Angel works for the Microfinance CCA, which has recently acquired the Microfinance Union Express. Prior to the acquisition, Microfinance CCA and Microfinance Union Express were bitter rivals, fiercely competing for market share in the region. Following the rancorous takeover, numerous staff were laid off in many banking areas, including IS. Key individuals were retained from both banks’ IS areas, however, and were assigned to a new consolidated IS department. Angel has been made project manager for the first significant IS project since the takeover, and she faces the task of integrating staffers from both banks on her team. The project they are undertaking will be highly visible within the organization, and the time frame for the project is somewhat demanding. Angel believes that the team can meet the project goals successfully, but success will require that the team become cohesive quickly and that potential conflicts are avoided. What strategies do you suggest that Angel implement in order to help ensure a successfully functioning project team?
