Team Work

What is Team Work?

The dictionary describes teamwork as “the combined action of a group,
especially when effective and efficient”

Why Team Work?

Teamwork unites people: - When a group of people work together in
a healthy and positive environment, they are more likely to bond and
develop friendships. Such is the social behaviour of human beings.

4
  Teamwork promotes efficiency:--
When people work in groups, it significantly improves their efficiency.
The simple reason is that in a group, the workload is shared and doesn’t
put pressure on a particular individual.

 Teamwork fosters a learning environment:-

One of the important aspects of teamwork is encouraging a learning
environment. When different people come together to work on the same
project, there’s a chance of learning from one another.

5
  Teamwork offers better opportunities for feedback:-
Generally, employees don’t take criticism too well from their managers,
let alone their peers. This creates a hostile work environment where it’s
controversial to give feedback to peers.
 Teamwork helps in resolving issues faster:-
Teamwork environment promotes a more open and friendlier group of
employees. This induces a better problem-solving workforce as
everyone can share their different perspectives.

6
SKILLS IN TEAMWORK:
Teamwork skills are essential to the success at work, no matter it is the
industry or job title. Working well with clients, colleagues, managers
and other people in your workplace can help to complete tasks
efficiently while creating an enjoyable environment both for yourself
and others. An organization that emphasizes good teamwork skills is
typically a healthy, high-functioning workplace.
# Why teamwork skills are important?
It will be required to work alongside others in every industry at every
level in the career. Doing so in an empathetic, efficient and responsible
manner can help you accomplish career goals, grow the resume and
contribute positively to the organization. It can also helps in build
rapport with others.

Skills required in teamwork:

1. Communication
Communication is the foundation of effective teamwork. Whether
you’re working on a presentation with your classmates or spearheading a

7
new project at work, it’s important to talk openly and honestly with your
group members about expectations, deadlines, and responsibilities.
Establishing open lines of communication promotes trust and makes for
a positive team environment. While disagreements might occur, being
upfront and respectful in your communication with other team members
will help you resolve issues quickly.

2. Time management
Time management, accountability and responsibility are all equally
important for your career as they are in your academic life. Project
managers, for example, must have strong organizational skills in order to
set manageable goals for their team and keep others on track to meet
their deadlines. Nurses must also demonstrate strong time management
skills, prioritizing and delegating tasks so that they can spend more time
on the patients who need extra care.

3. Listening
When working in a group, it’s important to keep an open mind.
Recognize that your team members may see things from another
perspective, and hear them out. Listening to other points of view can
help you see multiple sides of an issue, including ones that you have
never considered before. This allows you to be a better colleague and

8
leader, to anticipate needs and challenges before they arise and to
respond effectively when they do.

4. Leadership
A leader who works well with others – both within his or her own
department and across departments – can help spread knowledge and
resources, develop new leaders and contribute to an organization’s
success. Leaders can demonstrate strong teamwork skills by promoting
collaboration, acting as a mentor or coach for their employees and by
empowering others to learn, grow and advance.

 Team building
Activities

TEAM BUILDING
Working together is one of the most integral parts of performing any
activity. It is an ongoing process that helps a group to unfold into a
cohesive unit, it not only helps in the completion of a certain task but
also helps individual teammates to bond, motivate themselves and
others and build trust that produces harmony among members. Many
of the team-building exercises aim to address and unveil
interpersonal difficulties within the group that assist in better
understanding of a team.

10
 Team Building Activities
DIFFERENT WORKSPACES

1.HOME
Two Truths and a lie
The key guidelines for the game are for
each member of the party to present
themselves by telling two truths. The
comments must not be personal, life-
revealing, hobbies, interests, or past
experiences that make any person special.
Lies can be scandalous and wacky or sound like a reality that makes it tougher on
the others. Everybody posts their declarations one by one. The party must guess
which declarations are true and which declarations are false. You should keep track
of who predicts the most lies right, or just play to get acquainted - it's up to the
party
Coin logo
During this activity, the participants
have to empty their pockets, wallets,
and purses for any coins and place
them in front of them on a certain
object. Advise each team to make a
logo using the coin in front of them in
just one minute. Each group leader
will analyze the findings and what it
tells about the team logo. This
practice not only encourages self-
awareness and shared knowledge but
also helps partners in a personal way to get to know each other.

