The reading suggests that having a team of people benefits a lot in many organizations. However, the professor in the lecture did not agree with this idea. The professor believes that having a group may not have so many advantages as the reading said.
At the beginning, the reading indicated that the organization with a team of people can make decisions more quickly than other organizations for a wider range of knowledge, expertise, and skills. On the contrary, the professor said it is rigid to believe a group of people can make decisions effectively because the team members may have so many different ideas and they will not reach a consensus very quickly.
Then, the reading support that members may feel good for their participation in a group process. But the professor query that those talent members cannot receive enough rewards for the achievements is owned by the whole team. The mistake individuals made are also need whole team to afford.
Finally, the reading believes that the group can make creative decisions for individuals having more chances to show their ideas. The professor argues that individuals may be ignored by the team members who are very influential in the team.
