monitor progress. Communication allows managers to share necessary information with team members and ensure everyone understands their roles. It also promotes motivation and confidence as employees are informed and their attitudes are positively shaped.

Haley DiscussionI previously worked within a private University
Haley Discussion:
I previously worked within a private University system that holds several locations throughout the country. The school holds a reputation of social progress via education; additionally, its mission is closely aligned with environmental justice. While the specializations vary by campus, the most highly enrolled programs were those pertaining to ecology, sustainability, and environmental studies. The University’s mission is to, “provide learner-centered education to empower students with the knowledge and skills to lead meaningful lives and to advance social, economic, and environmental justice.” Unfortunately, like many institutions of higher education, the University was struggling to remain financially solvent. Over a 10 year period, the school’s flagship location in the Midwest, which almost exclusively offered masters-level programs in education, saw nearly a 70% enrollment decline after their state changed requirements for educators within their state.
In an attempt to expand on program offers and ultimately increase enrollment, the University was researching industries expected to see growth, and program offerings that would create pathways to those industries. After months of research, the president of the University held a town hall to share out the task force’s findings, as well as next-steps in imagining new programs. Of primary interest to the taskforce was the prospect of creating a commercial trucking school, wherein truckers could earn commercial licenses, credentials, and college credits. Upon hearing the news, staff and faculty were irate; they were disgusted that administrators would even consider such an option, when freight shipping and trucking have sizable negative impacts on the environment. Many argued that creating commercial trucking programs would be in direct opposition to the institutional mission, vision, and values.
In comparing this communication to Vaughn’s article, it seems as though University leadership demonstrated ineffective communication processes and stakeholders had lacking trust. While the institution was financially struggling, many saw this plan as a prioritization of money over educational imperatives. As shared by Vaughn, “It’s always best policy to start with the truth and then you don’t have to worry about covering a lie.” (2012, p. 5). While the executive team didn’t outright lie to stakeholders, many saw the initiative as being disingenuous to institutional values. The communication was overall ineffective because leadership failed to consider stakeholder opinions and weren’t successful in drafting a plan that aligned with the institutional mission. Because the communication approach was top-down, it failed to consider or integrate the opinions of staff or faculty. Had executive leadership have invited the perspectives of stakeholders earlier in the process, they may have saved time and the emotional energy of employees.
I ended up leaving the institution shortly after th ...

Managers and effective communication are closely intertwined and important for organizations. As a manager, communication skills are critical for achieving goals, leading teams, delegating tasks, and resolving conflicts. There are various methods of communication including face-to-face, telephone, written, and virtual interactions. Barriers like cultural differences, emotions, skills, and perceptions can interfere with understanding but can be overcome with clarification, skills, and understanding different perspectives. Open and transparent, goal-aligned, two-way, and scheduled communication helps information flow effectively in organizations. Technology enables faster, more efficient, global, and collaborative communication for managers and organizations. Contemporary issues include disinformation, privacy, multicultural challenges, and information overload.

- 1. PAU L I N A K O R D O N I S Collaboration and Communication
- 2. Our Sorority: Alpha Phi on Clemson University’s Campus We currently have 232 members ranging from Freshman to Seniors Since we are such a large group, it is difficult to always communicate effectively As officers switch out each year, documents are lost in transition and communication becomes lost With effective media tools, our officers could communicate more effectively with each other and the entire chapter!
- 3. Reasons for Collaboration Collaboration is imperative to the success of any organization Without positive collaboration there is little hope for growth within the organization that we have dedicated so much time and effort If the officers in our organization do not collaborate well, the work that is completed during their term will not be useful for future officers With effective media tools, the officers that follow each year can continue the progress made over the previous yearthe organization that we are so proud to reprent!
- 4. Current Problems Each year as our officers switch over and a new term begins, documents are lost and not being passed down to the incoming officers Most officers keep their department documents on their personal computers and during officer transitions documents get lost along the way If this became less of a problem, the new officers could focus more on other aspects of their departments instead of recreating documents that had been created previously
- 5. The Importance of Using Media Tools For the new officers that take over this term, we should use media tools that will allow them to collaboratively create documents The officers could work together to improve the documents that were in place so that our organization can run even more effectively They could also determine the best way to store these documents for future officers so that our organization can continue to grow To effectively collaborate as a team, it would also be beneficial for the officers to use media tools that make communication easier!
- 6. Media Tools to Be Used Google Docs The use of Google docs will allow officers within each department to collaborate on their specific events These documents will also allow executive board members to better communicate with us as an entire chapter For example: Officers can create documents for members to use when they want to sign up for events. This way officers will know who is attending and the same documents can be used year after year The best part is that it is FREE!
- 7. Media Tools to Be Used GroupMe This media tool can be used to allow officers to communicate as a group and it is much more efficient than using group text messages or email It can hold as many individuals as you want in one single group message The members of the group can also “like” other officers messages if they agree with a decision or topic discussed Example: If quick decisions and topics need to be discussed, officers can respond like text messages no matter what type of phone they have The best part is that it is FREE!
- 8. Media Tools to Be Used Basecamp This media tool allows the administrator to create different department tabs so that each department can have their own section to discuss information An officer can only view the information that is in her department and she can add documents that can be saved for use by a future officer This tool is great to collaborate on because it allows the officers to communicate in a single forum that notifies you, through email, when a new message thread has been created or a response has been posted The media tool is not free, but it is a great tool because documents can be stored so that they do not get lost in future transitions!