11
2.SCHOOL/COLLEGE
Escape the Classroom
Develop a game of "Class Escape." Students must work in groups to flee from the
school. They must search for their code on the computer and in the classroom for
hints and passwords Scavenger challenges, sports, or school games invite pupils to
collaborate together: strategic strategy, project division, and success interacting.

Shrinking Classroom
Here, students need to be structured in a
manner that suits a fast diminishing
classroom. Two classes divide the
classroom. All of these classes compete.
Both of them are in a certain area. For eg,
with a cable or small traffic cones, a
mentor reduces the standing area.
Students ought to find a way to
accommodate everyone in a restricted
space. As an instructor, by may the field, you begin to push their boundaries. The
party in the "classroom" is the winner.

3.WORKPLACE
Game of possibilities
Time: Five or six minutes
Participant number: one or two
small groups Tools required:
Random products

Rules: It's a perfect team

bonding game of five minutes. In each party, give a single individual an entity.

12
Somebody must go up to the party to show their use for this device one at a time.
What the player is showing, the rest of the team would guess. The activist cannot
talk, and protests have to be original thoughts, probably insane.
Goal: This team bonding workout encourages imagination and ingenuity for
individuals.

Scavenger Hunt
>1 hour Time:
Two or three small classes Number
of members Pen and paper: tools
needed
Rules: Split into two or three teams.
Rules: Create a list of activities that
each team will perform as a group.
Tasks may be to take a selfie with an
insect, take a snapshot of a building
or object around the bureau, etc.
Offer each team the list, along with a
deadline for completing all
assignments. Anyone who carries
out the fastest tasks will win! (The
job challenge is that you can even build your own dot scheme if you like it!)
Objective: Perfect team building activity that helps break up workplace cliques by
motivating people to collaborate alongside friends from other teams, agencies, or
just social circles.

Here are some of the videos that will guide you on how to execute the following
activities, and make you understand the importance of teamwork-

 Multi-Cultural and Dynamic Teams

Organizational Commitment
“The more variety, the better society”
1. More respect and understanding for different cultures
2. Different perspectives are welcomed
3. Alignment to working in a global environment with
varied time zone
Happens through:
1. Team building activities- informal sessions
2. Cross team projects
3. Cross functional projects
Example: As I spoke to an employee of WNS Company, he shared me this
instance of his organization, wherein they have an initiative called "Think-
tank" where people
from all across the
globe form a single team
to find a solution to a
common business
problem once every
week.

14
Secondly, organizations are
performing “Outbound Activities”
so as to focus on team building
amongst employees and keep the
sportsman-spirit flowing across all
levels in the organizations.
Outbound activities, as told by my
sister, focuses on games, activities
and events such as off-site trips, visit to different corporate cultures, which then
helps to motivate the
employees stay connected
and work in sync
throughout the journey.
During this pandemic,
companies have now come
up with virtual activities
such as Birth Map that
lets everyone on the team
learn something new about
each other, Community
Coffee Breaks easy but
effective way to catch up by
scheduling a 15-minute
period every day or week
when folks on your team can
join a video chat held via
your team management
software, etc.
This video will help you
understand and get a clear

15
picture of the initiatives being taken care of by organizations for better and
effective teamwork.

 ONE IS BETTER
THAN ONE
A significant elements that decides the
achievement of an association is its
group that support and make strategies
for accomplishing a specific objective.
All organizations empowers
cooperation as a result of its various
advantages that incorporates work
proficiency, better connection with the
employees, increased accountability, improved productivity, greater morale,
enhanced flexibility, and development.

