Therefore, the team appraisal system must be unique in its methods. Members must have a clear understanding of the team and their role in order for the team to function and rewards and evaluation process should be determined and be clearly defined so that each team knows what the expectations are. Each team will undergo internal processes to create team charters and establish procedures to deal with conflicts such as social loafing and to overcome obstacles. Team member performance and rewards will be dependent upon each individual member creating a peer pressure to excel and discouraging social loafing.
