Professional Setting Team Building

Good communication and team work is essential in all aspects of my job, and requires some basic rules, such as: Objectives within the roles and responsibility, and objectives of the job, being able to make decisions, sharing information and knowing when it is necessary and when it should be kept confidential. Also, being able to resolve conflicts is a big part or working partnerships, as not everyone is going to get along with each other and sometimes people need to just be able to listen and come up with a compromise. It is all about delivering good quality social care to the clients, whilst maintaining strong working relationships. With

No matter what the profession (healthcare, teacher, blue collar worker), certain values are innate in professionalism. To me, professionalism involves the Three Cs: Competence, Character, and Chemistry. I believe strongly that everything you do should be done to the best of your ability, your character cannot be separated from integrity, how you treat others defines your character, and everyone deserves to be treated with

Inter-Professional Team Model (PAARP) is used throughout the life cycle of a team and includes 5 phases describing actions of the interprofessional teams: purpose, assemble and charter, align, resource, perform. The division of labor is based on the scopes of practice of team members and takes into account KSAs of team members. In the PAARP model, actions of leadership give purpose to the group, and consistency of action by the leader is essential. Identifying purpose through goal-setting plays a large part in this theory and team members accept the goals of the team as their own and take responsibility for their part in achieving them. This model is applicable across health professionals through an understanding of each discipline’s roles

A team is a type of organizational group with independent members. They share common goals and work together to meet these goals (Northouse, 2016). The organization where I work has teams at various levels for maximizing the success. These teams include, core teams, coordinating teams, patient aligned care team (PACT), contingency teams, ancillary teams, support and administration teams (Veterans Health Administration [VHA], 2015). Some of these teams have interdepartmental members while others have intradepartmental staff. Successful teams have a concrete blueprint and that contributes to their effective functioning. There are several factors that affect these teams irrespective of the level. The factors comprise the presence of a clear task, separation from non-team members, authority, and stability. The factors like working conditions, team process and bridging the gaps are concerns for the executive level. The complexity of the task, individual skills and their diverse specializations affect the selection of the team members. The team’s meaningful interactions decide their success. Independent teams can help promote friendly competition within the organization and lead to better staff performance. An efficient leader can design and launch an effective team through careful planning and selection of the right members. He/she keeps the factors that affect the success of the team in mind when designing the teams. The patient care units

Reflecting on my skills, I believe I have excellent social, communication and language skills. These skills are essential in any customer-facing or team work oriented job.

I enjoy the prospect of continuous professional development in not only my practice yet the whole teams to ensure all service users are receiving excellent care whilst looking for improvements in professional practice and processes in developing the company. This may be demonstrated through good information governance, mutli-disciplinary meetings, ward rounds and other social work forums. It also evidences good effective multi-disciplinary team work whilst providing opportunities to share ideas, thoughts and provide feedback to each team

Teamwork is a quality that I believe is crucial for the medical field. I am a collaborative person and working well with others is a strong attribute that I and workers in the medical industry possess. Also, I do not discriminate nor do I ever refuse to work with anyone because of personal feelings. This is a significant quality that one should possess in order to provide safety for their

Being the only nurse for head start in the Dakota-Ramsey County Mary’s patient population is quite diverse. Despite this they all meet on a common ground, low socioeconomic background. Whenever poverty and children are in the same sentence the end result is not very favorable as “hunger and malnutrition are not unusual among the poor” (Wilkinson, 2016, p. 697). However being in the metropolitan area with easier access to resources helps to lighten the outcome. The chronic illnesses that Mary’s clientele have are asthma, anemia, seizures and kidney failure. In order to enhance positive client outcome Mary has to find creative way of meeting the needs of each individuals while keeping in mind the fact that the student are from low income family.

Another important component is compassion. Being able to show professional compassion is a key component to any type of professional job. Being able to empower patients/clients to achieve the highest level

Communication skills are another attribute that contributes to the professionalism of a healthcare administrator. A healthcare administrator must be able to communicate effectively with people at all professional levels, specialties and roles. They have to have good communication skills that can help with listening to the patients, empathizing with the patient and even provide information about the diagnosis and treatment in a way the patient can understand (NCNA, 2013). My communication skills allow me to listen to my client and talk to them in a way they can understand. My skills allow me to talk to my client’s doctor, other healthcare professionals, family member and my manager with confidence and professionalism.

　　　　An effective care for patients can be achieved through the collaboration and team work within the certain health care teams to provide a focused and shared learning in health professional education, which can help enhance the outcome of the patient’s needs.1 Working with different professionals and care givers can lead to issues. This can be looked upon so that the patient is given good service and enhanced care.

Recently promoted to President of a national transportation and logistics company, I quickly realized that the first and most important achievement must be to create and develop a high performing team with a culture of team building that will spread throughout the company. Selecting the right people for the management team is essential to the company’s success and the selection process will include consideration of the tasks required of the team members, the people best suited for the team, and the team’s structure. In addition to creating the team, I will identify how the team will be developed to ensure success in meeting their goals. The development areas I will focus on our establishing the desired culture, team communication and succession planning. Last, a competitive incentive pay and recognition program will be implemented to properly compensate the team members for individual and group successes.

Aristotle is credited with stating the whole is greater than the simple sum of its parts. This also represents the definition of synergy. Synergy is the unified working of the sum to create something greater than the individual components. For instance a car engine is comprised of an engine block, belts, hoses, spark plugs, and other miscellaneous components. Individually these components are not going to propel a vehicle however when put together and fed some fuel the components create the oomph needed to support transportation. In sports and business the cooperation and collaboration of people in organizations is no different. The people within these groups must be working in a unified manner toward a common set of goals and objectives. This common set of goals and objective provides the end point so that a team of people have the necessary oomph, to achieve outcomes that would otherwise be unattainable by a single individual.

How do these strategies apply to a team that you are or have been a participating member?
