Read the scenario and in a report explain the steps you would take to develop a competent team. Your answers should be based on the information contained in the scenario and what you have learnt in this study unit about team dynamics. Your report should be approximately 3000 words. It may contain an action plan, sample procedures or other types of documents to explain how you will lead this team.
You have recently accepted an employment position with a large, high profile jewelers firm. The organization manufactures, imports, and repairs jewellery for distribution to its many stores in all states. Your position title is Team Leader of Distribution and Warehousing – a frontline management position
There are 12 team members, from different backgrounds and with differing levels of expertise. Some team members have worked with the organization and in this division, for a number of years. Other team members are relatively new, while some have worked in other departments/ sections of the organization before being transferred to your division. The reason for your appointment is that departmental productivity (outputs) has not been meeting the organisation’s expectation.
The senior managers of the organization have identified some problems in the team:
Communication between team members appears to be strained at times
Levels of cooperation are falling
Communication with the other teams within the organization is not as good as it should be
There is no one currently taking on the leadership role
Prioritization of tasks appears to occur on and ad hoc basis
While each of the team members was selected for their role on the basis of demonstrated skills and expertise, they seem unable to work together effectively. Your initial role, therefore, is that of trouble-shooter, problem-solver and team facilitator. You need to bring this group of people together to form a cohesive, effective and productive team. How will you do this? Explain in logical sequence, what methods you would use to develop the working capacity of your team. Give reason for each of your actions and the expected outcomes. What are the time frames that these actions will occur within? What will you do if these measures do not work?
In your report consider:
Team roles and dynamics
The various stages of team development
The importance of agreed goals
Skills / competency analysis
The need to link team’s goals with organizational goals, KPIs and individual performance measures
Strategies to encourage input into planning and decision-making
The need for performance evaluations / reviews
Providing praise and constructive feedback
Reward and recognition
Constructive conflict
Trust, reliability, consistency and relationship building
The importance of, and appropriate formats for, meetings
Initiative, responsibility, motivation, delegation
The need to monitor, measure and evaluate the team’s development
Up-line communication
The need to develop efficient networks with other teams in the organization
Leader as role model
Remember that you are the new team member. How does the introduction of a new member impact on team dynamic
