Team Leadership
General Manger
Success of team is dependent on a number of properties. Such is what provides guidelines to having an efficient team. For any team to be in cohesive there needs to be a unified commitment from its members. This means that the focus point for achieving results is team work (Glenn, 2010). Secondly, a good team has competent membership composition. This is to mean that members have to have quality skills for the task at hand. A team also needs to have clearly defined inspiring goal. Vision for what is to be achieved should be clear and easy to understand for the team.
The atmosphere of working needs to be collaborative for the members to fully explore their talents with support from each other to work towards the stated goals. In addition, the team should have a culture which sets standards for the group. Of most significant, a team needs to have support from the outside. This support should come with adequate resources and other inputs that the team may require for it to be successful in achieving its goals (Glenn, 2010).
My team to will need a lot of support from the company as whole and other departments. The culture of the company to give departments and their heads free will to confer with, and work with members of the department independently is quite effective hence; there will be minimal challenges for the team in establishing the department to a mature standard. The urgency of the situation is also much since results are key to the success of company. It may take longer however for the objectives to be fully achieved.
Evaluation of Team Members Based On Their Personality and the Theory Used
As the team leader of the team that is going to spearhead the new department which will grow the company into newer heights in the market, key success points greatly depend on type of leadership I will provide. I have assessed my personality...
I have qualities that allow me to be categorized in three leadership models, these are situational, since I am practical, I can make effective decisions depending with the situation (Glenn, 2010). Am also relational in nature, focusing on establishing connection between me and other people, hence the team will have cohesion and the last theory is participative theory. I will not only be the leader but also a co-worker to the members of our team. I will be answerable, flexible and adaptable to the circumstances that will occur in the course of business. I will personally use my expertise to set example for the team and to inspire and motivate the members of my team.
As a good team leader, I will give guidance and support to every member of the team, making sure I work with each in person in every task that I will dedicate to them. In this view, I also realize I have a much endowed team with all the necessary skills to perform the task designated to us. However, it is also imperative for me to know the capabilities of each individual that I will work with. Thus, knowing that I will be the leader of the people I have served with in this company for quite some time, I am happy since I personally know each of my team's members. This implies that I will not be giving the workers much responsibility than their experience allows them to handle (Kouzes & Posner, 2010). I will therefore build a very strong team through operational relations.
There are two people who have the ENTJ personality type. These people are quite result oriented and have very low tolerance to incompetence. They are also visionary and pose as natural leaders (Hartzler, 2005). They however depend on the feedback they get from audience hence need all the support they can get from the other team players. I dealing with David, Caleb and Matt who are members…
