I would guide others in the choice of roles, based on their strengths and areas of interest. I would help choose assignments that fit the individual and their goals for the project.
1. Suggest two (2) key ways in which the proposed teamwork project would affect organizational performance.
The teamwork project would allow the group to see how teamwork functions and how to decide on roles. This helps the team gain knowledge in the area they are building, with firsthand knowledge of how the process works. From this, the team could build on the process, while keeping the strategic plan and the vision in focus. The basis of the training could be reinforced because of this practice of teamwork to create the training.
It will help the employees better understand the power of teamwork and the synergy and different approaches teamwork brings. With the template of how the teamwork project advanced, the group could apply the lessons learned to the training lessons and give real life examples, based on the company. This teambuilding effort would then seem more applicable and more comfortable for the employees. It would also show the power of working in teams.
