Editor's Notes

  • #4 The Literal elaboration of the word TEAM is Together Everyone Achieves More
  • #5 Now lets watch a video
  • #8 Let’s come to the question why teams have become so popular
  • #9 There is a huge confusion amongst people about team and group. Because both group and team are consist of two or more than two people. Can You tell me that the groups we are already working in for Organizational behavior and other courses, is that actually group or team? SABIHA: I think it is group. Me: You Think so? Okay please sit down. To know the differences between the group and team we need to know the basic definition of these two
  • #10 work group is a group that interacts primarily to share information and make decisions to help each member perform within his or her area of responsibility. No joint efforts are given in work groups. Work groups have no need or opportunity to engage in collective work that requires joint effort. So their performance is merely the summation of each group member’s individual contribution. A work team , on the other hand, generates positive synergy through coordinated effort. The individual efforts result in a level of performance greater than the sum of those individual inputs. The extensive use of teams creates the potential for an organization to generate greater outputs with no increase in inputs.
  • #11 So now my friend I think you know we are working in a team not a group.
  • #13 Goals: Goal of work group is to share information, on the other hand goal of work team focuses on collective performance. Accountability: Accountability of works in groups is individual, but in a team accountability of works is both individual & mutual
  • #17 Typically, these responsibilities are planning and scheduling work, assigning tasks to members, making operating decisions etc
  • #23 Every members of a team has some key roles to play
  • #24  Coordinating and integrating the work of others .The linker role consists of three types of skills -
  • #25 And ensures that the team will spend time discussing ideas around the problems being faced.
  • #27 Assessor offers insightful analysis of options and assesses the applicability of new approaches
  • #28 and assign accountabilities and responsibilities.
  • #31 . They take pride in maintaining both the physical side of the work and the social side.
  • #32 When faced with a difficult problem, the starting point for team discussion is advising.
  • #46 Work design is a important part In A Team-Effectiveness Model. A good Work design requires variety of skills, freedom and autonomy of worker , identity and significance of task.
  • #49 Task identity is ability to complete a whole task
  • #54 1) Conflict when teams are performing non routine activities,, critical assessment of problems and options then Task conflicts are helpful but Interpersonal conflicts are almost always dysfunctional. (2) Loafing: Tendency of certain members of group to get by with less effort than what they would put if they work alone
  • #56 Now look, here a caution: Teams are not always the answer
  • #57 There are three test to see if team is the best option for a particular work Now Let’s watch a video clip, some of us have already seen it before, but now lets see it again from the “team” perspective
