If someone needs help, no one pitches in to assist. If a team member has a problem, no one helps him to solve that problem. Just yesterday one of the team members had an emergency and asked if someone on the team could have a call with the sales team so she could leave early. No one offered to help so Martha jumped in to assist. Martha had to do something. This was a bad experience for everyone frankly and some folks already were talking about getting off the project. Plus she felt the event won’t be as good as it could if they just came together as a…

Congratulations! You and two classmates received an A+ on your group project. As you reflect on the process, you make a list detailing why you worked together so effectively. Which of the following statements relate specifically to the effectiveness of your group? Check all that apply. Using the course syllabus, the group made a checklist of what must be included in the project to earn the most points possible.

I was brought in as the project manager of an advanced vehicle development project during the detailed design phase. The previous project manager had to resign from our company due to health reasons. My customer was the U.S. Department of Transportation. I had a team of six automotive design engineers working on my team. When I came into the project, the first thing I did was to learn the advanced vehicle specifications and the deliverables’ timeline. Then I learned the responsibilities and capabilities of every team member. I went to Washington, DC from California to meet with my customer’s project manager and to generate a close rapport with him. According to the original schedule, we were about two weeks late and the project was running over budget by 6% when I took over. One thing that bothered me was that my customer’s project manager was accustomed to phoning my team’s design engineers and ordering minor variations to the specifications without my knowledge.
