Learn how to optimize the collaborative strengths and manage the weaknesses in your team
Achieving high performance in an Agile work team does not happen by accident. By understanding how each team member contributes most effectively to the team’s problem solving and decision-making, we can optimize performance across the team, play to each member’s strengths and ensure that associated weaknesses are allowed for and managed. Belbin® Team Roles gives us a scientific basis to achieve a well-balanced team and provides a common language for discussing individuals’ contributions. “How can we work more effectively together” becomes a data-driven discussion, which reduces common barriers to problem solving such as domineering , defensiveness and lost contribution. Join this session to find out about the Belbin® Team Roles and discuss the ways in which they are deployed in high-performing Agile teams.

A practical overview of the Forming, Storming, Norming, Performing model of team development. This is also the first presentation in a new Business Models section of the Life's Too Good website.
No matter the size, industry, or purpose of an organization, effective teamwork is a key component of success. Teams today are more diverse than ever, with individuals of different generations, backgrounds, and mindsets coming together to meet constantly increasing demands for productivity, creativity, and collaboration. In most cases, people want to succeed, and want to contribute to the success of the organization and of their colleagues. So why is internal conflict so prevalent, and such a barrier to positive collaboration and trust?
One cause of the continuous conflict: when individuals try to resolve problems, they address each other’s behaviors – the things they can observe on a surface level. To develop more effective teams, we must help people understand each other’s motivations – the hidden drivers beneath the surface that give us energy (or drain us of it).
Each individual has a unique motivational DNA that not only drives their own behavior, but also shapes how they interpret the actions of others. Revealing these motivations and developing a team-wide understanding of how these motivations align or mutual understanding of them can be a catalyst for transformational team development.
Join MRG for a 60-minute webinar in which we explore how to:
• Separate ‘what’ from ‘why’: understand the difference between behavior and motivation
• Measure motivation: explore a tool that goes beneath the surface to uncover hidden drivers
• Harness the power of a common language: develop a supportive, value-neutral vocabulary talking about motivation
• Foster awareness and acceptance: create a deep level of self-awareness and a culture that stops rating people as good or bad - and starts celebrating them as different
Invest an hour to discover powerful new strategies to develop healthier, happier, more productive teams.

Learning Objective
TEAM BUILDING
Group: A collection of two or more interacting individuals with a stable pattern of relationships among them, who share common goals and who perceive themselves as being a group.
Essentials of a groupSocial interactionStable structureCommon interestsPerceive themselves as part of group
Team: A team is a small number of people with complementary skills who are committed to a common purpose, performance goals, and approach for which they hold themselves mutually accountable.
This definition highlights the essentials of a team or in other words the team basics. Here the focus or emphasis is on three characteristics – small number, complementary skills and commitment. These are what basically differentiates a team from a group and makes a team something much more productive and result oriented than a group. We shall analyze them:Small number – five to ten peopleComplementary skills – appropriate balance or mix of skills and traitsCommitment to a common purpose and performance goals – specific performance goals are an integral part of the purpose.Commitment to a common approach – team members must agree on who will do a particular job & develop a common approach.Mutual accountability – at its core, team accountability is about the sincere promises we make to others & ourselves – commitment & trust.

Effective Team Decision-Making Process Teams are particularl.docxtoltonkendal
Effective Team Decision-Making Process
Teams are particularly effective in problem solving as they are comprised of people with
complementary skills. These complementary skills allow team members to examine issues from
various angles, as well as see the implications of their decisions from a variety of perspectives.
In this section we will look at a process that can help teams solve problems and make ‘good’
decisions.
In essence, teams make decisions using problem solving techniques. Thus, the process largely
rests on the selection of a course of action following the evaluation of two or more alternatives.
To effectively navigate this path, the following step-by-step approach1 can be used.
1. Recognize the problem. Teams must see and recognize that a problem exists and that a
decision needs to be made to move forward. While on its face this step appears elementary,
many teams do not always recognize that there is an issue that needs to be addressed due to
issues such as group think.
2. Define the problem. In this stage, teams must map out the issue at hand. During this step,
teams should:
o State how, when, and where members became aware of the problem
o Explore different ways of viewing the problem – different ways of viewing the
problem can lead to an improved understanding of the ‘core’ problem
o Challenge any assumptions that are made about the problem to ensure that the team
fully sees the ‘real’ issue at hand.
3. Gather information. Once the problem has been defined, teams need to gather information
relevant to the problem. Why do teams need to perform this step? Two reasons: (1) to verify
that the problem was defined correctly in step 2; and (2) to develop alternative solutions to
the problem at hand.
4. Develop Alternative
Solution
s. While it can be easy for teams to ‘jump on’ and accept the
first solution, teams that are effective in problem solving take the time to explore several
potential solutions to the problem. Some ways to generate alternatives include:
a. Brainstorming. During this process teams are encouraged to come up with as
many ways as possible to solve the problem at hand. While brainstorming can
help generate creative solutions to problems, a few guidelines are needed to help
it work most effectively.
no criticism of any ideas during the brainstorming phase;
all ideas, no matter how silly, get recorded;
get past the sillies - sometimes very creative, and viable, solutions come after
people have made what appear to be ‘silly’ suggestions.
b. Ask Questions. Network with colleagues internal and external to the
organization to get their ideas and suggestions.
c. Explore. Read journals/books, go to networking functions, and attend
conferences etc. that cover similar issues. Also be prepared to go outside of the
healthcare domain. Other industries may have faced similar issues and their
solutions can provide insights for y.

Guidelines and Format for Writing-up Your OD Change Proposal
Background
The OD Change Proposal (OCP) is developed directly from your field observations and journaling. In your field observation you are using Bolman & Deal’s assumptions for the four frames (structural, human resources, political and symbolic) to analyze your organization or a unit within your organization. From those observations your are journaling whether the assumptions are “operative” in your organization and if so recording a couple of examples. The field observation and journaling is also designed to give you perspective, understanding and insight into the organization that goes beyond limited or technical problem solving to an adaptive organizational change strategy.
Step One
Select one or two issues (these may be problems or other dysfunctional behaviors and actions in a variety of areas –planning, decision-making, communication, leadership, etc., as well, as opportunities or need for adaptive change – responding to client/customer/community needs, improving and developing new programs, etc.) and follow these through the four perspectives.
We will discuss these issues in our telephone consultations.
Step Two
You will use your observation and analysis formulated during the course and posted on the Student Dialogue Forum to develop recommendations, and design interventions to address these issues using one assumption from each of the four frames.
Step Three
Write-up your recommendations and design intervention that reflects your application of the four frames and the understanding and rationale for the change. Here you also want to connect any underlying resistance to change and what needs to happen to move the project forward.
So you are looking at:
1) A presenting issue(s), problem or opportunity in your organization;
2) How does one of the assumptions from each of the four frames relate to that issue? The assumption drives the rationale for the change.
3) Your recommendations and design for what you feel will make an effective proposal for change.
4) What is the potential resistance and/or obstacles you see in implementing this change?

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
