iii. Inspired Team: We are working hard to keep our team inspired and motivated. We have encouraged staff to suggest new ideas and strategies. We are also working to improve staff benefits including a group health insurance plan, retirement benefits and more training to facilitate opportunities for advancement from within the organization.
Motivating a crew is very important in succeeding as a team. Everyone needs to be acknowledged and understand what they can bring to the team.
There are several ways in keeping the team motivated and committed for the cause they are working together. Some of my techniques include the following issues:
These leaders are very trusting of there members abilities and will let the team get on with the task at hand, They give very little input with the day to day running of the team.
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
In the government-sponsored organization of Skills for Tomorrow it is important that employees and management realize that effective team management is the key to successful operations. Having a more effective team in place will create a more successful organization by

Our talented workforce reflects and champions all of our strengths and diversity – personal, professional, and educational. We offer a workplace that values and rewards leadership, collaboration and innovation, and personal and professional development.
Team work and open communication is, as I have said and will say numerous times, vital to achieving organisational objectives and creating a positive working environment and a ‘can-do’ attitude.
While team dynamics and cohesion play a great role in the success of any team, we believe that external factors (situation, system) can profoundly affect behavior and performance. The importance of creating an environment that supports great people and encourages them to support one another so the whole is far greater than the sum of the parts is undermined by this statement. Even a great team can’t be guaranteed to fix a mediocre idea or come up with good ones every time. The system/environment have a big role in the success of a team.
1.1 Explain the importance of the team having a common sense of propose that supports the overall vision and strategy of the organisation
The biggest area for improvement is the recruitment and training of the members. Since the largest resource the group has is its work force, the utilization of these resources could yield great results in the future as an organized group.
Today’s workers are constantly looking for something refreshing and new. This thirst for new challenges has posed a problem for many employers, who must learn new ways to train and maintain employee motivation at high levels.
There are a host of motivation factors to consider for the leaders and managers of teams due to the complexity of people. This complexity means similar actions taken in familiar situations can have varied outcomes from different people. This is often due to the underlying foundations of values and beliefs formed over people’s lives. At the heart of the individual is the core beliefs that become deeply engrained once adulthood is achieved, some of them are derived from culture and society mixed with other personal and singular values. Surrounding our beliefs and values are our attitudes and feelings towards our experiences, these are often fluid to change depending on events and experiences. Finally, how we behave is the outward manifestation of these underpinning values and attitudes and this behaviour will have direct correlation with whether or not any tasks carried out are effective. Consequently to change anyone’s behaviour it is necessary to alter the attitudes or values of a person to have a long lasting effect.
The basic foundations that makes a team succeed is the direction that focuses, energizes, orients, and engages all its team members in achieving a specific goal or purpose. How can teams be inspired if they don’t know what they’re working towards? Individuals have to care about achieving a goal, whether to gain extrinsic rewards, like recognition, pay, and promotions; or intrinsic rewards, such as satisfaction and a sense of meaning (Santanen, Briggs, & de Devreede, 2002). Creativity is a very important tool to have within a team. Without creativity the mission of succeeding can fall short due to poor problem solving abilities and skills.
One of the strategies to exploit human resource is to reward innovative ideas that are successfully implemented by the company. The company’s culture is guided by “hard work, dedication and a genuine passion for the work [they] do” (2U, 2015). They have created an atmosphere where employee celebrate even the smallest of triumphs and are encourage to be bold and fearless, make service their mission, strive for excellence, all while having fun and knowing that the work they are doing is making a difference and changing lives every
