In many organizations, perhaps the best way to approach certain new projects is to assemble a group of people into a team. Having a team of people attack a project offers several advantages. First of all, a group of people has a wider range of knowledge, expertise, and skills than any single individual is likely to possess. Also, because of the numbers of people involved and the greater resources they possess, a group can work more quickly in response to the task assigned to it and can come up with highly creative solutions to problems and issues. Sometimes these creative solutions come about because a group is more likely to make risky decisions that an individual might not undertake. This is because the group spreads responsibility for a decision to all the members and thus no single individual can be held accountable if the decision turns out to be wrong.
Taking part in a group process can be very rewarding for members of the team. Team members who have a voice in making a decision will no doubt feel better about carrying out the work that is entailed by that decision than they might doing work that is imposed on them by others. Also, the individual team member has a much better chance to “shine,” to get his or her contributions and ideas not only recognized but recognized as highly significant, because a team’s overall results can be more far-reaching and have greater impact than what might have otherwise been possible for the person to accomplish or contribute working alone.
The reading claims that in many organizations assemble a group of people into a team is the best way to approach certain new projects. Moreover, it talks about many advantages of this way. However, the lecture explains that this is not necessarily true through an example from one company.
First, the reading says that a group of people has a wider range of knowledge and skills. also, because of the numbers of people involved, a group can work more quickly. In response, the lecture reveals that in many teams of the company there were a lot of people who does not really works in the project and at the end have the reward as a whole group which was disappointing for those who really did a good job in the project. In another hand, surprisingly, the work did not go as quickly as it was supposed because the members need many meetings to have an agreement about a decision.
Second, the reading says that team working can be very rewarding for members of the team. also, the individual team member idea has a much better chance to be recognized. In contrast, the lecture talks about how things goes in the opposite direction in this company, each team has almost one or two influencers members who affect the team decision. For example, when they give a wrong decision regardless of members who oppose them, their decision will be taken.
