When you think of a team you usually think of sports teams such as; the Toronto Maple Leafs or the Toronto Blue Jays. However, teams are not just created for sports, but are also used for charities, school projects, in everyday business, etc. We define a team as a group of people that come together to perform a task. Each member of the team would bring different skills required to complete the task. Teams can be big or small depending on there purpose. "Someone even observed that as an acronym TEAM means "Together, Everyone Achieves More"" (Guffey, Rhodes, & Rogin, P, 2011, pg 48). This being said, teams are not always considered effective, sometimes team members can clash causing for lower productivity, dissatisfaction, frustration, and not being able to meet goals.
How do you feel about teams? Do you like working in teams or would you prefer to work independently?
