Identifying Team Members' Roles Each team member possesses both strengths and weaknesses. While the fewer the weaknesses the better it bodes for the team, it is not realistic to assume that all (or even any) team members would have nothing but strengths. Because the team members have come together to be part of a management consulting firm, though, they need to be able to meet client needs in a way that shows them to be capable. Many of the individuals are still in training for certain aspects of their jobs. However, they can currently be effective in those areas with extra guidance, and they can also be highly effective in the areas where they are already strong. It would be best for Joshua to take the reins, because he is good at leadership, time-management, oral communication, multi-tasking, problem solving, and delegating. In short, he offers nearly everything that is needed in a good leader or manager. As a second-in-command, though, he needs Michael. In any area where Joshua is weak or in training, Michael excels, and in any area where Michael is weak, Joshua excels. Between the two of them, they will make a formidable team with much to offer. Michael is also the only one who is strong when it comes to written communication, so the creation of reports, press releases, and anything else that will go to the public or the client in written form should fall to him. At a later date, others may be able to take over that task once they have been properly trained. Theah,
Moreover the correct distribution of roles can improve a groups dynamic by reducing phenomenon’s such as risky shift (Ridley, 2010), which frequently occurs with too many creative and risky decisions being made, this could be as a direct result of a team simply having too many of the plant
Within any successful team, you will find leaders, it need not be the manager, and it doesn’t have to be the same person all the time, you only have to look at any successful sports team to see that there are numerous leaders and within the team each person knows the role they have to perform at any set moment and can change as the situation needs. This has been well explained in the Belbin Team Architecture.
Many of us have seen that "Nobody's Perfect - But A Team Can Be" and we have seen a team produce a quality and quantity of work far higher than the sum of what the separate members could have produced on their own. The success of any Endeavour hinges on the behavior, talents, balance and cohesion of this management team. There are two main points when it comes to relevance of teams, the first is the recognition that human strengths usually bring countervailing weaknesses and the second is that some combinations of these roles have a greater probability of team success than others.
The members that I would choose for my team are: Jena Jaenke, My Linh Nguyen, and Linda Robinson. These 3 team members in particular have the multitude of skills necessary to be successful. Jena Jaenke has a background in Human Resource Management which is essential to creating an evaluation plan. She has knowledge on
$90,000 and above. This variation is mainly dependent upon geographic location and employer. GNP’s in California, Hawaii, and New Jersey, for example, have the highest salaries compared to those in mid-western and southern states. Individual salaries are further influenced by, and increase with, additional education and experience. Being a GNP brings additional rewards. There is the satisfaction of rendering quality care to a large and growing population that is in dire need of specialized care at this particular time in their lives. For me, it is the feeling of gratification that comes with knowing, that after a person has lived many years, I can be of help in making their final years as healthy and comfortable as possible, even when the need for palliative care arises. Most important, is the relationship that develops with the client, and the opportunity to learn from the experience with each individual.
Aspects Essential in Identifying the Appropriate Members for a Team and Ensuring the Team Is Successfully Launched
In healthcare today, where patient outcomes are dependent on effective interprofessional education, interprofessional collaboration and interdisciplinary teamwork (Milstead 2015 p 261), there is the need for better preparation of health professionals in teamwork (“Team 4” concept). The purpose of interprofessional education (IPE) and interprofessional collaboration related to “Team 4” concept is to show that healthcare providers and health professionals are just as important to patient outcomes as the physician (Milstead 2015 p 264). According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the ideas and concepts of IPE, is health professionals from many disciplines working together as a team towards the end goal of a better health outcome for the patient are pivotal, and must be included in medical education for all health care providers and health professional (Milstead 2015 p 261-264).
In this assignment, the role of a team leader working in a care home environment will be described. Then, the effect of transformational leadership theory will be critically analysed and evaluated within the human services and care home setting, using a situation where working together with external agency/agencies support the welfare of a vulnerable group, highlight the challenges, ambiguities and gaps of theory. In the care home sector, a team leader works alongside the manager and their role offers direction and inspiration to others (Law & Glove, 2000). Furthermore, the job requires following organisational policies and procedures in carrying out duties which include supervising and monitoring a team of care, support workers to ensure
The roles inventory activity was a great learning opportunity for us because most of us are from different counties therefore we have no idea what some of these professions are. This activity gave us a chance, to learn about the many things done by people from all different professional back grounds such as physician assistant, physical therapist, Optometrist or occupational therapist. After going over the spread sheet of different responsibilities that everyone in each profession has it clearly made sense as to how important interprofessional education is. There are many responsibilities that we have as pharmacists and those responsibilities are shared equally by the people of other professions as well. During interprofessional education we
My discussion this week will be based on my reaction to one of the questions which states that –
I like the idea of the "team accountability sheets" to keep the solutions at the head of their work routines. When one has control over one's own accountability, it is easier to implement the solution and to stick to that solution. Better to have it measurable in black and white then to leave it to chance that the servers' sense of doing what is right at the right time will be automatic. It's way too easy to get into a service routine that is monotonous without having it affect the lightheartedness needed to serve another human being with sincere smiles and good will. The only reason for that server to not want to do better at that point is because they are not meant to be a server in the first
It is the coach’s responsibility to understand where his team members fit within the team. This understanding will help us not only get the most out of the team, but it will also insure better team members. This will also help develop the Leader-Member Exchange Model. The “stars” and “learners” Gen. McDew discuses will become our in-group. We are going to naturally spend more time with these two group because it has an immediate impact on our organization. The “solid-citizens” and “deadwood” will become the out-group. I believe that understand the four areas of the team gives us a better understanding of how the out-group and in-group are formed. It also gives us a better picture on how to motivate our team, and hopefully guide the member into a more productive part of the team. Making the team stronger, and at the same time making the team members more fulfilled. It goes without saying that more a fulfilled member is going to be eggier to give 100 percent to their jobs. Over time this type of interaction with the team will take us from a leadership role to a mentoring role. We will have a better understand of what each member needs for motivation, and how we can better move them to the next
As one of the more experienced members of my learning team, I will have the responsibility of facilitating discussions, along with other qualified members of the team. Three team members including myself have been given the task of setting meeting agendas for specific sessions and ensuring that the group is kept on track. One less experienced member is designated as the 'secretary' to review notes after we meet. Another less experienced group member is given the task of keeping group members informed through email when we are not in meetings, and of reminding members of crucial deadlines.
The personal style and personalities of each member in a group may be influence their team effectiveness. Individuals will tend to play an important role in a group and depend on their personality and working group style. To improve a team and effectiveness in project or working, each team member need to understand the role of every member in a group. With 3 contemporary theories of team roles to use in our group is:
To have an effective workplace, order needs to be clearly demonstrated for staff to understand the role they are doing. This will allow the staff to have a better idea of how to perform to their highest ability. In order for this to happen, hierarchy in the work place has to be set. So staff in the work place knows who is clearly in charge of them. “The Belbin team role theory”, has allowed companies to take up test to see who is most appropriate for the role they are best fit for. By having this test staff will know what area of work they are best at and this will also help staff excel in the areas of work they are in (Carr 2002).
