In many organizations, perhaps the best way to approach certain new projects is to assemble a group of people into a team. Having a team of people attack a project offers several advantages.
First of all, a group of people has a wider range of knowledge, expertise, and skills than any single individual is likely to possess. Also, because of the nimbers of people involved and the greater resources they possess, a group can work more quickly in response to the task assigned to it and can come up with highly creative solutions to problems and issues. Sometimes these creative solutions come about because a group is more likely to make risky decisions that an individual might not undertake. This is because the group spreads responsibility for a decision to all the members and thus no single individual can be held accountable if the decision turns out to be wrong.
Taking part in a group process can be very rewarding for members of the team. Team members who have a voice in making a decision will no doubt feel better about carrying out the work that is entailed by the decision than they might doing work that is imposed on them by others.
Also, the individual team member has a much better chance to “shine”, to get his or her contributions and ideas not only recognized but recognized as highly significant, because a team’s overall results can be more far-reaching and have greater impact than what might have otherwise been possible for the person to accomplish or contribute working alone.
Both the reading and the listening discuss about the working as a team for a project. The former claims that working as a team is the best approach to a new project in three ways, but the lecture challenges each of these points. First of all, the author of the passage contends that working as a team is beneficial because there might wider range of knowledgeable people. In addition, the group members possibly possess very expertise skills, and the response of the group will very fast. In contrast, the professor argues that it would not good for all group members. According to the professor, some of the members of the group will get credit without much contribution while hard working members will not get enough recognition that they deserved. Second of all, the reading asserts that working in a group will move forward the project without much doubt. However, the professor rebuts that the group project might not move quickly as there will be many disagreement. Every person have different perspective. So the group member will not much confident what they are doing. This incongruency will curtail the output of the project. Finally, the passage claims that the individual member will do much better in a group. Nevertheless, like the two suggestions before, the professor in her lecture proclaims that this recommendation is not feasible because, only one or two members influence will weaken others confidence. Some great ideas will be ignored.
