Yad Vashm Memorial Case Study

4. What, if anything, did the foremen do well that helped the group's conflict management and decision-making process?

No effective control and goal orientated leadership was visible. Nowhere during the four months did she ask for progress reports from the stakeholders, if she took any interest in the project and ask for progress reports, she would have seen that the project was behind schedule. No milestones were set to make sure that project goals were on track.

As in every team there will be differences of opinion and therefore stress in the working group. During this case study we saw the largest differences between Sasha and the HBS Business Plan Team. The team was excited about competing in the contest not only for the experience but to practice their skills for future business opportunities as well. In this sense not only were the differences between the musicians and the HBS students an asset, it was their differences that led the musicians to seek out the HBS students in the first place. Tension between Dana, Henry, and the Russians was seen in the following meetings when Sasha felt his material was ignored. In that sense their differences were a major liability. Dana and Henry were also getting annoyed by the fact that they were doing the majority of the work even when they had other things to do. As time went on they learned how to operate better and became more aware of how to look past

Overall, this group project went very well and was completed on time due to the fact there everyone including myself assigned ourselves with a task role, relational role and from the start had individual roles present such as leader, compromiser, and gatekeepers in the group that made it

This group project was a lot of organization. At this moment, we had a lot of exams and

Although, I hate group projects and my group members are procrastinators we were able to pull it all together

This project was chosen simply because the members of our group saw a need that we

Our first vote ended in failure because we started with a distributive bargaining mentality and not completely sharing information; which Dr. Shal instructed us to avoid doing. Most of us, me included, were reluctant to provide more information as to not give up all the power. But we quickly realized that we wouldn’t reach a satisfactory agreement without sharing more and creating a trusting atmosphere. We did much better on the second round of vote, as we reached a six-way agreement. We actually were the only group to have reached an agreement on

Court held that the state did not violate any contract by creating a second bridge. The court saw fair abilities for both bridges to have multiple travel choices per society.

Everything continues to happen but just for a second something's so captivating it's like everything freezes. That's what can happen when someone sees a memorial if it is designed correctly and it's put in the right location. In “Monument Wars: Washington, D.C., the National Mall, and the Transformation of the Memorial Landscape” Kirk Savage says a monument is,”A pilgrimage site, where communities of believers actually come together in the act of occupying a holy site, seeing a relic, reenacting a sacred event.” When standing in front of a monument there should be a feeling of being taken out of time. It should make people feel like they are somewhere really special and that they are experiencing something amazing. It should also create a “small community” out of all the strangers coming to see it. In “Preserving Memory: National Holocaust Memorial Museum Controversy” by Christine Musser it discusses a different issue that can occur if location is not considered. The article is about the controversy over putting the Holocaust museum in the United States. Some individuals believe that because the United States didn't do enough to help the Jewish people during the Holocaust we shouldn't have the museum. Musser says,”The controversy grew from the Jewish and non-Jewish communities, primarily due to the fact that a museum dedicated to the memory of the Holocaust would be built in the United States, who did little to stop the

Project team members can more easily develop a shared sense of identity, resulting in a stronger commitment to one another and to the success of the project. Consistent focus on a single project with the same group of team members gives people a greater appreciation of one another’s strengths and limitations, as well as a deeper understanding of and a stronger belief in the value of the intended project results.

The Portsmouth/ Kittery Memorial bridge preplacement project benefit-cost analysis was a very large project. The bridge goes along United States Route 1 over the Piscataqua River links two different cities which are in two different states, New Hampshire and Maine. The Memorial Bridge opened in the early 1920’s making it a historical bridge, which needed a lot of improvements. One of the interesting things about this bridge was that it was jointly owned by New Hampshire Department of Transportation (NHDOT) and Maine Department of Transportation (MDOT). After conducting years of study it was determined by both states that the bridge did not need rehabilitating, but needed to be replaced. The cost-benefit analysis covered several

• The objectives of the venture are not 100 per cent clear and communicated to everyone involved.

The meeting in addition can bring on board the Client or the Client’s representative(s). The client’s representatives in most cases include the Architect, Quantity Surveyor and the Engineer.