Apple is an effective partnership that grasps cooperation. Since the organization

was established organization has grasped collaboration, which has been a critical
factor in deciding its achievement in the innovation and interchanges industry. The
advantages of cooperation can been seen the regions, for example, innovation,
product advancement and worker maintenances.

BUSINESS ASPECTS THAT ARE IMPROVED BY TEAMWORK.

One of the fundamental favorable circumstances of collaboration is expanded

advancement. Apple pioneers actualize approaches and the executives procedures
that establish a workplace that advances imagination and development in the
company. The organization's corporate culture is established on coordinated effort
and participation among representatives for better working of the organization and
accomplishment of the goals. Each division at an organization involves little
groups that cooperate to accomplish certain objectives.

Collaboration among representatives is a key factor that decides the achievement

of Apple's items on the lookout. New items are planned, produced and promoted
by various groups that include representatives with various abilities. For example,
a group could incorporate specialists, fashioners, innovation specialists,
showcasing specialists, and the board masters who assume various jobs that
guarantee convenient finishing of products. One of the reasons why Apple conveys
another item into the market each year is the solid soul of cooperation that
administers representatives .Teams meet week after week to audit their
20
advancement and manage difficulties that individuals experience. At long last,
collaboration improves responsibility and duty. Apple doesn't make boards of
trustees to manage the exercises of various groups. Each group has a pioneer who
reports straightforwardly to the board with respect to the group's advancement.

One Person in Charge

For each task or work stream Steve Jobs was certain that there should be only one
individual in control. This one individual was then at last responsible for
conveying their work stream. To put it another way, the buck halted with the
individual who was responsible. This is a straightforward yet powerful rule that is
regularly absent in huge numbers of the groups that I work with. At the point when
it's reasonable who is answerable for what, there is less disarray, less governmental
issues and less disappointment. All the more critically however, there is greater
straightforwardness and more activity.

Work to One Goal

Steve Jobs clarified that the entirety of his groups should run after one goal. His
aptitude was in illustrating that objective and rejuvenating it such that each
representative could identify with. However, when done well it goes above and
beyond than that. The work is then separated into various ventures or work
streams, which is truly procedure being executed.

You will no uncertainty be beginning to perceive how the collaboration puzzle

begins to meet up to uncover the image of a high performing group. The work is
split, one individual is accountable for every component, groups meet consistently
for refreshes and to see how their work influences the entire, they trust each other
and challenge each other to locate the best arrangements.

Meet Once per Week

Under Steve Jobs venture groups at Apple met once per week to refresh each other
on all parts of their activities and tackle difficulties with the aggregate capability of
the entire group. Self-evident, straightforward, compelling; yet regularly
disregarded. Numerous groups do this when things are working out positively yet
stop when things get going or unpleasant. This is insane as the most significant
time for groups to meet is when things get going and upsetting. In the event that
your group is to be truly fruitful, at that point group meetings must be ensured as
one of the most consecrated group exercises.

TEAM PLAYER SPIRIT - WITH EXPERIENCE

Team spirit in some terms we can say is an attitude, which enables people or
employees of an organisation to work together for completion of one common
goal. Team spirit requires three major common things between different members
of an organization for a better team player, mainly:
1. Camaraderie – Mutual trust and friendship among people who spend a lot of
time together.
2. Cooperation – The action or process of working together to the same end.
3. Collaboration – working practice where individuals work together in a team to
achieve business goals and benefits.

Team spirit is integral to build a successful team.

22
Experience is something which plays a major role in building a team. Team
working is a vital way for completing any project and for developing or refining
the skills. Experience will help to:

1. Understand the objective of team – To understand what the team want to achieve
together.
2. staying flexible – the more flexible your members in the team, the better results
you will get.
3. To keep a positive attitude – we cannot do it and we can do it , bringing positive
environment in the team.
4. Maintain coordination – a good team has better coordination for achieving the
goals, which comes with experience.
5. Remove chaos or conflicts which arise in the team – A experience team and its
members will always try to remove the chaos and conflicts.
