Discussion Board 4-6 paragraphs

Sometime in your life, you may have wound up on a team that did not function correctly. On the other hand, when you work with a team that functions how a team should, the difference is very noticeable. For your Discussion Board, think of a time when you had a dysfunctional team and then another time when you had a team that functioned well. For assistance with your assignment, please use your text, Web resources, and all course materials.

  • Answer the following questions:
    • Discuss an experience you have had with a team that struggled and never really got to the point of functioning smoothly. Explain the factors that might have contributed.
    • Discuss an experience you have had with a team that came together and was highly effective. Explain the factors that contributed.
