Building a Better Team
Building a better team focus on the need for efficient teamwork in order to maximize project or business process success. The paper first investigates what constitutes a team environment, and then, puts forward an educational model/ framework in order to better foster a team environment. By using the ARTS tool, business and/ or project teams can develop evaluative and visual aids to build a more efficient team.
1. INTRODUCTION
Teamwork within and across organizations and cultures is a key criterion in the success of the development and implementation of new business modeling structures, data standards, and business process improvement initiatives. A lack of change management and cooperation at a team level is a primary reason for the failure of the initiatives. The inabilit
y for organizations, inter-organizations, and development groups to work as an efficiently functioning team can lead to failure or less than ideal results.
In this paper I propo to attempt the following tasks: first, to increa awareness of what best constitutes a team environment, and condly, to provide suggestions as to how to create the skills at an individual and team level necessary to foster this kind of environment. To better understand what constitutes a team environment, various examples/ levels of team environments will be examined. The ARJS tool will be discusd as a platfonn and a central framework around which workshops can be bad to help the individual and the team develop what I refer to as "team thinking" skills.
The paper will be divided into three major ctions:
• Exploring what constitutes a team environment
• Examining a process to help build skills at the individual level and the team level that will increa team work
• Brief discussion of how to utilize the ARIS toolt in the team building exerci
2. UNDERSTANDING THE TEAM ENVIRONMENT
跨越作文Teamwork can be defined as joint work towards a common end or goal performed by a group of people organized to work together. This definition of teamwork can be interpreted to allow for the possibility of individuals working on individual tasks with a common goal.
Individual organizations, development symposiums, and cooperative development groups often define their working environment as team oriented (Hammer, 2003).Common to mission statements of such groups is the definition of goals around which periodic meetings are held to update other team members on progress. In contrast, mountain emergency rescue teams work in a much more integrated manner. In fact lives depend on the ability for rescue workers to support each other. Within the emergency rescue environment, the helicopter pilot is dependent upon the evacuation team to determine a suitable area for pick up.

二话不说是成语吗s of wind direction and proximity to the mountain peaks could result in the death of the pilot and or team. Similarly ropes and rescue attempts are most often performed by two to three individuals working as one unit with one person holding or curing the ropes/ safety systems and the others curing the victim and transporting the victim to safety. Clearly there are various levels in which a team functions. In order to assist and develop the skills required to foster a team environment, it is critical for the individuals to understand the differences amongst various "team" environments.
I would like to u the comparison of America's pastime, baball, to the global珍珠婚 sport, soccer, to gain a better understanding of teamwork. Prior to examining the two sports, it is important to understand that a broader definition of a team environment in sports could include social interaction, commitment to the team, and a n of belonging. However the primary goal in professional sports is to be 碑文精选victorious. Victory is achieved through on field process which are fostered through morale and "off field" bonding. Ultimately it is the process on the playing field that illustrate the results of teamwork and showca teamwork in action. For this reason I will focus and discuss on field activity.
When examining different levels of teamwork, a framework of questions needs to be developed. The questions could include:
• What level of interaction do team members have with each other?
• How often does this level of interaction occur?
• How dependent are individuals on each other in order to achieve a positive outcome?
• How fluid/ dynamic is the environment in which the team performs?
2.1 Soccer or Baball, which is more team oriented?
In examining the team concept within the sports of baball and soccer, attention will be focud only on the field of play (the actual process of competing within a game). Bad on the questions above, soccer would be considered a sport requiring greater interaction amongst the players necessary for a positive outcome. In relation to the question above regarding interaction, frequency, dependency, and fluidity, consider the following points in

• In soccer there are 10 players and a goalie. Within any given game it is common 显示器排行榜for any player to pass the ball to another player including the goalie. Within 志愿活动有哪些baball the interaction of players is limited defensively to only certain players (for example a left fielder would never throw the ball to a right fielder). In addition in baball the offensive interaction, which is not a pass/ receive relationship but more a succession of individual offensive attempts at bat is limited to only the players in clo proximity within the batting line up.
