Work in Team Environment

Unit Descriptor
This unit covers the skills, knowledge and attitudes to identify role and responsibility as a
member of a team.
Introduction
As teams (groups) have always been a central part of the organizations, they are gaining
increasing attention as potentially important organizational asset. Professionals rarely work
alone; they work with their colleagues and their managers or bosses. Accordingly, managers are
concerned with creating effective teams that make real contributions to quality products and
services and thus containing success of the total organization.
The evidence suggests that teams typically outperform individuals when the tasks being done
require multiple skills, judgment, and experience. As organizations have restructured themselves
to compete more effectively and efficiently, they have turned to teams as a way to better utilize
employee talents. Thus, the management of the organization needs to form teams and provide an
appropriate work guideline to accomplish part of the organizational activities effectively. This in
turn enhances division of work and decentralization of duties and responsibilities from the top
level management to the lower levels.
