Get Your Students Hired
From my experience in the USAF, I realize how important team management is. This lesson had many useful techniques to become a successful leader and utilize a team effectively
Team managment is always important because it is always changing depending on the new project, members, educational opportunities presented to the members, etc.
Team management is a continuous process of re-assessing team goals, responsibilities, and dynamics.
I like the emphasis of remembering the overall purpose, active listening, and highlighting the qualities in those on your team. I do wonder about ways to remain present as well.
Groupthinking is a new term to me. I can really see how this has happened numerous times over the years. It is not a constructive situation, and our organization needs to address it and make a change so that everyone feels free to express themselves and as a group we can make sound decisions.
Team dynamics is different for all teams. How the team performs and meets goals can be significantly affected by how to group works together. In my experience each is so different that it can take special leadership styles and understanding to make it work. I agree Suzanne that different approaches are often needed.
Comment on Eddy Hooker's post: I agree but being i think one should find a balance between being focused and being hyper focused, which could cause you to miss the other issues arising in your day
as part of the mazement team it's the job of the magemnt team too insure that every thing is correct and there is a compete understanding what is said
It is so important to remember that encouraging teams as a whole, in addition to individual employees is critical. Leaders must be able and willing to assess and reassess the team culture frequently and then respond accordingly in leadership.
I have definitely learned some valuable information about managing teams. I will certainly be applying some of these skills to form more cohesive teams in the future.
Gained so much information on how to motivate and support my team. I cant wait to put this all into action!
As a new member I have learned that groupthink is something that can be influenced by different factors, such as a cohesive team culture, a strong and directive leadership style, time constraints, high stress levels, and a lack of diversity in perspectives.
I will keep the meeting on time with clear communication and goals. I will communicate the value of each member and the diversity of the team.
